I'm done negotiating with reality. This is what happens when you start commanding it instead.For the next year, I'm documenting what happens when you:Stop chasing success and start generating itReplace strategy with pure energetic alignmentBecome a signal so strong that the right people can't help but tune inNo promotion. No marketing. No asking for permission.Just raw documentation of building a media empire through cognitive engineering and energetic mastery.Episodes drop:Tuesdays: Deep-dive experiment documentationFridays: Mini Memo Drops (5-minute brain upgrades)This isn't content. This is energy work disguised as a podcast.

The Secret Experiment Starts NowAfter months of building in secret, Laura finally reveals what she's been creating: a year-long experiment betting her entire business on pure energetic alignment instead of traditional marketing. No promotion, no Instagram strategy, no email campaigns - just raw, authentic creation and the belief that the right people will find it.Topics Include:Why hiding your best work behind a paywall might be killing your businessThe difference between cognitive engineering and personal developmentWhat it means to build from pure energy vs. forced strategyWhy this is literally the worst possible time to launch (and why that's perfect)How this podcast works: Tuesday deep-dives + Friday Mini Memo DropsThe Bottom Line: What if the universe has a bigger algorithm than Instagram?You're not just a listener - you're a witness. Share how you found this experiment:Instagram: @think.lauraHub: thinklaura.comBecause finding this wasn't an accident.

The Framework That Changed EverythingLaura shares how she's used this exact framework to navigate five major life transformations - from her son's diagnosis to rebuilding after divorce to losing 50 pounds. Learn the 5 components that make a one-year bet actually work, plus discover the psychology behind the Hawthorne Effect (why we perform better when being watched).What You'll Learn:The 5-Component One-Year Bet FrameworkWhy a year (not 6 months or 30 days) creates real transformationThe Hawthorne Effect and how to hack your brain with itProcess vs. Outcome (and why this distinction changes everything)Preview of the I-U-A Framework (Interrupt, Upgrade, Activate)The Bottom Line: You don't need to be ready. You just need to commit to a process for one year.Found this in the wild?

The voice that's killing your dreams isn't the mean one. It's the reasonable one.Your biggest dreams don't die in months of deliberation. They die in three seconds flat – murdered by the "smart" voice that sounds exactly like wisdom.In this first Mini Memo Drop, discover why your survival brain is running on code written by your seven-year-old self, and why the most intelligent thing you can do is move before you think.The download: A simple software update that breaks the pattern keeping you stuck. When inspiration hits, you have exactly three seconds to move. Not to complete. Not to perfect. Just to move.Why it matters: That reasonable voice telling you to "think it through" isn't wisdom – it's obsolete programming designed to keep you exactly where you are.Movement is the antidote. Any movement. Even typing one word.Your next download is coming. This time, you'll be ready.Stumbled into this experiment? The universe's algorithm is working. Drop me a signal:Instagram: @think.lauraHub: thinklaura.comTell me what breadcrumb led you here - I'm documenting how reality reorganizes when you stop chasing it.

When Perfectionism Becomes Self-SabotageWhat starts as a spiral of self-doubt becomes a powerful lesson about the difference between building a business and performing success. Watch cognitive engineering happen in real-time as Laura debugs her perfectionist programming.What You'll Learn:The pattern: How insecurity triggers hyper-critical perfectionismWhy filters for your voice are like masks for your appearanceThe podcast vs. business distinction (and why this changes everything)How stripping away ALL the filters made the problems disappearThe exact thought programming that breaks the perfectionist loopCatching yourself in perfectionist loops?

You've already survived the unsurvivable. Your brain just forgot to add it to your resume.That thing that destroyed you? The divorce, diagnosis, betrayal, or loss that split your life into before and after? You survived it. You're here. In this Mini Memo Drop, discover why your brain is treating everyday challenges like death threats when you've already got a PhD in survival.The download: Your brain misfiled your survival story. Instead of filing it under "Proof of What I Can Handle," it filed it under "Never Risk Anything Again." Wrong folder. Wrong lesson. Wrong conclusion.Why it matters: Your nervous system can't tell the difference between "this might be awkward" and "this might kill me." But you've already handled the unhandleable. Everything else is just paperwork.The worst already happened. You're still here. Time to update your security clearance.Already updating your resume? The algorithm is recognizing you as titanium. Send proof of life:Instagram: @think.lauraHub: thinklaura.comTell me what you survived that your brain "forgot" to count - I'm collecting evidence that we're all walking around with outdated threat assessments.

When Giving More Gets You LessLaura uncovers the pattern that's been bleeding her business dry: drastically undercharging while over-delivering, thinking the universe will somehow balance it out. Through a powerful concept called Ayni (sacred reciprocity from Andean philosophy), she realizes that blocking fair exchange actually creates energetic debt for everyone involved. Watch as she catches herself trying to prove her worth by giving it away.What You'll Learn:Why "just put value out there and it will come back" is incomplete (and the teachers vs. sock sellers comparison that proves it)The Ayni principle: How under-pricing creates energetic debt for BOTH partiesWhy $7/day transformation work sends the wrong signal to the universeThe surprising truth about who actually shows up in group programsHow transaction size affects transformation (skin in the game matters)Ready to examine your own energy leaks? Let's connect:Instagram: @think.lauraHub: thinklaura.comTell me: Where are YOU over-delivering and under-receiving?

That thing you can't make yourself do? Your brain did the math and said absolutely not.You're not lazy. You're not lacking discipline. Your brain is running a calculation that's coming up with the wrong answer.In this Mini Memo Drop, discover the formula that's secretly controlling every action you take (or don't take) and why willpower is a losing game against biology.The download: E+S+P = A. Energy plus Safety plus Pleasure equals Action. Your brain runs this equation on everything. If one variable is off, you're not moving. Why it matters: You've been trying to override your operating system instead of working with it. Once you know the math, you can hack the variables. Stop buying productivity apps. You need better math.Let me know you found my experiment!  Instagram: @think.lauraHub: thinklaura.com

When Your Own Medicine Is the CureWeek three hits Laura with a cascade of technical disasters, a MEMO cancellation that triggers old patterns, and the busiest week of her life. Deep in "the goo" of transformation (that disorienting state where your brain can't predict what's coming next), she makes a pivotal decision: use her own product. The revelation? The medicine she needed was already in her cabinet. What You'll Learn:What "the goo state" is and why your brain glitching means transformation is happeningThe shadow side of being a shit-together person (and why perfection blocks shifting)How technical disasters and cancellations might be data points, not verdictsThe medicine cabinet moment: when you forget you already have what you needWhy showing up at 100% presence beats showing up at 100% effortThe Pattern Shift: From: "If it's not working perfectly, I must be on the wrong path" To: "Every grain of sand counts, even when I can't see the scale tipping"Connect with The Bet:Instagram: @think.lauraHub: thinklaura.comFound The Bet? I'm three weeks in and still don't know if anyone's listening. If you're out there, let me know how you found this experiment. Drop me a DM, send an email, leave a review - any signal that you exist would make my day. Because right now I'm just talking into the void and trusting someone needs to hear this.

The Hidden Energy Drain Killing Your MomentumLaura reveals the invisible energy leak that's exhausting you: maintenance energy. Every incomplete commitment - from unused gym memberships to half-started projects to friendships you've outgrown - runs a background process in your brain, draining power all day long. Like having 30 apps running on your phone, these energetic parasites feed on your attention whether you're conscious of them or not.What You'll Learn:Why your brain tracks EVERY incomplete commitment (even the ones you're ignoring)The phone battery analogy that explains your mental exhaustionHow "keeping options open" actually keeps you trappedThe Maintenance Energy Audit that revealed 23 hidden energy leaksWhy releasing incomplete commitments multiplies your available energyThe Pattern Shift: From: "I'm being strategic by keeping multiple options open" To: "Every incomplete thing is a no to something else"Connect with The Bet:Instagram: @think.lauraHub: thinklaura.comWhat's your heaviest energy parasite? The one thing that would feel amazing to finally release? Drop me a message and tell me what you're letting go of today.

Week four brings a breakthrough about success metrics: Laura discovers she's been measuring worth by who stays instead of who transforms. Through patterns caught in MEMO cancellations, Mini Memo questioning, and Instagram overthinking, she uncovers a childhood wound about feeling unwanted that's been driving her to prove value instead of simply being valuable. The revelation? Being a step on someone's journey - not their destination - is the actual win.What You'll Learn:Why the brain's attempt to resolve past events creates present sufferingThe energetic architecture principle: how you build = how you maintainWhy being someone's full staircase is actually failing themThe hermetic principles showing up in unexpected places (masculine/feminine energy balance)How proving expertise can become a safety blanket that suffocates growthThe Pattern Shift: From: "People staying means I'm valuable" To: "People leaving means I succeeded"Key Questions Laura's Asking:Who am I here to serve and how does the universe want me to serve them?Is over-giving in some spaces preventing me from showing up in others?What energy am I building with - and is that the house I want to live in?Connect with The Bet:Instagram: @think.lauraHub: thinklaura.com

This is the last mini memo drop.After catching myself using Friday episodes as an insurance policy against Tuesday's messiness, I'm choosing the experiment over the performance. The mini memos were never about you - they were my safety blanket, my way of proving I'm legitimate while supposedly trusting energy over strategy.In this episode:Why my survival brain keeps trying to add when the solution is to subtractThe real reason I was doing bi-weekly episodes (spoiler: proving energy)How stripping away filters, designs, and production made everything work betterWhy "the energy behind them isn't compatible with where I'm leading myself"The Bet continues Tuesday. Just Tuesday. Because building by subtracting beats performing by adding every single time.

Month one is complete and Laura's pulling back the curtain on what's actually happening. Through tracking metrics across multiple platforms, wrestling with MEMO's unclear identity, catching the Mini Memo safety blanket pattern, and noticing Instagram drift back into overthinking - one truth emerges: confused energy creates stagnation. Plus, a surprising shift at the university signals something bigger wanting to emerge, and the real cost of measuring worth by who stays instead of who transforms becomes impossible to ignore.What You'll Learn:Why sharing your "starting weight" in business matters (even when your brain is screaming to justify it)How the energy you build with becomes the energy you maintain with foreverWhy building from your own needs creates natural demand without sellingThe pattern of proving expertise as a safety blanket that suffocates authenticityWhy simple consistency beats complex systems every single timeThe Pattern Shift: From: "I need to prove I'm legitimate through volume and expertise" To: "Legitimacy is embodied through aligned choices, not manufactured content"Connect with The Bet:Instagram: @think.lauraHub: thinklaura.com

When the Curveball HitsWednesday morning brought the kind of news that rocks your entire world. The test that arrives right after you think you've mastered abundance. This is real-time documentation of what happens when fear shows up - and how an unexpected tool helped shift everything.The track Laura referenced: [Spotify Link Here]The Stakes: "I still don't know what the solution is. But I know this is my ultimate opportunity to face fear in the fucking eyes and walk right through it."Connect with The Bet:Instagram: @think.lauraHub: thinklaura.com

When Three People Tell You the Same Thing, ListenThree different people deliver the same message in one week: slow down and receive. Laura unplugs for 24 hours and discovers an uncomfortable truth - she doesn't know how to relax. When she finally creates space to just be, something unexpected shows up. The universe has its own algorithm, and it responds to energy, not effort. Plus, a breakfast conversation with Mike cracks open MEMO's identity crisis, revealing why confusion creates stagnation and what happens when you finally make the damn decision.What You'll Learn:Why the universe uses synchronicity as your most powerful navigation systemThe hermetic law of gender: masculine doing energy vs. feminine receiving energy and why we leak so much power staying stuck in oneHow constantly producing without space to receive creates energetic stagnationWhy not knowing how to relax is a massive red flag about your relationship with worthinessThe real reason MEMO hasn't been growing (and it's not what you think)Why someone who lives with you is actually the best mirror for your productWhy asking "who can I serve?" led to a new perspectiveThe Pattern Shift: From: "My worth is tied to constant productivity and visible output" To: "Creating space to receive is as valuable as the work itself"Connect with The Bet:Instagram: @think.lauraHub: thinklaura.com

When Everything You've Been Resisting Converges at Once Seven weeks of teaching to blank faces suddenly yields undeniable evidence that working with energy 'works'. A conversation about legitimacy turns into permission to be exactly who and what you are. And when three different identities collide in one week, the only way forward is to embrace your inner quack.What You'll Learn:Why there's always an energetic gap between planting and harvest (and how to trust it)The difference between being seen as legitimate vs. embodying legitimacyHow Human Design became a programming language for reality (and why that makes perfect sense)What happens when you take an esoteric system and apply neuroscience to itThe concept of a 'run rate' business and how it affects identityWhy pausing production can be more powerful than constant creationWhat the 2027 mutation means for anyone building something nowThe Pattern Shift: From: "I need to fit into respected containers to be legitimate" To: "Legitimacy comes from being exactly what you are - even if that's a quack"Connect with The Bet:Instagram: @think.lauraHub: thinklaura.com

Laura discovers that Sunday evening recording has become her perfect weekly closure ritual. This week brought an extraordinary convergence - from an impossible sky on Monday to two mysterious visitors on Thursday, all pointing to the same truth about authentic communication.When a major test shakes everything and demands complete surrender, the resolution arrives in exactly fifteen minutes. This episode reveals what happens when you drop all filters and discover your truth needs no translation.Key Moments:The dome sky download that changes everything about messagingWhy the world might be ready for what you think is too "crazy" to shareThe liberation that comes from letting something be completeTwo visitors, two warnings, and one profound realizationThe fifteen-minute miracle that proves energy over strategyResources Mentioned:Vanessa Henry's Omen Library - scroll down to find the right category for the sign you're receivingConnect with Laura:Instagram: @think.lauraWebsite: thinklaura.comMEMO (The Personal Trainer for your mind): Available at thinklaura.com/getmemoLaura continues The Bet - her year-long experiment in building a business on pure energy instead of strategy. No scripts, no second takes, just the raw documentation of what happens when you trust that you literally cannot say the wrong thing to the right people.Listen to discover why the universe might be sending you messages through the exact channels you're already tuned to receive.

Month two is complete and Laura's discovering the numbers tell a radically different story than her brain's daily broadcast. While daily Instagram views looked pathetic, monthly stats reveal something unexpected. Revenue jumps 15x through one simple shift. The Bet maintains its steady six downloads per episode. And as she flips from screenshots to reels after training the algorithm for two months, the universe demonstrates its sense of humor through perfectly-timed technical glitches that become her best-performing content.What You'll Learn:Why daily observation lies while monthly truth tells a different storyThe one pricing shift that changed everything (and why undercharging is just fear in disguise)How technical glitches during content creation signal you're onto something powerfulThe Pattern Shift: From: "Daily metrics determine whether I'm succeeding or failing" To: "The real story lives in the patterns only monthly data can reveal"Connect with The Bet:Instagram: @think.lauraHub: thinklaura.com
