The Pivotal Podcast with Kristine Axe

Ep. 27 - "I Feel Like Presence Is Such A Buzzword..."

Season 2 Episode 27

First things first....what's a buzzword? 

Buzzword is defined as - "A word or phrase, often an item of jargon, that is fashionable at a particular time or in a particular context."

If you're someone who follows and engages with any type of personal development work, you likely see the influx of advice, conversations and nudges to 'be present'. 

I had the opportunity to have a beautiful conversation around this with a friend and client and couldn't help but bring the topic to you. As you listen, consider the following: 

- Do you feel that presence is a buzzword? And/Or, do you hear 'presence' spoken about in a way that feels relatable to you? Or, does it feel distant and often unattainable?

- Do you find that presence is easy to practice when there is a positive outcome attached to it? Alternatively, do you feel that presence is hard/impossible to practice when challenging outcomes are present?

- What would it be like if you gave yourself more opportunities to 'be here', acknowledging that your awareness of the moment is what truly matters?

- Can we allow ourselves the full spectrum of things like presence, without solely tying it to positivity?
