You have thoughts—but you are not your thoughts.

In this solo episode of Presently Aquí, Claudia explores how the thoughts and beliefs we carry can be shaped by childhood experiences, conditioning, relationships, and the world around us—and why learning to observe those thoughts is such an important part of knowing ourselves.

Through mindfulness and meditation, we can begin creating space between our thoughts and recognize that we don't have to believe or react to everything the mind tells us.

Instead of:

Thought → Emotion → Reaction

We can practice:

Thought → Awareness → Choice

Claudia also shares the meditation practice that first helped her discover the space between her own thoughts more than 20 years ago and offers a question for deeper reflection:

What thought have I been carrying as truth that may no longer belong to me?

Because the goal isn't to silence the mind.

It's to remember who is observing it.

Remember that the breath is the secret... and always do your best to lead with love.

What if the deepest healing isn't about becoming someone new... but remembering who you've always been?

In this heartfelt episode of Presently Aquí, I sit down with Ber-Henda Williams—a bilingual poet, storyteller, media producer, and founder of Culture Shift(Hers) Unite™—a womanist multimedia platform exploring storytelling, civic imagination, relational leadership, and communal care. Through her work, Ber-Henda creates spaces where people can reimagine more humane ways of living, leading, and belonging together.

Together, we explore what it means to move from survival to belonging, the wisdom of mindfulness, ancestral remembrance, identity, community, and the healing power of simply coming home to ourselves.

✨ In this episode, we explore:

• Why belonging begins within
• Mindfulness as a practice of remembrance
• The importance of community and relational healing
• Women's wisdom and the sacred feminine
• How storytelling shapes identity and healing
• Creativity, poetry, and imagination as pathways to transformation
• Living with greater intention, authenticity, and compassion

Ber-Henda's reflections remind us that before the world gave us labels, expectations, and identities... we already belonged. If you've ever felt disconnected from yourself, questioned where you belong, or longed to live more authentically, this conversation is an invitation to pause, breathe, and remember.

Who are you when emotions arise?

In this solo episode, Claudia Torres explores how emotions are not something to fear or suppress—they're invitations to know ourselves more deeply. From anger and grief to joy and peace, every emotion carries wisdom when we learn to observe it instead of becoming it.

Together, we'll explore trauma responses, mindfulness, self-compassion, and the transformative practice of validating yourself rather than abandoning yourself. Whether you're navigating difficult emotions or simply seeking a deeper understanding of who you are, this episode offers gentle guidance to help you reconnect with your authentic self.

Because the goal isn't to eliminate your emotions.

It's to remember that you are not your emotions—you are the awareness experiencing them.

Guest Nathaniel Gillis joins me for a thought-provoking conversation exploring consciousness, discernment, anomalous phenomena, and the hidden power of self-awareness.

Nathaniel is the founder of Necronetics, a research framework dedicated to studying anomalous intelligences, and the host of ParaSymposia. As an international lecturer and religious demonologist, his work examines possession accounts, contactee experiences, and abduction reports as Interface Events to be thoughtfully explored rather than simply believed or dismissed.

Together, we move beyond fear-based discussions of paranormal phenomena and into something far more universal: the importance of knowing ourselves.

What happens when mindfulness meets anomalous research? Can self-awareness deepen our discernment? And how do we begin to distinguish between our conditioning, our thoughts, and our authentic selves?

Rather than asking you what to believe, this conversation invites you to become more curious, more present, and more deeply connected with yourself.

My hope is that, by the end of this episode, you'll find yourself reflecting on one simple question:

Who am I when I truly know myself?
