Or listen to The Gentle Pathcast:
A podcast for slow living, gentle productivity, and intentional life.
The Gentle PathCast offers soft reflections on creating space, setting mindful boundaries, and finding your own pace in a world that often moves too fast.
Each short, calming episode invites you to pause, breathe, and reconnect with what truly matters — whether you’re listening during a quiet morning, a peaceful walk, or an evening wind-down.

, this podcast is a soft place to land — and a reminder that you don’t need to have it all figured out to live well.
Somewhere along the way, we started measuring life instead of living it.
We track our steps, optimise our mornings, analyse our moods — and yet many of us feel strangely disconnected from our own days. In this episode, we explore what happens when experience itself quietly disappears from our lives.
This gentle reflection is about the extinction of experience: how constant optimisation, efficiency, and abstraction pull us out of our bodies, our senses, and our sense of belonging. And more importantly, how we might begin to return.
Not through doing more.
Not through fixing ourselves.
But through noticing again.
We talk about rewilding our days, sensing the world with fresh attention, and remembering that meaning doesn’t come from control — it comes from contact.
🎧 A quiet invitation to feel your life from the inside again.
🌿 Listen slowly.
