In this intimate conversation with Alex, we explore the delicate balance between learning from experts and staying true to your unique path. This episode is perfect for anyone who's felt overwhelmed by conflicting advice or lost their inner knowing while trying to follow someone else's "proven" formula.
We dive into how both of us have navigated the online business world, learning valuable skills from mentors while ultimately discovering that our most successful moments came when we trusted ourselves completely. Alex shares the story of her most effortless and profitable launch - which happened while she was pregnant, on vacation in France, simply writing one heartfelt email per day.
What You'll Discover:
🎯 How to discern between mentors who expand your trust in yourself vs. those who disconnect you from your inner knowing
✨ Why your nervous system is your best guide when choosing who to learn from
🎨 The difference between learning foundational skills and losing yourself in someone else's method
💫 How to create your own "magical soup" by combining insights in your unique way
🕯️ Why authentic soul expression lights up others in ways AI and cookie-cutter content never can
We explore the important truth that there's a place for expert guidance - like learning piano classics before improvising your own music. But we also acknowledge that some people are natural innovators who create beautiful music without ever taking a lesson. Both paths are valid.
The key insight: choose mentors who help you trust yourself MORE, not less. When someone's guidance feels constricting or disconnects you from your inner knowing, that's valuable information. When their energy expands your sense of what's possible while encouraging you to do it your way, that's alignment.
We also touch on how in our AI-saturated world, authentic human connection and embodied wisdom become even more precious. Other humans can show us what embodiment feels like in ways that no algorithm ever could.
This short but powerful episode will help you navigate the sea of expert advice with more discernment, so you can learn and grow while staying deeply connected to your unique path and inner wisdom.
Perfect for entrepreneurs, creators, and anyone seeking to balance learning from others with trusting their own guidance.
