Today, Michael welcomes Dr. John Demartini. John is a world-renowned human behavior expert, educator, and bestselling author whose work bridges psychology, neuroscience, philosophy, and human performance. From overcoming dyslexia and a speech impediment to becoming a globally sought-after speaker and founder of the Demartini Method, he has dedicated more than five decades to understanding what drives human excellence. His teachings focus on awakening inner genius, aligning with one's highest values, and transforming challenges into catalysts for growth and fulfillment.
Conversation Highlights Include:
-A powerful story of overcoming dyslexia, dropping out of school, and learning to read at 18 — proving that limitations do not define destiny.
-A near-death experience that became a catalyst for spiritual awakening, leading to a lifelong commitment to learning, teaching, and inspired action.
-The simple yet profound affirmation "I am a genius and I apply my wisdom," practiced daily for over five decades as a way of rewiring identity and belief.
-A redefinition of genius as listening to the inner voice and allowing that vision to be louder than outside opinions.
-How identifying and aligning with your highest values unlocks energy, clarity, and authentic purpose — while living by "shoulds" creates internal conflict.
-A striking financial exercise revealing why many people say they want freedom but spend in ways that contradict their stated goals.
-Why distractions are not enemies but feedback, signaling when you're not living in alignment with what truly matters.
-A reframing of trauma as perception — and how asking new questions can dissolve victimhood and reveal hidden benefits.
-A deeply personal reflection on grief, love, and the idea that nothing is ever truly lost — it simply changes form.
-The power of daily rituals, including a 53-year gratitude journal practice that documents growth, vision, and spiritual expansion.
Next, a closing meditation guided by Michael, inviting listeners to return to awareness itself, release distraction, and remember their oneness with the Infinite.
