In today’s episode, we sit down with our dear friend and neighbour, Luke Bache, in a rich, nourishing, and fun conversation. Together, we explore what an unhurried life means—not avoiding stress, but building resilience and the capacity to move between rest and activation. And how that capacity grows in relationship and community.
Luke shares his journey of choosing joy over societal expectations, helping us rethink what it means to live in alignment with our values. In a world that often pushes productivity and self-reliance, we talk about unlearning these pressures to make space for deeper connection, creativity, and purpose.
Adrien and I reflect on letting go of the constant need to “produce” and creating instead from a place of authenticity. We explore how our relationship with money is shifting from scarcity to abundance. And we talk about the role of community, how a gift economy can bring resilience and shared abundance, freeing us from the drive to manage all on our own.
At times, this was a deeply vulnerable conversation. Luke, a trauma-informed Internal Family Systems therapist, yoga teacher, and retreat leader across the Nordics and Europe, brings his unique perspective on embracing life’s unknowns with compassion and joy.
