About this episode:
In this episode of the Thrive with Cate Podcast, Cate Stillman is joined by spiritual author, intuitive guide, and former lawyer Patrick Paul Garlinger for a rich, multidimensional conversation on bending time, identity, depth work, and awakening within modern professional life.
Patrick shares his unconventional journey from Spanish literature professor to New York City lawyer—and ultimately into a life devoted to spiritual inquiry, intuition, and channeled wisdom. Together, Cate and Patrick explore how deeply ingrained identities, cultural conditioning, and productivity-driven mindsets shape our experience of time, growth, and selfhood.
At the heart of the conversation is Patrick's concept of "Bending Time" not as a productivity hack, but as a spiritual and relational practice of seeing the present without projecting the past onto it. They unpack how we unconsciously relate to people, work, and ourselves through old filters, and how true transformation requires slowing down, entering vulnerability, and allowing depth to emerge organically.
Cate weaves in reflections from her work with Club Thrive, including the distinction between growth paths and depth paths, somatic healing, leadership, and the necessity of safe containers for professionals undergoing identity shifts. Patrick speaks candidly about depression, childhood trauma, intuition, channeling, and why not all healing is fast or meant to be.
Rather than offering surface-level self-improvement, this episode invites listeners into a more honest relationship with time, becoming, and the unknown where awakening unfolds one step at a time.
