What does it actually mean to heal — and can we heal completely?

In this episode of The Art of Authenticity, Laura sits down with Sat Dharam Kaur to explore trauma, identity, and the deeper mechanics of healing. Drawing from her personal history, naturopathic medicine, Kundalini Yoga, and Compassionate Inquiry, she offers a clear and grounded perspective on why suffering persists — and how it can unwind.  

This conversation looks directly at identification, the mind’s role in pain, and what happens when awareness replaces narrative. Together, they examine purpose, healing without self-fixation, and why transformation doesn’t require perfection — only presence.

Sat Dharam Kaur – Compassion, Awakening and Soul Service

In this episode of The Art of Authenticity, Laura explores how authenticity has evolved for her over time. What began as a question of passion and success became a deeper inquiry: Who is the “I” that’s living this life?  Laura points to a felt sense, a deeper intelligence that lies beyond the thinking mind, that can’t be located in time or space, yet informs everything we do. 

Drawing on poetry, lived experience, and the Akashic Records, she reflects on authenticity as deep listening, surrendering control, and allowing life to move through us with clarity and flow.  Authenticity isn’t self-definition – it’s a relationship with an infinite, unknowable sense of self that’s always communicating, if we’re willing to listen.

What Does It Mean to Live an Authentic Life?

After a long pause, The Art of Authenticity returns. In this episode, Laura shares why she stepped away — and what called her back. What began as an exploration of authenticity through mind, heart, and lived experience expanded into something deeper: A multi-year journey into the Akashic Records challenged everything she thought she had “figured out” and revealed a systematic, teachable way of accessing a deeper knowing of self.  

This conversation traces that evolution. From success and self-inquiry, to skepticism and direct experience, to discovering a method that others could reliably access for themselves. This is not about belief. It’s about experience. Laura shares how this work moved from private curiosity to global teaching — and why the podcast is continuing as a space to explore the embodied, lived experience of the infinite nature of self.  A new chapter begins here.
