#279 The Universal Laws of Change: Habits of Mind to Live into an Integrated Life despite an Uncertain Future with Futurist Cecily Sommers

In this season finale on Living a Life of Integration after major life changes, Louise sits down with Cecily Sommers, global trends analyst, futurist, and author of Think Like a Futurist. Their conversation explores the universal nature of change—how it unfolds in our personal lives, across society, and within the cosmos itself. Cecily shares the four habits of mind—optimism, curiosity, courage, and patience—that help us navigate uncertainty, as well as her perspective on reinvention, resilience, and what it means to lose an ordered life and find ourselves again. She also reflects on her journey as a breast cancer survivor, offering hard-won wisdom on how to nurture our souls and co-create with change. This thoughtful exchange closes out Season 5 with insight and inspiration, reminding us that change, though often disruptive, is also a guide toward living with greater purpose and that we all have an inherent capacity to live a trauma healing integrated life even after life altering change. 

Sending love
