Truth Talk for Conscious Entrepreneurs

In this episode of Cleared for Profit, Emma talks with Jerome Braggs, a gifted intuitive, spiritual teacher, speaker, and modern day medicine man. Jerome's definition of trauma focuses less on the specific painful event, and more on the soul's experience of disconnecting from the truth of ourselves, and then holding onto, manifesting from, that disconnect. We, as spiritual entrepreneurs, are called to reconnect to the truth of ourselves. For example, if our trauma means that we don't feel 'enough', then we are constantly trying to be better instead of showing up as our full selves. And burning ourselves out. They talk about the ways the principle, "as within, so without" can play out in people's businesses and lives and the deep importance of getting honest with yourself.
