About this episode
You don't need months to change course. Sometimes all it takes is one intentional day — and a nervous system that's ready to receive it.
In this episode, Laurie shares the story of a pivotal retreat and breaks down why a single day in the right environment, with the right community, can genuinely shift your life direction. This is about more than mindset — it's about regulation.
In this episode, Laurie covers:
- Why life direction is a nervous system problem, not a willpower problem
- The difference between scarcity-mode and abundance-mode — and how each shapes your health, clarity, and finances
- What happened at a post-election retreat in Bolinas with 60+ community leaders — and why it worked
- Why accountability and community are what most wellness commitments are missing
- The Root to Rise lens: Reclaim (Stage 2) — investing in yourself and asking: Am I enough to be invested in?
- Why your self-care is, quite literally, world peace
