In a world addicted to speed and surface, Duane Elgin invites us to slow down and wake up. This episode reclaims the language of aliveness—what it means to be truly alive in a universe that’s conscious, sacred, and evolving. We talk planetary intelligence, soul maturity, and the difference between surviving and soulwalking. A potent initiation into presence.
