In this deeply raw and liberating episode of The Mindful Journey, host Sana sits down with award-winning writer and mindfulness coach Marijke McCandless, author of Naked in the Now: Juicy Practices for Getting Present. Together, they explore how shedding emotional armor and connecting with the sensual now can be a powerful path to healing. Marijke shares her unique “inner striptease” method to break free from limiting beliefs, and how her journey through infidelity, PTSD, and childhood trauma led her to profound self-acceptance and spiritual awakening.
