I’m Stephanie O’Dea, a New York Times bestselling author and longtime advocate for slow living. Each week, I share simple, practical ways to create a calmer, more intentional life—without chasing productivity, perfection, or someone else’s version of success. This podcast isn’t about doing more. It’s about doing what matters, at a pace that actually feels good. We talk about real life—routines, relationships, time, health, home, and the quiet decisions that shape your days. You’ll hear solo episodes, honest conversations, and occasional coaching moments designed to help you step back, reset, and move forward with clarity. If you’re ready to feel more grounded, more present, and more like yourself again, you’re in the right place.","last_synced_at":null,"page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/slow-living-living-fully-without-hustle-or-hype-4139581"},"episode":{"title":"Slow Living, Social Media, and AI","slug":"slow-living-social-media-and-ai","published_at":"2026-05-04T09:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/slow-living-living-fully-without-hustle-or-hype-4139581/slow-living-social-media-and-ai","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/slow-living-living-fully-without-hustle-or-hype-4139581","url":"https://stephanieodea.com/podcast","audio_url":"https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/episodes.captivate.fm/episode/c3c64825-25a6-4ee7-b167-6b7551c202a2.mp3","summary":"BUY THE SLOW LIVING BOOK HERE!
