Trusting Your Instincts: Learning to Tune Out the Noise and Lead with Confidence


Listen Later

In this solo episode of The Thriving Mompreneur, Liz Kent dives into one of the most powerful tools in both business and motherhood: your intuition.

She shares candid stories about times she ignored her gut and the lessons learned, as well as moments when following her instincts led to clarity and alignment.

From hiring decisions and growing a business to advocating for her kids’ needs, this episode is all about learning to quiet external noise, reconnect with your values, and trust yourself to make the right calls, even when it feels uncomfortable or unconventional.


Key Takeaways

  • Your intuition is data. It’s not just a “feeling” — it’s informed by your experiences, values, and awareness.

  • Urgency can cloud judgment. Decisions made out of fear or scarcity often backfire; take the time to check in with what feels right.

  • Values alignment is everything. Regularly check that your time, energy, and choices reflect what matters most to you.

  • You are the expert. No one knows your business or your child better than you do, so trust that knowledge.

  • Changing your mind is growth, not failure. Real strength comes from recognizing when something isn’t working and having the courage to pivot.


Quotes From the Episode

  • “So many times when I haven’t trusted my gut, I’ve learned that I was right the first time.”

  • “It’s better to cut something off and move forward than to keep going in it and have things just get more stressful.”

  • “You are the expert in your kid, and you’re the expert in your business.”

  • “I’ve done more inner personal work as an entrepreneur than I ever did in therapy.”

  • “When you peel back all the outside messages, what’s left is your truth — and that’s what you should follow.”
