What if the chaos you're feeling isn't a sign you're failing — but a call to come home to yourself?

In this deeply moving episode, Leonie Dawson invites you into Day 1 of her transformational 2026 Dream Quest. This isn't your typical goal-setting workshop. This is soul work for creative, neurodivergent entrepreneurs who are ready to reclaim their joy, power, and dreams in a world that feels overwhelming.

Leonie shares the profound "terrarium analogy" — a framework for understanding how to create the perfect conditions for your dreams to flourish. She walks you through what truly needs to be in your energetic container for the year ahead, and what needs to be lovingly released.

You'll discover how to protect your inner world while navigating external chaos, why your nervous system is the most important business tool you have, and how to soften into loveliness even when everything feels hard.

Drawing on ancient wisdom and modern neuroscience, Leonie weaves together stories of her three wise elders, the strength of your ancestors, and practical spiritual tools to help you craft 2026 as your most powerful year yet.

This episode is medicine for overwhelmed hearts and overstimulated nervous systems. It's permission to slow down, to tend to yourself first, and to build your life and business from a place of deep knowing rather than constant doing.

What we cover:

• Your terrarium matters more than your to-do list — The conditions you create around your dreams determine whether they flourish or wither. What's in your energetic environment?
• You come from an unbroken line of survivors — Your ancestors survived famines, wars, ice ages, and climate change. Their strength, innovation, and courage live in your bones.
• Nobody can steal your joy — External chaos doesn't get to determine your internal state. You have sovereignty over your one precious life.
• Nervous system first, strategy second — When your nervous system is dysregulated, no amount of planning will help. Tend to your inner world first.
• Soften into loveliness, not hardness — The most resilient people don't become jaded by hardship — they become more receptive to beauty, gratitude, and love.
• This is soul work, not surface work — Real transformation happens when you weave intuition and spirituality back into your practical plans.
• Permission to release what's not yours — You don't have to carry the weight of the world. Focus on what's actually in your terrarium.
• Beauty and awe are revolutionary acts — Like Aunt Lucy seeing the mountains for the 90th year with fresh wonder, staying open to beauty is a form of resistance.
• Your one precious life is non-negotiable — No external circumstance gets to diminish your life force or derail your dreams from their rightful place.
• Coming home to yourself is the work — In a world pulling you in a thousand directions, centering in your deepest knowing is the most radical thing you can do.
