Summary

| 0:00.0 | If you allow some quiet moments in there, something much bigger than what you thought |
| 0:06.6 | you were starts to enter that picture. Who am I? Starts to become, what is it, who are we? |
| 0:19.2 | Hello, beautiful people. Welcome back to the Know They Self podcast where every single week we have the opportunity to sit down and have a conversation with somebody who can help you and me live a more liberated human experience. Now, today's episode is very interesting. I feel like I say that every time because, in my opinion, they all are very interesting. |
| 0:39.5 | But today is very unique individual. Jim George is my guest today. And he is somebody that I actually got introduced through a mutual friend, Matt, through a guest series. Some of you guys may know. And he was sort of described to me initially as this mystic from the Venice Canal, as this mysterious |
| 0:55.2 | creature who helps you tap into the truth of who you are, into the truth of this moment, |
| 1:00.1 | and to find stillness. |
| 1:02.0 | And if I had to describe him in my own words, I would say that he's an expert in meditation |

| 1:18.9 | Beautiful. |

| 1:21.0 | Thank you. |
| 1:21.9 | This is a pleasure. |
| 1:23.0 | Such an honor to have you. |
| 1:24.3 | Oh, I love what you are doing. |
| 1:26.4 | I really do. |
| 1:28.3 | Thank you. Thank you. Congratulations. Thank you so much. Normally I'm in the hot seat. Now we're going to switch turns. |
| 1:33.8 | Sure, sure. Yeah. This is still very cool. It is very cool. Yeah. Yeah. So just to give a little bit of |
| 1:41.1 | context, I've done a couple sessions with you where I'll just come over to your house and for an hour and a half, two hours, we'll just drop in and talk about life. But that is the probably most shallow description of what I could say that we do. We really drop into deep stillness, deep presence and reflect on the true nature of ourselves, which is so rare to be able to find somebody |
| 2:02.0 | that can do that with and have conversations to that depth. And so it's been something that I've |
