Are you unknowingly blocking your own happiness and miracles?

Join Julie Ryan and #1 New York Times bestselling author Marci Shimoff as they explore the happiness set point, epigenetics, ancestral trauma healing, and how to live in unconditional love. Marci shares powerful insights on why joy isn’t dependent on circumstances—and how you can rewire your baseline happiness, no matter your past.

Together, they explore the science and spirituality behind the “happiness set point,” including genetics, epigenetics, ancestral trauma, and the surprising role your habits play in shaping your emotional frequency. From deeply moving reflections on generational healing to practical tools for raising your vibration, this episode bridges research with real-life transformation.

You’ll discover how to create an “inner home for happiness,” live in the frequency of unconditional love, and recognize everyday life as the miracle it truly is. With stories of spirit encounters, divine connection, and simple practices that shift your mood instantly—yes, even disco music—this conversation will leave you inspired, empowered, and ready to experience more joy than you thought possible.
