2.5. Life's Lessons in Feathers, Bricks, and Trucks: Finding Mindfulness Through Adversity

Mindful Deconstruction - Rebuild Your Life After Religion by Jeremy West

Episode notes

This is a speech I'm giving at a Toastmasters speech competition tomorrow in which I share my personal journey of recognizing life's subtle and not-so-subtle lessons.

Through the metaphor of feathers, bricks, and trucks, Jeremy explores how life's challenges guide us toward mindfulness and self-discovery.

From career dissatisfaction to a life-altering accident, learn how mindfulness can transform setbacks into opportunities for growth, presence, and purpose.

Discover the importance of tuning into life's gentle nudges before they become harder to ignore.
