Mindfulness Meditation with Samantha Plavins for “Tuning In and Stepping Out”

If you loved our conversation with Sam Plavins about stepping off the hustle treadmill and redefining success, you won’t want to miss this special After Hours episode. This isn’t just another interview—it’s an experience.

Sam invites us into a guided meditation, designed to help you step out of the daily grind and into a space of reflection, presence, and possibility. Whether you’re an entrepreneur navigating uncertainty, a creative feeling stuck, or someone simply craving a moment of stillness, this episode is for you.

What to Expect from This Episode

Unlike the main episode, where Sam shared her journey from corporate burnout to global walking adventures, After Hours is a deep-dive into tuning in and stepping out—tuning into yourself and stepping out of fear, pressure, and external expectations.

⚡ Reconnect with your inner voice—quiet the noise of productivity culture and tap into what truly matters.

⚡ Release the pressure to have it all figured out—embrace the unknown and trust your next steps.

⚡ Ground yourself in the present moment—because life isn’t in the future, it’s happening right now.

This meditation is inspired by Sam’s own transformation and her journey through Bhutan—where the country measures Gross Domestic Happiness over GDP, shifting the focus from constant striving to deep fulfillment.

Who is this episode for?

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by expectations, caught in a cycle of doing, or unsure of your next move, this episode will help you pause, reset, and find clarity.

✨ Entrepreneurs and creatives feeling drained from always chasing the next milestone.

✨ High-achievers who struggle to slow down without guilt.

✨ Anyone looking for a guided practice to step away from stress and into peace.

How to Listen & Apply This Practice

🌟 Find a quiet space and set aside 10–15 minutes for yourself.

🌟 Let go of expectations—you don’t have to “do” anything, just listen and allow.
