  • Talking About Our True Nature
    May 28 2024
    In this episode of No Expectations, Andrew nurses a bite from a lost dog. As he tends to his wound, his mind wanders to the deeper questions of life, sparking a profound yet lighthearted conversation with Jen. Together, they peel back the layers of everyday existence to reveal the essence of our being. With each anecdote and shared laughter, they explore the idea that perhaps our true nature is not so different from that of the dog—instinctual, present, and full of unconditional love. They ponder the Zen concept that we are all connected, each of us a unique expression of the universe experiencing itself. As the episode unfolds, Andrew and Jen invite listeners to consider the masks we wear and the roles we play. They delve into the notion that beneath the surface, we are all beings of light on a journey of discovery, learning to embrace our vulnerabilities and celebrate our shared humanity.

A Great Take on Spirituality

I love the conversational style and dynamic that Andrew and Jen possess. It's like eavesdropping in on someone's conversation about spirituality, yoga, and zen. I learned something.
