What happens when we shift our state out of the ordinary? Life gets unstuck, that’s what. In this episode, we explore trance as a natural, necessary part of human experience — a doorway into creativity, healing, intimacy, and meaning. From jazz concerts to cold water plunges, we reflect on how trance touches our lives more often than we think — and how we might consciously welcome it in.
