In this soul-stirring episode, host Ashley Connell welcomes back the brilliant Jennifer Urezzio, founder of Soul Language, to dive deep into the often-overlooked energetic and emotional patterns that silently shape your business success.

Together, they unpack how doubt—especially the kind that feels deceptively “safe”—can sabotage your momentum, and how stepping into soul-led leadership can be your greatest catalyst for growth. If you've ever second-guessed your pricing, struggled to set boundaries, or felt drained by the wrong clients, this conversation will speak directly to your soul and your strategy.

✨ In this episode, you’ll learn:

1. How to spot the difference between resistance and not resonating—and why that distinction can unlock your next level of growth.

2. What "safe doubt" is and how it's sneakily keeping you small (and overworked).

3. How to energetically attract dream clients by embodying your wholeness and rewriting your internal programming.

This episode is a must-listen for Online Business Managers ready to operate from a place of deep alignment, clear boundaries, and true empowerment. 💥
