This is part one of "things I have learned and changed in the wake of a heart attack at the age of 40". In this episode I explore the topic of mindfulness and meditation. We discuss what it is, how it works, and why I have found it to be a critical part of my recovery and lifestyle. More episodes in this series on the way, with the next one focusing on exercise and nutrition. I hope you enjoy it, and please let me know if you have any questions or feedback! -Adam

This episode is a bit of a departure from leadership. In episode #4 I give a detailed account of what it was like to be blindsided by having a major heart attack at 40, but more importantly a little bit about why it has ultimately been a blessing, and the abundance of lessons I have taken away from the experience that I want to share. 

This is the first episode of a multi-part series, with follow-ups coming that with delve into some of the areas where I have made major changes after having this experience; exercise and nutrition, mindfulness, finding balance, and love/connection. 

I hope you enjoy this deeply personal one - I am so grateful to share it with you.
