In this flipped podcast, Luke interviews me to explore some of the things I learned on my quest to live authentically.

Ep. 35 - On Death and Rebirth (A Meditation)

The Hindus call it Samsara, the wheel of life. We live, we die, we live again – and the cycle continues. But is there a way to “die before death”? Can we learn the lesson without losing our body and realize Nirvana in this lifetime? Listen to find out :)  It's best to listen to this episode in a space where you can sit or lay comfortably, unbothered, for the duration of the podcast.
