Standing Nowhere: Honest conversations about life, faith, and whatever's on my mind.
A podcast for people who don't fit neatly into one box. Host Jacob Buehler, a working father and longtime meditator, talks about life as it's actually lived: solo reflections, conversations with guests, what's happening in the world, and the occasional detour into movies, music, and art.
Spirituality is still part of the mix, from mindfulness to the big questions about trust and meaning, but it's one thread, not the whole show. Some episodes are loose and unscripted. Some are deeper dives. All of them are honest.
No dogma. No guru pedestals. No niche.
If you've ever questioned everything and found some peace in not knowing, or you just want company on the drive, this is for you.

Every Day Something Is Dropped
Awareness is the greatest treasure in my life, and lately I've felt it getting covered up. In this episode, I talk honestly about the habits that have been dulling that clarity — caffeine, late-night routines, social media, comfort habits, and the constant pull to stay stimulated. This isn't a self-help episode, and it's not a grand declaration that I've fixed anything. It's more of a life update: a recognition that some habits don't need to be ripped away by force. Sometimes they're just rea...

The Skin Sheds When It's Ready
There's a version of yourself you can see clearly — and then there's where you actually are right now. That gap can feel like failure. This episode begins with a story about a declined card on my wife's birthday, a Lord of the Rings book hidden at the bottom of a Target basket, and the quiet shame of walking back to the car with nothing. From there, it becomes a reflection on vairagya — the falling away of desire — and why transformation can't always be forced. You can't rip the skin from the...
