Getting Under The Surface (GUTS)
Getting Under The Surface is a podcast that helps listeners improve their mental, physical and emotional health by digging into the connections between mindfulness, meditation, self-care and relationships — including the relationship we have with ourselves. Topics covered include: anxiety, burnout, caregiving, consciousness, grief, illness, loss, meditation, mindfulness, self care, stress, and trauma. Your podcast host, Joey Donovan Guido, is a certified Teacher of Presence Life Coach who works with people to help them be in the present moment more, instead of being ruled by thoughts and emotions. This has an array of benefits, as it helps individuals approach whatever they’re dealing with in life from a place that’s less anxious and stressed — and more calm and connected with their deeper selves.
