Welcome to the Heavenly Human podcast where we help you pause and pivot toward true fulfillment. Have you ever felt that stirring deep inside — that quiet voice telling you there's something more for your life? That feeling that despite all your success, something still feels missing? We’ve been there. We are you. Three years ago, co-host Laura King was at the peak of her career as an Executive Recruiter. On paper, she had it all. Awards, accolades, and a healthy bank account. But each night, she’d come home feeling slightly off, a bit disconnected, and wondering, "Is this it?" In 2023, it all came crashing down with a triple diagnosis - severe anxiety, ADHD, and sleep issues. Her body was screaming what her heart had been whispering for years. There was another path. There was another way of being. Co-host Mondo experienced a similar calling. Three years ago, he was living what many would consider the dream — a successful startup founder with a six-figure lifestyle. Then, his heart called him to something radical: surrendering 99% of his material possessions to pursue a completely different path. What Laura and Mondo both discovered through deep conversations, healing, tears, breakthroughs, and countless moments of growth was that we were being called to our unique sliver of Heaven on Earth — what we now call, Heavenly Human. We've now joined forces to create this podcast, sharing what we've learned with other believers who feel that same nudge toward something more meaningful. We're here to guide you toward fulfillment through the embodiment of heaven on earth. Peace, Love, Joy, Freedom, Abundance. It’s all waiting for you. "Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven."
In this powerful, no-holds-barred episode, I'm getting real about the epidemic of what I call "high-functioning misalignment" – that state where you're achieving by all external measures but feeling disconnected, exhausted, and wondering why success doesn't feel like you thought it would. Drawing from my own journey from absolute misery to genuine alignment, I share what's possible w...

When was the last time someone's "well-meaning" doubt made you second-guess yourself? That moment when you share your exciting plans and they respond with cautious concern instead of celebration? These subtle discouragements can derail our boldest dreams if we let them in.
I challenge you to become the intentional gatekeeper of what enters your mental and emotional space. Before absorbing criti...

Ever wonder why certain people drive you absolutely crazy? That irritating colleague who dominates every meeting with their achievements? The friend whose humblebrags make you want to scream? They might be your greatest teachers in disguise.

What happens when everything you've achieved feels empty inside?
"Shine Brighter" emerged from this breaking point. What began as personal therapy journaling slowly transformed into something greater as Laura recognized a quiet epidemic of high-functioning burnout among successful people. Through nearly two decades in executive recruiting and over 30,000 interviews, she'd seen this pattern...
Every morning at 6:30 AM, I stand barefoot in my front yard, arms stretched toward the sun in what I jokingly call my "suburban sunrise symphony." My neighbors have definitely noticed, and I've officially become "that woman" on our block – but I wouldn't have it any other way. This five-minute ritual has become my daily reset button, transforming how I show up for myself and others.

For seventeen years, I'd been trapped in what I now call the "performance prison" – building my entire identity around being Laura King, the high achiever who got results no matter what. When my external validation disappeared, I was forced to face the question: who am I underneath it all?
Through therapy, neurofeedback, journaling, and deep spiritual connection, I discovered that true transfor...
Ever caught yourself staring at the ceiling at 3 AM, wondering, "Is this it?" despite ticking all the boxes society handed you? You're not alone. Laura discusses what it truly means to build a life that lights you up from within – not the polished highlight reel or hustle-harder narrative we've all grown tired of.

Feeling that quiet nudge that something needs to change? You're not alone. That whisper is getting louder for many of us.
Transformation doesn't require grand gestures or complete life overhauls. Your freedom isn't some distant mountain to climb but exists in the "micro moves" you make every single day. These seemingly small choices—like deciding whether to meet an old friend despite ...
Stepping into the power of the present moment transforms everything. We've been conditioned to believe our worth comes from what we accomplish, constantly chasing future goals while missing the richness available right now. But what if true fulfillment isn't about doing more but about being more fully present?
Laura shares her recent personal evolution, describing it as "having a decade worth o...
We've been systematically trained to ignore our body's wisdom from our earliest days. We celebrate pushing through discomfort, glorify exhaustion, and wear disconnection like a badge of honor. Most high-achievers exist in a perpetual state of burnout they've rebranded as success. But your body isn't the obstacle – it's your most faithful guide leading you home.

"You are not your resume. You are not your LinkedIn headline." These words strike at the heart of the modern identity crisis many high achievers face—the dangerous fusion of who we are with what we do.
What if your value has nothing to do with your output? What if you could be loved and powerful simply for being you? This radical shift doesn't mean abandoning excellence; it means grounding it ...

The spiritual battle between darkness and light affects us all, but how do we navigate it without being overwhelmed? Laura vulnerably shares her experience as a "deep feeler," describing how she absorbs others' pain while maintaining her own protective shield. This leads to a profound discussion about consciousness as awareness – recognizing ourselves as eternal beings living temporarily in physical bod...
