What if the answer to stress, burnout, and constant distraction isn’t doing more—but learning how to come back into flow?

In this episode, I sit down with Laurie Smith, author of The Flow Habit, to explore how we reconnect with our natural state of presence, creativity, and ease—even in a world that pulls us in a thousand different directions.

Laurie shares how a simple 5–10 minute daily practice became a global flow movement, along with the science behind flow states and why they are essential for our nervous system, our creativity, and our ability to perform at our best.

We explore:

• What it really means to be “in flow”
• The neuroscience behind flow and why it feels so good
• How to reconnect with your spark through small, daily practices
• Why joy is a powerful driver of performance and clarity
• How flow impacts leadership, wellness, and the way we show up in our lives

Laurie also shares a powerful life-changing story that brought her into a deep state of peace in the midst of chaos—and ultimately shaped the work she does today.
