indigenous wisdom | consciousness | cultureJoseph Sanok | The Hum of Life
Joe and I are very much aligned in our perspective and philosophies. In this episode, we discuss the importance of slowing down, being present, creating healthy habits and practicing a lifestyle that affords us a life of authentic joy and healthy relationships.
Joe has crafted his lifestyle very deliberately. He practices a four-day work week and spends lots of time with family. I love his approach to life. He incorporates science, faith, spirituality, systems, and relationships into every aspect of his life. He now experiences what he calls, “the hum of life”. I love that.
This is a very personal interview and one I know you’ll enjoy.

BEST MOMENT
I constantly stop myself during my day and deliberately slow down and ask, “am I here right now, am I fully present”?
