Mindfulness, Meditation, and Life Transitions with Grier

IDK My BFF Jil with Jiliane Patriarca

The gem drop from Grier: “The one thing that we can always count on is change. And that is life because life is ever-expanding and changing. And we can either ride that wave or be dragged along kicking and screaming.”

In this episode, Jiliane and Grier discuss the profound impact mindfulness can have on personal growth and inner peace. They also reminisce about their past in the wedding and events industry, where they both worked before making a transition into coaching and consulting. Grier shares how she got into wedding photography, which she enjoyed for a long time before circumstances led her to explore other paths.

For more than 30 years, Grier has been studying, teaching, and practicing meditation. Grier is a mom and a multi-talented individual with various interests, including dance, yoga, hiking, and traveling.

Grier's journey into mindfulness and meditation began during her teenage years when she moved to California to pursue her dream of dancing with the San Francisco Ballet. During this time, she stumbled upon a bookstore that piqued her curiosity in the occult, astrology, and tarot. This curiosity eventually led her to explore deeper spiritual practices, including meditation.

Over the years, Grier found that her heart and soul yearned for a more lasting impact on people's lives. She now shares her expertise and wisdom through coaching services, helping others discover their most peaceful, powerful, and joyful selves.
