Description

In this profound episode of The Amazing Authorities Podcast, host Mitch Carson speaks with Tom Cronin, former high-flying finance broker turned global meditation teacher, author, and founder of The Stillness Project.


Once living a “Wolf of Wall Street” lifestyle filled with stress, late nights, and burnout, Tom shares how discovering Transcendental Meditation transformed his anxiety-ridden existence into a path of peace, purpose, and teaching. Today, he runs retreats worldwide, guiding leaders, entrepreneurs, and seekers to harness meditation for both spiritual awakening and peak performance.


Together, Mitch and Tom explore the difference between spirituality and religion, why meditation is essential in today’s chaotic world, and how accessing stillness can actually unlock productivity, creativity, and business success.


You’ll learn:

  • How meditation can heal stress, insomnia, and emotional reactivity

  • The surprising link between spirituality and quantum physics

  • Why fulfillment can’t be bought—but must be cultivated from within

  • How leaders and professionals use meditation for peak performance

  • Tom’s journey from finance to teaching retreats in Bali and beyond


If you’ve ever wondered how to balance material success with inner peace, this episode will show you the power of meditation to change not only your mind—but your entire life.


Tom Cronin spent 26 years in finance markets as one of Australia’s leading bond and swap brokers. He discovered meditation in the early stages of his career, when the anxiety and chaos he was experiencing had hit a crisis point, and it completely transformed his world, both personally and professionally. Founder of The Stillness Project, a global movement to inspire one billion people to sit in stillness daily, Tom is passionate about reducing stress and chaos in people’s lives. His ongoing work in transformational leadership coaching and corporate training has seen him working with some of the top companies in the world like Amazon, Boston Consulting Group, Oracle, Harvard Business School, Qantas, UBS and Coca-Cola. He has spoken on stage at conferences and events like Adnews Summit, Afest, Wanderlust and Mind Heart Connect. Tom has six books published and produced the hit documentary film The Portal.
