Welcome back to mood with Lorna Lisbeth. I'm Lorna Lisbeth and for today's current mood combo, I cannot even believe I'm literally saying this.

But we are joined with Gabby Bernstein, a New York Times bestselling author, motivational speaker, spiritual leader, and podcast host.

She has written nine books, including my all-time favorite, The Universe Has Your Back, and her newest book that just came out is called Happy Days. It is the guided path from trauma to profound freedom and inner peace.

And we are going to talk all about it because it is definitely different from her other books.

And I don't want to get too much into it because like I said, we will talk with Gabby about it, but what I do want to say before we even jump into anything else is like, I cannot believe we have Gabby on the podcast.

She came into my life as just an author, as just someone I follow on Instagram, someone I look up to at the exact time in my life when I needed it.

And her book The Universe Has Your Back helped me so beyond much. It just felt like it literally fell into my lap at the exact right time.

She teaches primarily from a course in Miracles, which is also something that I kind of, I don't, I've never read it in full, but it's another book that I really relate to is also based off those principles.

And one of my closest friends that mentors me through kind of my faith in spiritual life also relies heavily on a course in Miracles as well.

So she is just someone that I look up to so much in a sense of kind of just a personality on the internet in a sense of helping people, but then also just as a human being the way she lives her life and all of her advice.

And she is truly an incredible gift to the world, and I just cannot believe we get to sit down and have a current mood combo with her.

And at the end, you guys, it was the craziest experience of my life. She actually walks me through like a guided therapy session.

It was absolutely insane like I cannot believe it. I was in shock afterwards. I was speechless and I like tried so hard not to cry, but it was extremely powerful and moving. And I hope that you guys can kind of get that sense when you are listening as well.

And I will post that content over on Instagram at mood with Lornalizbeth in video form because I want you guys to really kind of like see almost like the look on my face because I wasn't like I was scared, but you could definitely tell that like things were happening inside of my body.

And I was having like a serious spiritual experience and I just feel so honored that she did that with me and lucky it was absolutely insane. So now that we're obviously feeling it, our moods are boosted just from being so grateful and expressing our gratitude for someone that I know you guys all love her as well.

Let's just jump right into best mood of the week. My best mood of the week obviously came from that conversation. I was extremely nervous to do this interview because I do look up to her so much and I, you know, I feel like a lot of you guys can relate of when you just work something up so much in your head that you don't want to be nervous and do a bad job.

And so I told myself kind of the friend that I just mentioned who's a mentor and just kind of like soulmate literally friend level soulmate in my life.

I told myself because she's also so just like spiritually aligned and so wise I said just pretend you're talking to her.

And so I end up having this amazing, amazing interview with Gabby and I text my friend and I say I literally told myself to pretend that I was talking to you and it actually helped calm me down. I had Gabby Bernstein on my podcast.

And of course my friend was like, oh my god, why didn't you fucking tell me that this was happening. That's literally insane. I'm calling you in 20 minutes. I end up having literally three hour conversation on the phone with one of my best friends in California who has helped me beyond like any level of friendship ever like gone above and beyond to literally take me under her wing and guide me through like really hard seasons of my life.

And so we end up having this amazing conversation just about obviously what Gabby and I talked about and just kind of catching up and everything.

And then really talking about how I kind of want to tell my story and how I've been feeling lately and she just reminded me how I'm truly being led and things don't happen to me.
