In this first Friday Night Live of 2026, L. Michael Burt opens the Alignment Reset Series, a live extension of The ThriveWell Journey.

This conversation is for anyone navigating life after disruption, whether that disruption came through divorce, health challenges, loss, career shifts, or the quiet realization that who you’ve been no longer fits who you’re becoming.

In this episode, L. Michael speaks directly to the moment many people never name: when life starts running on autopilot. When survival patterns, old stories, and learned responses quietly take over and begin to feel like identity.

This session focuses on awareness as the foundation of purpose and explores:

• Why adaptation is often mistaken for identity
• How patterns formed during disruption can end up running your life
• The difference between what you experience and who you are
• What an Alignment Reset really means after misalignment
• How awareness restores authorship and direction

As part of this conversation, listeners are invited to access the first chapter of The Empowered Path, a companion workbook designed to support clarity, reflection, and intentional forward movement after disruption.
