Self-awareness! Mindfulness teaches #Duality

Welcome to The Process, where craftsmanship meets consciousness. Hosted by Michael Outlaw—drum builder, woodworker, songwriter, and seeker—this podcast explores what it means to wake up while living an ordinary life.These aren’t sermons or self-help lectures. They’re honest conversations about awareness, identity, creativity, music, family, purpose, and the lessons hidden in everyday moments. From building handcrafted drums out of reclaimed wood to discovering stillness in the middle of life’s chaos, every episode is an invitation to slow down, question what you think you know, and reconnect with what has always been here.If you’ve ever felt like there’s something deeper beneath the noise…If you’re searching for peace without pretending…Or if you simply love stories about music, wood, life, and the human experience…Pull up a chair.The coffee’s hot.The shop’s open.And the conversation is just getting started.Because awakening isn’t about becoming someone new… it’s about remembering who you already are.Drums. Wood. Life. Awakening.Trust the Process
