#57: No guest but nuggets - The one on Floods, full spirits and relationship with food.

The Busy Being Born Podcast

In this post floods episode under a clear sky, the BBB duo have a No guests but nuggets off shoot episode to do a casual catch up on their mind spaces and seasons in life. From Kigondu’s perspective shifts on ‘settling down’, companionship, fasting, music and more, to Kamande’s transitions at work, new found meditation partners, parenting updates and so on. The episode which explores themes around intentionality, friendship and planting seeds of compassion and wisdom also glazes over the folly of comfort of the middle class, capitalism, systemic rot in governance and the need for overhauls in systems and perspectives around politics and leadership. A slight highlight on sieving our thoughts and the stories our minds tell us as a method to overcoming anxiety is given, even as more seeds on mindful awareness and being present are sown. A short and wholesome listen.
