Today, Michael welcomes New York Times bestselling author, speaker, and teacher, Laura Day. Laura has spent four decades using intuition to help individuals and billion-dollar companies alike identify and achieve their goals. In her latest book, _The Prism: Seven Steps to Heal Your Past and Transform Your Future,_ Laura reveals the seven points in our growth that can hinder us or help us thrive. By using intuitive methods to examine our roles, beliefs, and realities, we can remake our world, improving everything from relationships to wealth, and turning our life’s wrongs into rights.

*Conversation highlights include:*

-About _The Prism,_ — seven steps to heal your past and transform your future by changing what you do, not who you are

-The “tiny change” approach Laura used to survive a traumatic childhood becomes a teachable system

-Research shows how rehashing old traumas retraumatizes, and how moving toward goals brings old patterns to the surface to be changed

-Healing without knowing “the why,” and how growth happens in forward movement

-The Seven Pieces of Self and Seven Life Areas: foundations, competence, will/drive, heart/value, expression, vision, unity—each with concrete practices

-Why the most hidden, shamed place you’ve worked hardest on often becomes your superpower

-The importance of documenting, testing, and using your intuition rather than blindly “believing”

-Laura’s practice of weekly nonlocal “sleep work” with friends; writing intentions, comparing results, watching life move

-Where to find Laura; her daily Instagram practice; requesting _The Prism_ at your local bookstore – and more!

Next, Michael leads a guided meditation on escaping limited paradigms and waking up to your vibrational legacy of love.
