Description

What if chasing isn’t the answer? In this soul-reset of an episode, Ben Johnson explores the hidden cost of constant striving — for new roles, clients, success, or simply relief from overwhelm. Drawing from the quiet wisdom of walking meditation, Polynesian wayfinding, and even an unforgettable tale involving a raft and testicles (!), Ben offers a grounded alternative to the modern chase: a posture of orientation, presence, and letting what comes, come. Whether you’re stuck in pursuit or craving clarity, this episode is a gentle call back to steadiness, intention, and the art of sensing and responding. For thoughtful leaders, founders, and parents navigating transition — this one’s for you.
