As artificial intelligence becomes ever more integrated into our lives and workplaces, how do we ensure we don’t lose touch with what makes us human? In this timely conversation, Pierre and Sarah explore the meeting point of AI and mindfulness — the balance between automation and awareness. They reflect on the quote “You will never be able to automate your humanness,” and discuss how to use AI thoughtfully, maintain emotional intelligence, and choose connection over disconnection in a digital world.

As a new year begins, we often focus on what we want to create — but just as important is what we’re ready to let go of.

In this episode of Awakening Mindfulness at Work, Pierre and Sarah explore how letting go can create space for clarity, presence, and more intentional living. They reflect on three key areas where release can be especially powerful: habits that no longer serve us, expectations that quietly create pressure and disappointment, and our complex relationship with to-do lists.

Together, they unpack common patterns such as over-preparing, comparing ourselves to others, believing everything is urgent, and holding ourselves to unrealistic standards — all through a lens of mindfulness, compassion, and practical awareness.

This conversation offers gentle prompts for reflection as you move into the new year, inviting you to soften, simplify, and make room for what truly matters — at work and beyond.

How do we make time truly matter? In this follow-up to Meditation Makes Time, Pierre and Sarah explore how mindfulness sharpens focus and helps us reclaim scattered moments through presence and intention. They discuss the art of noticing when the mind wanders, the power of writing down intentions, and how each day becomes a reflection of the attention we give it. A thoughtful conversation on inhabiting our days with purpose and grace.
