Many of us spend our days moving from one thing to the next without questioning the pace we’ve become accustomed to. Work, responsibilities, plans and goals can easily create the feeling that life is something happening just beyond the next task on the list.

This conversation explores what happens when we encounter places, moments and experiences that operate differently. Using reflections inspired by a visit to Amsterdam in November, the episode looks at our relationship with urgency, attention, presence and the often-overlooked value of moving through life a little more slowly.

Along the way, we explore why some of our most meaningful memories come from unplanned moments, why transitions can be difficult to appreciate while we’re living through them, and why paying attention may matter more than finding extra time.

If you’ve ever felt like life is passing by while you’re busy trying to keep up with it, this episode may give you something worth reflecting on.
