Think of this episode as a voice note from your best friend, because I'm sharing my journey from being a "pros and cons list girl" to trusting my body's wisdom when making decisions.

Don't get me wrong, I still love myself a good list! But living my life through lists meant I ignored my intuitive pull to start a business for YEARS, which led to serious burnout.

In this episode, I'm breaking down my new decision-making trifecta: sensual (how it feels in your body), spiritual (intuitive knowing through human design), and strategic (the logical filter that comes LAST, not first).

Mentioned on this episode:

  • (02:00) How a casual conversation at a restaurant bar sparked the idea to become a virtual assistant - and why I initially ignored that bodily "nudge"
  • (06:00) The client who changed everything by asking for podcast help, leading to discovering my true calling in the podcasting world
  • (11:00) My human design as an emotional generator and how understanding my authority transformed my decision-making process
  • (15:00) The burnout and depression that resulted from forcing logical decisions instead of responding to energetic invitations
