Welcome to another unscripted episode! Today, I’m sharing some reflections from my recent seven-day meditation retreat. Over the past year and a half, I've felt an intuitive nudge that my growth requires operating at a different frequency than my current patterns. Despite past successes, I sensed the need to let go of my familiar path to reach new levels.  During the retreat, I confronted my resistance to the unknown, and as someone who loves planning, this was a major change. I learned to trust stillness, do less, and focus on personal growth to unlock success. Sitting in the unknown involves accepting discomfort, pushing beyond comfort zones, and listening to intuition even when it seems crazy. If you're feeling unstable or unsure, I want to remind you that you're not alone, and I'm on this journey with you. Join me in embracing the unknown, trusting the process, and discovering your most abundant season of growth.    In this episode we talk about: - (2:11) How to produce more results through rewiring your current operating patterns - (7:59) The sweet spot where all real breakthroughs happen  - (12:35) An exercise for connecting to your higher self to access a deeper knowing - (14:54) Embracing stillness for clarity   If you loved today’s episode, please share your favorite takeaways or your own systems and processes by screenshotting this episode and tagging us on Instagram!   Click HERE to text the word MENTOR to (602) 536-7829 for weekly business + mindset tips delivered straight to your phone!   Not part of the Girl Gang Community yet?
