In this episode, I sit down with my good friend Emily Frieze-Kemeny, for an honest, myth-busting conversation about meditation. We explore what meditation really is, why it matters, and how to make it work in real life—even with a busy schedule, noisy household, or racing mind.

Emily shares her personal journey with meditation, including her experience with transcendental meditation. We talk about the science-backed benefits, why it’s more accessible than you might think, and how meditation can be a practical, powerful tool for grounding, healing, and tuning in.

Whether you’ve never meditated before, or you’re looking to deepen your practice, this conversation will meet you where you're at and help you redefine what meditation can look like for you.
