In this deeply personal solo episode of the Mindfulness Exercises Podcast, Sean Fargo, founder of Mindfulness Exercises and former Buddhist monk, shares a vulnerable update on his own mindfulness journey.

Set against the quiet backdrop of a rainy day in Berkeley, Sean opens up about his recent conversations with Sophie McLean and Anthony Abbagnano—two teachers whose work has helped him reconnect to the power of self-love, purpose, and conscious connected breathing.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✔ How self-love and purpose are intertwined in the mindfulness path

✔ The role of conscious, connected breathing in healing and transformation

✔ Why even experienced teachers still wrestle with imposter syndrome

✔ A gentle practice to work with your past and envision your future

This episode is an invitation to pause, breathe, and reconnect with the deeper “why” behind your practice.

Whether you’re a seasoned mindfulness teacher or simply finding your footing, Sean’s reflections offer a spacious reminder that self-love is not a luxury—it’s the foundation.
