For the past fifteen years, I’ve been on a deep healing journey. I regularly engage relative strangers in conversation about topics relating to consciousness, transformation and psychedelics (sometimes to their annoyance). I've been dancing around starting a podcast for a couple years now. My imposter syndrome has kept me thinking I don't have anything worthwhile to share, while I vainly attempt to find a community with whom I resonate. I've been fortunate to work with some really gifted practitioners during my journey. They not only gave me tools to heal, they gave me PERMISSION to heal. My intention in producing and distributing The Permission Slip podcast is to share knowledge of their talents with the rest of the world. Many of us have been programmed to believe that healing only comes from those in the medical profession who have gone through a particular set of training protocols. This is not true. Doctors and therapists and the like are (mostly) well-meaning and very good at what they do. Sometimes, more often than we are maybe lead to believe, what they recommend or do is not what is truly needed for healing. In the spirit of the following passage, I'm committing to a minimum of six podcasts that will be discussions with practitioners and healers from whom I've derived personal benefit. The purpose of this effort is therefore to shed light on the diverse ways of healing as well as moving into right relationship with oneself.

This episode kicks off Season 3 with our third conversation to celebrate her first book, Becoming You.

This time we're celebrating her debut book, Becoming You (Lisa Hagen Books), out September 29th in print and e-book. Laura never set out to write a book. Back in 2023 she began typing out answers to one simple question for her guides — "What's most important today?" — and sharing them with clients.

We trade stories about canceled flights, furrowed eyebrows as an early-warning system for anger, feeling fine after 10-hour drives, finding money on the sidewalk, always finding parking, and the Chinese money frog. Laura also has a real-time realization about where her lifelong habit of always looking happy came from, and we talk about why so many kids today feel so much, what it means to have chosen our experiences from a higher perspective, and why everyone needs a woo crew.</p> <p>Then the Collective comes through to answer my question about whether Becoming You should be read aloud — and to remind us that there's no one-size-fits-all, that you're a different person every time you open the book, and that the whole point is to soften your nervous system into peace.

She was schoolteacher, mom and wife who appeared to have it all yet hid her depression from the world. Listen as she tells the story of divine guidance that changed everything and unlocked her multidimensional gifts that she now shares with the world. 1:29:06 yes <p>It turns out I had two connections to Laura (at least that I know of) in the 3D. We were first introduced in the summer of 2022. I had my first intuitive reading with her in September of that year. Laura is an absolute gem of a human - probably the happiest person you will ever meet. She and the guidance she brings through from beyond the veil has been absolutely instrumental in keeping me grounded and assisting in my integration of several very powerful psychedelic experiences. <br> Laura is a former schoolteacher who followed the call of her soul into the realm of conscious channeling and intuitive healing. In this installment of The Permission Slip Laura shares the raw, beautiful story of her awakening—how she moved from burnout and people-pleasing into alignment with her deepest truth. Her journey is one of radical trust: leaving the known, shedding the "good girl" identity, and allowing a completely different kind of intelligence to lead.<br> We talk about what it means to receive guidance from beyond the veil, how to discern divine truth from fear, and why so many of us are being called to live and lead in new ways. Laura shares how the channeling process works for her, how she holds space for others in their own expansion, and why accessing your multidimensional self doesn’t require escaping the human experience—it deepens it. This episode is an invitation to step into your own intuitive power, remember who you really are, and allow the unseen world to guide the seen.</p> <h3>Laura's Bio</h3> <p>An elementary school teacher, a nanny, an energy healer and a happiness coach!

With the help of her husband, she has passionately survived guiding her four boys into adulthood! Her spiritual journey began in the fall of 2014 when she found herself living the picture perfect life, but never feeling worse. “I was sad, depressed, feeling utterly hopeless, not to mention completely stressed out, and I truly had no idea why.” She had been experiencing severe physical dizziness and had spent over a year searching for answers within the medical community. The cause was never determined.
