How can you step into your higher self? This week's special guest is none other than Lindsey Schwartz! Lindsey is a best-selling author, master community builder, and the founder of Powerhouse Women. Fiercely committed to supporting other women, Lindsey invests her time in mentoring women and girls of all ages—from high achieving entrepreneurs to high school students. She's also a real estate and angel investor for female-founded companies including beverage brand Lite Pink.

After seeing numerous women in her life stop short of pursuing their own entrepreneurial dreams because of fear and self-doubt, she saw the need for more honest conversations about the ups & downs of entrepreneurship in order to show women that they don't have to have it all together to get started. From there, the Powerhouse Women community, annual event, and podcast were born, with the motto that we're not meant to do business (or life) alone!

In this episode, our chat with Lindsey will cover her journey of starting Powerhouse Women and how she gave herself the permission to go after more.

A message from Lisa:

If you you're in a pivot stage or wanting to let go of something you've worked so hard on, or spent most of your years learning/doing this message is for you: Written by Lisa Boettcher: " So yes, there's a deep personal grief of letting her go: all the time, though, heart, sweat, tears, finances, people and more that I've poured in. And on the other side of grief, when I relinquish the control, is a new evolution, a calling and a newfound sense of peace. As women, we often find ourselves in these boxes, per say. A box of what we "should do". A box of "what would other people think if I did things differently?" A box of "continuing on this path, even though I feel called to something or somewhere else, feels simplest right now." A box of "gosh, I'm afraid to look like a failure." A box of "living up to expectations" whether from parents, friends, partners, or ourselves. We aren't boxes though. We are living, breathing humans with god-given passion and purpose. And we have power in choice. In our own choices. We get to choose. It's not always easy. It's often messy, complicated, emotional. But it's also beautiful and rewarding and life-giving, especially when we tap into our intuition and our deep inner knowing of what to let go of, what box to tear down and where to step into freedom. On the other side of good lies great. And greatness, sweet friends, awaits us all."

If you were to look at the timeline of Taylor Swift albums, watching her pivot and evolve from one genre to another, I'm sure you could find some parallels in your own life. Different seasons, different albums, different moments of letting go, while taking the lessons and "music" from those past seasons into what's next! In this episode, I'm so excited to welcome my very first guest, Lisa Boettcher! Lisa shares her journey from building one business, to two, and finally having the clarity to know she needed to let one of them go! Tune in to hear all the details for how she is currently navigating this, and what she is doing to connect with herself, her needs, and dive into this whole new "album" of her life! Whether you're in the midst of a big pivot or not, this episode is for YOU! All the ambitious women making an impact, and trusting in their intuition to know how to best do that in your current season!

02:15 Meet my dear friend Lisa Boettcher who is pivoting from her product based business!

06:00 How have you focused on two different businesses at the same time/

09:15 What was the voice inside you that said you needed to focus down on one business?

13:00 Your big "WHY" and purpose can stay constant while the "HOW" you fulfill it gets to evolve and change.

15:30 What inner work do you do to help you step into the unknown?

We all have that little voice in our head whose number one job is to keep us safe. That little voice (that can be pretty loud sometimes) is fear. Luckily we also have another voice or guide that helps us step into things that are meant for us! THAT is your intuition.

In this episode, I'm sharing ways you can connect with your intuition and trust your gut, because I know if you're listening to this podcast you're not someone who wants to play small. I'll be sharing 3 main ways I've strengthened my ability to recognize my intuition that you can start doing right now! I'd love to hear which of the three stands out most to you that you will try!
