Join my upcoming Positive Intelligence®️ Program

In a world that often feels disconnected, it's easy to forget that you are your most important investment.

In this episode, I share a personal story from 2012 when I had an intuitive sense about my husband's passing. That experience led me to prepare emotionally, physically, and financially, even though I faced a lot of resistance along the way. Those preparations made a huge difference when the time came—I was able to support my family, keep my business steady, and navigate through the grief.

Later on, when I started feeling a bit stuck in my work, I discovered the Positive Intelligence®️ (PQ) framework. Blending this approach with intuition reignited my passion and helped me—and my clients—handle life's challenges with more ease and grace. I'll share practical tips on recognizing and managing those internal saboteurs we all have, and offer exercises you can start using right away to quiet that negative inner voice.

Remember, as intelligent and successful women, we often put ourselves last. But it's time to change that. You deserve to invest in yourself. I'd love for you to join my upcoming six-week program where we'll combine Positive Intelligence and intuition to support your personal and professional growth.

Let's reconnect with ourselves and embrace this journey together. I can't wait to share this episode with you!

In this episode of Intuition: Your Success Compass, I welcome new and returning listeners and focus on the critical need for connection in a disconnected world.

Back in 2012, I had an intuitive premonition about my husband's passing, and this is how I prepared emotionally, physically, and financially for it. This experience involved everything from personal training to studying neural pathways, which led me to integrate coaching even more deeply into my intuitive practice.

I talk about my initial resistance and how those preparations ultimately helped me navigate the loss, support my family, and keep my business stable. Later, when my work started to feel stagnant, the Positive Intelligence® (PQ) framework reignited my passion. This approach, which blends cognitive understanding with intuition, has been a blessing in helping my clients and myself handle life's challenges with more understanding, strategy, and joy!

I share practical tips on recognizing and managing those internal saboteurs we all have and offer exercises that you can put to use right away. This episode isn't just about mental fitness; it's about remembering that you're your most important investment.

And hey, I also invite you to join my six-week program that combines Positive Intelligence® and intuition to help you grow personally and professionally.
