Who Thought We'd Be Here?
Both seeking answers from the Universe as they turned 30, co-hosts and longtime pals Steven Aigner and John Pugh found themselves improving in ways their younger and much more wild selves could have never seen coming. They began conquering and healing their past selves with unfamiliar mindfulness tools like meditation, yoga, breath-work, journaling, reading transformative books, and experimenting with mind expanding remedies.
Ignited by a passion to help others struggling with complex problems of their own and a desire to create a new narrative surrounding men's mental health in today's modern society, they created their first collaborative podcast "Who Thought We'd Be Here?" This podcast is all about exploring the boundless potential within ourselves, and to inspire each and every one of us to be fearless in our own unique human experience.
Their goal is to make mindfulness more accessible for folks all around the world, and express the genuine benefits of redesigning your life in a more thoughtful way.
We'd love for you to join us on this spiritual journey, as we try to shine a little light into what it really and truly means to be a good human in this Universe.

Who Thought We'd Be Here?
"Rayvin Rey: Overcoming Scarcity, Embracing Patience, & Finding Your Soulmate” EP050 (Pt. 2)
In part two of our conversation with Rayvin Rey, we explore powerful insights on overcoming scarcity mindsets and embracing patience in personal growth. Rayvin shares her thoughts on finding alignment outside of relationships, balancing happiness with financial success, and breaking free from childhood beliefs about money. We discuss how physical activity can help manage stress, the importance of authentic self-expression, and the value of building a supportive community. Rayvin opens up about self-love, giving yourself the care you often seek from others, and nurturing meaningful relationships through attention, space, and listening. She also shares lessons from “The Alchemist” and her take on staying true to yourself, all while reflecting on the deeper meaning of love and how being your own soulmate is the foundation for everything. This episode is packed with wisdom, inspiration, and heartfelt moments you won’t want to miss!
