In Episode 494 of Fishing Without Bait, we welcome back returning guest and clairvoyant medium Santina Grace for the first part of a warm, insightful, and deeply grounding conversation on reconnecting with joy, presence, and peace in today’s chaotic world.
Jim and Santina explore some of the most important emotional and spiritual challenges of our time, including:
• Finding joy in a world that feels overstimulated and overwhelming
• The myth of productivity and how tying your value to output diminishes your sense of self
• How fear fuels anxiety, and why anxiety can only live in the future—not the present moment
• Honoring the small comforts we take for granted—warmth, food, connection, breath
• How to protect your energy from negative media and emotional overload
• The difference between pleasure and true joy
• How children naturally process emotion with immediacy, and why adults lose that instinct
• Using memories and sensory anchors to return to peace during difficult times
• The illusion of separateness and the importance of compassion
• Breaking generational patterns of unworthiness
• Choosing where to place your attention—and therefore your experience
Santina shares wisdom from her years of intuitive work, helping listeners understand how to stay grounded, grateful, and connected even when the world feels chaotic.
Whether you’re struggling with stress, fear, productivity pressure, or just the pace of modern life, this episode offers comfort, clarity, and actionable mindfulness tools you can use right now.
