Laurie Cameron watched her father die in her arms when she was just a teenager. Out of this loss grew Laurie’s passion for psychology and for understanding the human condition. As the CEO of PurposeBlue she helps busy professionals and people around the globe incorporate mindfulness into their daily lives. Her 2018 critically-acclaimed book The Mindful Day is a practical guide to build a more meaningful life.

The author shares with Dr. McBride some of her easy-to-replicate methods for finding tranquility amidst chaos and calm within the hubbub of everyday life. Laurie discusses how she inserts moments of quiet “presentness” and gratitude into her own schedule. The mental health practitioners agree that agency is born out of radical acceptance and about the intrinsic connection between a calm mind and a healthy body.
