What if your greatest leadership tool isn’t in your spreadsheet, but in your spirit? In this profound and provocative episode, Michelle Loret de Mola and Dev Patnaik are joined by Dr. Lisa Miller—Columbia professor and author of The Awakened Brain—to explore the science of spirituality and its surprising impact on decision-making and leadership. Lisa reveals that every human is biologically wired for spiritual awareness, and when leaders tap into this awakened mindset, they unlock a deeper form of knowing—one that data alone can’t provide. Together, the trio dives into twin studies, MRI scans, and real-world examples to show how intuition, mystical experiences, and even dreams can guide game-changing decisions. In an era of radical uncertainty, this conversation offers a timely reminder: the most future-ready leaders are those willing to listen not just to the numbers—but to the soul.
