What if your business isn’t an object you manage… but a living entity in relationship with you?

In this episode, I share a perspective that changed everything for me: your business has its own highest self, its own intelligence, and its own evolutionary path. And it chose you as much as you chose it.

We explore how fear, resistance, and recurring patterns in your work are not obstacles but spiritual trailheads, pointing toward the parts of you ready to be healed and reclaimed. If you’ve been feeling friction in your business, this conversation invites you to listen differently. To your inner world, and to your business itself.

In this Episode We Explore:

00:00 – A recurring pattern you can’t seem to outgrow

03:19 – When business becomes more than strategy

06:44 – A different definition of spiritual practice

10:12 – The “trailhead” hidden inside resistance

12:38 – Why external success can quietly deplete you

15:10 – Relating to your business as something alive

What if I told you that you could attract more of your right-fit clients…without posting on Instagram every day?

If you're a highly sensitive woman running a business, you know this exhaustion intimately: The constant pressure to show up on social media. The dread of creating content that feels performative. The loneliness of figuring it out all by yourself. And now—AI everywhere, making you feel like you're falling even further behind.

Here's what I'm seeing: Some prominent voices are shaming women for using AI. Others are just copy-pasting, leaving no authentic voice. And studies show women are already falling behind men in adopting this technology. Meanwhile, you're stuck in the middle—exhausted, overwhelmed, and wondering if there's another way.

There is (and it doesn't require you to dance on TikTok or master complicated tech).

In this episode, you'll discover:

1. The real reason you need AI (it's not about being "tech-savvy"—it's about whether your ideal clients can actually find you when they're searching for help)
2. How AI can end your lonely workdays (and make the parts of business you dread—like writing sales copy—actually enjoyable)
3. The paradigm shift that changes everything: from visibility marketing (exhausting daily posts) to discoverability marketing (being found when people need you)
4. My exact process for partnering with AI (the back-and-forth that keeps your authentic voice while reducing your workload)
5. Why your beautiful Instagram posts disappear within hours—and what to create instead so your work can be discovered months or even years from now
6. The one diagnostic question
7. How to position yourself so AI recommends you to ideal clients—while you're sleeping, walking your dog, or taking your sabbatical

What if the real path to a thriving business isn't about doing more, but about doing less with more intention?

In this first episode of the year, I'm reflecting on what's shifted since moving to France and taking an unexpected two-month break from the podcast. What's become clear is this: I'm committed to a business that feeds my soul as much as it serves the world. A slower, more sacred way. And I want to invite you into this with me.

This isn't about checking out or playing small. It's about building a business that's deeply authentic, sustainably creative, and grounded in presence, not pressure.

In this episode, I share:

1. Why slow business is about doing what matters from a grounded place
2. Five tangible benefits of leading a slow business (and how to know which one you need most right now)
3. What sustainable creativity actually looks like when you stop forcing it
4. How I'm dismantling lifelong patterns of hyper-responsibility and over-functioning
5. Why feeling calm and steady in your body matters more than any strategy or system
6. The difference between a business that runs your life and one that serves it

If you're ready to create from overflow, lead with more presence, and build a business that feels like an extension of your spiritual practice, this episode offers a map toward a business that feels like home, not another obligation.
