    The Great Unlearning: Initiating the Leadership Frequency for 2026

    In this potent solo transmission, Laurie Hawkins speaks the truth leaders have been feeling but haven’t yet named. As we stand at the threshold between the collapsing frequency of 2025 and the emerging energetic landscape of 2026, this episode becomes a portal — a remembering, a recalibration, a necessary unlearning. Laurie reveals the five leadership patterns that must dissolve as we close out this past year: performative empowerment, achievement as identity, dysregulated decision-making, the addiction to constant reinvention, and the sacrifice of humanity for success. With clarity, compassion, and grounded boldness, she names what is no longer sustainable — and what the new era is calling us into. 2026 isn’t inviting us to work harder. It’s inviting us to lead from coherence, embodiment, intuition, and frequency. Inside this episode, you’ll experience: ✨The Great Unlearning — what ends with 2025 and why✨The rise of energetically intelligent leadership✨The shift from fractured growth to whole-self capacity✨How true expansion becomes embodied, not performed✨Why the next era demands ecosystem leadership, notisolated strategies✨A channeled energetic transmission to anchor you into the field of 2026 This is not just a podcast episode. It is an initiation. A threshold. A frequency event. If you know you are meant to lead the next frontier — not from pressure or performance, but from presence, power, and deep internal alignment — this episode is your activation. Welcome to The Great Unlearning. Welcome to 2026.
