Get Unstuck | Flow State | Find Your Purpose | Find Your Passion
In this welcome episode of The Flow Habit® podcast, you'll discover why Laurie Smith is on a mission to spread the word about the power of flow as Laurie shares her favorite three things about the flow state, and five top research-backed, science-based benefits of flow experiences.
Episode Summary
What if getting unstuck was as simple as remembering what made you lose track of time as a child? In this episode, we explore the science and soul of the flow state — that blissful zone where you're so absorbed in what you love that the world falls away. Flow isn't just a feeling; it can help you uncover your passion, your purpose, and your most unique gifts.
What We Cover in This Episode
- What is flow state? Flow is that feeling we get when we are doing something we absolutely love that we lose track of time. During a flow state, we often feel blissful, peaceful, and present.
- How flow connects you to your true self — and helps you relate to others in a more authentic, happier way.
- How to begin uncovering flow in your own life by remembering what made you feel most alive as a child.
- How your passions — even the ones that seem impractical—can lead to your unique gifts and purpose.
5 Reasons Flow Changes Everything
- Flow makes us feel positive. Flow generates feel-good emotions and lasting happiness.
- Flow boosts productivity. You can create more high-quality work in less time when you're in flow.
- Flow ignites creativity — and it's contagious. One person in flow raises the chances of others getting there too. Flow can also ripple through other areas of our lives.
- Flow builds quiet confidence. The more flow you experience, the better you feel about yourself.
- Flow calms your nervous system. Flow boosts emotional well-being; its benefits are backed by science.
Reflection Questions for You
- What did you love to do as a child?
- What makes you sparkle or come alive — even if it seems impractical?
- When was the last time you completely lost track of time doing something?
If this episode resonated with you, subscribe and stay tuned — in the episodes ahead we'll be diving deeper into the many benefits of flow, including how it makes us more productive, more creative, and happier.
Discover how flow can help you make your creative dreams come true, follow your creative callings, and share your unique creative gifts with the world.

24 min - Welcome to The Flow Habit Podcast with Hay House Author & Keynote Speaker Laurie Smith
Welcome to The Flow Habit Podcast!
Have you ever felt stuck or as if you're spending too much energy on things that don't lift you up?
If so, I know how you feel! Hi, I'm Laurie Smith and I'm on a mission to spread the word about the power of everyday flow experiences.
Five years ago, I felt as if I had that feeling--I felt like I had lost my spark, my connection with my True Self.
To get inspired again, I challenged myself to spend a few minutes everyday doing activities that brought me joy and (and here's the key!)--that had a high chance of getting me into flow. Flow is that feeling we get when we're so into what we're doing that we lose track of time.
I was so amazed by the changes I experienced that I started leading free 28-Day Flow Challenges for highly creative people around the world--like YOU!
If you're ready for a change, and want to feel energized, inspired and to share your unique creative gifts in a way that works for you, then I've created this podcast for YOU!
In each episode of The Flow Habit Podcast, I'll be combining my 25 years of experience as a coach, healer, workshop facilitator and author with what I've been learning about flow to support YOU in uncovering your unique formula for flow too.
If you're ready to reclaim your spark and manifest your creative dreams, let's do this together, friend.
Let's GO FLOW!
