Dr. Laura On The Brain
07/22/2019

I just listened to the hour you did on "visualization" stories, and I wanted to chime in with mine!  Last summer, my husband and I took a trip west to attend a music festival.  While we were at the event, an older couple in front of us kept turning around and staring at us.  They weren't staring in an aggressive way, but it was a little unsettling to both of us.  Eventually, the gentleman said they were sorry for staring at me so much, but that I looked amazingly like a family member they lost recently.  From the way he spoke, and the fact that his wife was crying, I assumed it was their daughter who had passed away.  

Because they were so emotional when talking with us, I said something like "I hope the resemblance brings back fond memories for you both."  Right after that, my husband said "Wow - that could have been such an uncomfortable moment.  How did you think so quickly to say something that soothed and comforted them?"  My answer?  "It was Dr. Laura in my head!"  In that moment, I honestly "heard" a call of yours playing in my mind, and I tried as best I could to repeat what I heard you say to the caller.  Even after we walked away, I knew it was YOUR voice helping me, and hopefully helping a grieving family.  You never know which call a listener hears that will help them at that time or in the future.  Thank you from a second-generation listener, and as a fitness business owner, I want to be sure to tell you that your workouts on Instagram rock!!
