her Self: IFS & Spiritual Entrepreneurship

What if some of the things you’ve been avoiding in business are actually the things that could help you grow?
Over the years, I’ve worked with hundreds of spiritual women entrepreneurs, and I’ve watched the same few patterns surface again and again. They often look sensible, even wise, on the surface. But underneath, they can make bringing your soul’s work into the world much harder than it needs to be.
Together, we’ll explore:
The business number I wish more women understood, and why getting it “right” may not mean what you think.
A distinction around ambition that changed the way I think about sustainable success.
Why investing in support is only the beginning, and what determines how much you actually receive from it.
The pattern I see among highly trained women who readily invest in their expertise, but hesitate somewhere else.
What professional athletes understand about sustainable performance that entrepreneurs can learn from.
One simple practice I use to get far more value from the coaching rooms I invest in.

These three mistakes may seem unrelated at first. But by the end of the episode, I think you’ll see how closely they’re connected, and why shifting even one of them can change your relationship with your business.
If you want your business to become a greater source of freedom, stability, and support in your life, while giving your deepest work a structure through which it can thrive, this episode will give you a few things to consider.

What happens when you've done all the certifications, invested in countless trainings, and still feel like something is missing?
In this special conversation, I sit down with three women who recently completed her Self CEO—an IFS therapist, a university professor, and a movement educator—to explore what really changed for them over our three months together.
They share why they almost didn't join another business program, what surprised them most about the experience, and how doing the inner work transformed not only their businesses, but their relationship with themselves.
Together, we talk about:
Why more information and certifications weren't what they needed.
The unexpected identity shifts that happened before the business breakthroughs.
How working with your inner parts changes the way you market, sell, and lead.
The relationship between spirituality, entrepreneurship, and sustainable growth.
Using AI as a tool without losing your own inner wisdom.
Why building a business from the inside out creates more ease, clarity, and momentum.

This isn't a conversation about building a business faster.
It's about becoming the woman who can finally bring her soul's work into the world with integrity, confidence, and Self-leadership.
If you've ever wondered whether another business program could really be different, I think you'll find something of yourself in these stories.

This episode is part of my Business From Within Summer Series—a curated collection of foundational conversations exploring a more feminine way of building a business rooted in inner authority, spiritual practice, and sustainable success.
What if the most important business strategy you ever developed had nothing to do with marketing, sales, or scaling?
After more than two decades of entrepreneurship, I've realized that the way I run my business isn't shaped primarily by tactics. It's guided by a handful of spiritual principles that influence every decision I make—from how I plan my days to how I navigate uncertainty, serve my clients, and define success.
In this episode, I'm sharing the five principles that continue to anchor my business today. They aren't rules to follow or productivity hacks to master. They're ways of relating to your work that invite more presence, trust, and alignment into the everyday experience of building a business.
Because when your business becomes an extension of your spiritual practice, success stops feeling like something you have to chase, I becomes something you embody.

Most women don't start a business because they want another job. They start because they long for freedom, purpose, creativity, and the opportunity to make a meaningful difference.
But somewhere along the way, it's easy to lose the very relationship that inspired us to begin.
In this episode, I invite you to ask a simple but transformative question: Are you in love with your business?
Together, we'll explore what it means to build and lead from a place of devotion rather than obligation, why business can become one of your greatest spiritual teachers, and how a more feminine way of working can transform not only the success you create, but the experience of creating it.
Because the most fulfilling businesses aren't simply profitable. They're relationships that invite you to become more fully yourself.

What if success didn't require you to override your intuition, push through exhaustion, or leave parts of yourself behind?
For generations, women have been taught to build businesses according to values that prize productivity, speed, and constant growth above all else. But as more of us awaken to a different way of leading, we're being invited to redefine what sustainable success can look and feel like.
In this episode, I share five ways to bring the wisdom of the Divine Feminine into your business—from creating spaces of beauty and practicing deep listening to honoring your natural rhythms, embracing rest, and leading with greater compassion and inclusivity.
Because the future of business isn't about becoming more like the old paradigm. It's about remembering a way of working that allows you to flourish while creating meaningful impact.
