In this episode, I dive into a pattern I see again and again with the incredible women I work with - the deep hesitation around investing in themselves and their businesses, and the belief that they need permission from others before taking bold steps forward. I explore why so many of us diminish our work as "just a hobby" and feel we need approval (especially from spouses) before making important business investments. 

Drawing from Internal Family Systems and my years of experience mentoring women entrepreneurs, I share how to move from permission-seeking to enrollment and offer practical guidance for claiming your authority as the leader of your business. If you're ready to stop seeking permission and start fully owning your vision, this episode is for you.

⭐ And, as a special gift, I want to offer you free access to one of my most popular programs, “The IFS Kickstarter Kit.” This will teach you the foundational concepts of the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model—a proven framework that has helped me and countless others navigate challenges, build inner clarity, and create thriving, soul-aligned businesses.

Through this 7-part video series, you’ll gain a deep understanding of how IFS works and how to apply it to your own life and business. These are the same principles I teach in my advanced programs, now made accessible in an introductory format.
