7. Ego and Identity: Embracing the Fluid Self

It’s Now Again is a podcast of slow, honest conversations with people who have inspired me.I’m Jeremy West, a mindfulness teacher and guide with a secular, psychology based approach, and each episode is a chance to pause and listen in on a real conversation rather than a performance or an interview.Some guests are artists, comedians, teachers, carers, thinkers, or quiet changemakers.Some are people whose way of being in the world has stayed with me over time.Mindfulness is a recurring thread, because it’s been central in my own life, but the conversations are not limited to any single topic or framework.We talk about meaning, change, fear, creativity, love, loss, belief, uncertainty, and what it’s like to live honestly inside a human nervous system.There’s no fixing here.No advice to follow.No conclusions to land on.Just presence, curiosity, and conversation.Alongside the podcast, I host Calm Hours, a free, secular sanctuary where people can rest together without pressure, sharing, or performance.This work is community supported.You can learn more about the podcast, the sanctuary, and what I’m building at <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://jeremywest.net">jeremywest.net</a>.It’s now again.
