Today, Michael welcomes Dr Espen Wold-Jensen. Dr Espen is a researcher in Neuroscience and Quantum Physics, a Conscious Business Mentor, and a Multi 7-Figure ‘SoulPreneur’ who teaches his clients how to use the power of their own consciousness to turn obstacles into opportunities. Dr Espen went from having two broken legs and nearly succumbing to a hospital infection to healing himself from the inside out. His signature event, the Quantum Experience, delivers the same art, science, and application of consciousness that has transformed the lives of clients in over 12 countries.

Conversation highlights:

-The Accident That Changed Everything: The emotional suppression that led to a 2006 motorcycle crash, broken femurs, spine/pelvis fractures, and a long recovery

-“Go Home and Breathe:” A moment of grace: receiving an inner directive to leave the hospital and start a specific breath practice, leading to the beginning Quantum Breathwork

-You Are the Healer: How innate intelligence heals; while medicine supports, inner sovereignty and practice restore wholeness

-Turning Pain Into Power: Reframing past hurts with purpose and gratitude; change the meaning, change your life

-Quantum Explained Simply: We are 99.999…% “empty space”; our attention collapses possibility into form—when we raise our frequency, we change our outcomes

-The Alchemy of Emotion: Transmuting fear?love, guilt?gratitude, shame?self-worth, grief?grace to heal relationships and reality

-Emotional Healing Protocols: “Issues in the tissues”—clear lower-frequency emotions to shift habits and health

-Out of Survival, Into Sovereignty: Media conditioning and fear states, and reclaiming executive function and heart coherence

-Childhood Imprints & Programs:  The first 7 years wire beliefs about money, love, safety; you don’t have “problems,” you have programs

-Inside the 3-Day Curriculum: Descent (past), Presence (truth), Ascent (future design) across eight centers; and more!

Finally, Michael leads a guided meditation on focusing our intention + attention.
