In this episode of This is HCD, I speak with Mike Parker about Liminal Coaching — a practice grounded in cognitive science that uses intentional daydreaming to help people unlock clarity, creativity, and direction.

We explore the role of the default mode network in the brain and how it becomes active during daydreaming — something most of us were taught to avoid, but that might actually be key to problem-solving and breakthrough thinking.

There’s also a special live session led by Mike — a short guided liminal moment — designed to help you feel more grounded and clear in just a few minutes. If you’re working in a high-pressure environment or navigating complex challenges, this is one to try.
