Have you ever had something random happen in your life that is so incredible, it gives you goosebumps, you cannot explain it, but you know this is not just a coincidence? This was meant to happen. Like that moment when you're thinking about somebody and then suddenly they call you or text you? Strange. Or have you ever found a $20 bill in a parking lot and you needed it because you forgot your wallet at home? Or how about this one? I love it when this happens. You sit down next to a stranger on a train or an airplane and you end up discovering some magical connection. Holy cow, they work at the company where you're about to interview for your dream job. I mean, talk about meant to be. Or you move into a brand new apartment and you look out the window and there's like a bazillion hummingbirds and you know this is the right apartment for you, because your grandmother died several years ago and she always said she was gonna come back as a hummingbird, and there she is as a sign. Goosebumps. Or how about a moment... I had a moment like this once where I was in a children's hospital with our son, Oakley. He was six days old and he was about to be wheeled into emergency surgery, and I looked up and there on the wall was a Winnie the Pooh mural. My husband's name is Christopher Robbins. I got goosebumps and I knew he'd be okay. Or maybe you've had a goosebump moment that was really profound and you come back to it over and over again, like the time you were too sick to go to that party, which meant you weren't in that car that crashed on the way home. What I'm talking about are moments that feel like they were meant to happen. You might not be able to explain 'em, but you just know it was meant to be. It gives you goosebumps. It's like a little wink from the universe or God or whatever you believe in, that there is in fact this positive force that has your back. Well, what if I told you, you could learn how to encounter more of these right time at the right place type of moments in your life? In fact, my guest today believes that every human being, yes you, has a superpower, and that superpower is that you can learn how to create more magic, more moments that give you goosebumps. In fact, there's a word for these moments that can't be explained, synchronicity. We're gonna talk about the topic of synchronicity today, what synchronicity is and how to create more synchronicity in your life. And you wanna stick around for this because there is more than meets the eye in this conversation. This is the intersection of psychology, quantum physics, and spirituality. In fact, this year's Nobel Prize for Physics was awarded to three physicists for their work in researching how particles that are light years apart still influence one another. And our expert today is going to convince you that you thinking about a friend is what influences your friend to call you out of the blue. You can learn to have your internal thoughts influence your external reality, and we're gonna be bringing simple takeaways and the science to prove it to you. I am so excited to introduce you to Dr. Tom Myers who is an expert on synchronicity. His entire PhD dissertation was on the subject of synchronicity. He's been a professor and researcher for years, and today he is going to teach you everything that you need to know. Dr. Myers is gonna break this topic down step by step so that you not only understand it, but more importantly, you can start to tap into the power and magic of synchronicity in your life because he believes and knows that everybody, including you, has this superpower, and today he's gonna teach you how to tap into it. Dr. Myers, thank you so much for being here.
