Today, Michael welcomes Colette Baron-Reid. Colette is an internationally respected author, artist, educator, spiritual intuitive, medium, and oracle expert. Her best-selling books and oracle cards are published worldwide in 27 languages. She is the founder of Oracle School, a global online learning platform with students in 35 countries, where self-empowerment, co-creation, and ancient oracles meet in a modern, contemporary way. She’s also the creator of the energy psychology technique, “Invision—The Total Mindshift Process.” Her latest book, co-authored with Anna Denning, titled _The Art of Manifesting: A Meditative Drawing Practice to Rewire Your Brain and Create Your Reality_, was recently released through Hay House.

*Conversation insights include:*

-Colette’s origin story: childhood claircognizance, inherited trauma, and the path from addiction to nearly 40 years sober through spiritual practice

-Discovering the “neuro-arts” and how drawing engages new brain circuits so the body “knows it’s real”

-Avoiding the “is it here yet?” trap; celebrate as if it’s happening now and surrender the timing and form

-You keep what you become. Visioning asks: Who must I be? What vibration must I hold to stabilize my results? Plus, a “how to doodle your destiny” live demo

-Rewiring expectation: your brain looks for what you believe—this is where practical mysticism meets neuroplasticity

-Breaking the matrix of fear by radiating compassion where you live and carrying your own “atmosphere”

-With practice, joy becomes your baseline—events pass through but your awareness remains steady

-Collette’s Oracle School: Four-month training using oracle cards for reflection and “next right action” (not prediction)

-Spotlighting *The Art of Manifesting* book with Colette and Anna Denning

Next, Michael leads a guided meditation on choosing joy, feeling ‘all needs met now,’ and giving thanks.
