#215: Protecting your peace in a world that profits from your chaos

Is this really worth losing your peace over? That’s the question Joshua Church invites us to live by in this powerful solo episode of The Way You Lead. In a world constantly pulling at our attention—and our nervous systems—Joshua explores the daily practice of protecting your peace. Drawing inspiration from Michael Singer and the simple yet profound lessons of life (like getting cut off in traffic), he breaks down how we give away our power and how to start reclaiming it. What we cover: * How to shift from reacting to allowing * Why peace is a muscle, and how to build it * The spiritual paradox of “trying” to be peaceful * A Buddhist parable that might just change your week * Flipping the script on success and redefining what you’re really working toward If you’ve ever felt hijacked by a comment, a headline, or a stranger’s actions—this is your reminder: You don’t have to give it your energy. Listen in and reclaim your peace.
