Ep 19: Trauma, Seeking, and the Stillness Beneath It All
Exploring the unique life behind bars to the stillness of Zen meditation, Jody Williams shares how presence—not perfection—became his path.
In this episode, we unpack the layers of his path of life experiences, and beliefs shape boundaries, and the uncomfortable truths of working with inmates while wrestling with his own ego.
From guiding prisoners through mindfulness to sitting across from convicted killers, Jody doesn’t just talk about practice—he lives it. His path is one of direct experience, fierce honesty, and service to others.
This conversation doesn't shy away from the edge and goes deep—because that’s exactly where transformation happens.
