We're Moving Too Fast: Why Your Soul Needs Time to Catch Up

In this episode of Chasing Joy, Bryan, Spencer, and Wayne explore a powerful idea that feels almost forgotten in today’s fast-paced world… the art of simply being present.After spending four weeks in the remote desert of Abiquiú, New Mexico, Wayne returns with a deeper understanding of spiritual direction… or what he calls soul companionship. Instead of fixing problems or offering advice, this practice centers on something far more rare… sitting with someone in their pain, listening deeply, and creating space for clarity to emerge.Together, the guys unpack what it means to “sit in the fire” with someone… why most of us are moving too fast for our own well-being… and how learning to slow down might be the key to healing, connection, and a more meaningful life.From personal stories of trauma and transformation to practical reflections on mindfulness, grief, and emotional awareness, this conversation invites you to pause… breathe… and reconnect with what actually matters.Whether you’re navigating stress, searching for purpose, or simply feeling overwhelmed by the pace of life in the modern world… this episode offers a different path forward.Less fixing… more listening.More presence… more joy.
