I had an amazing call with Laura West from www.centerforjoyfulbusiness.com this week! We had a chat about trusting your gut in business. She said the kindest things about our chat so I wanted to share it with you. Here is a recent blog she posted.


How To Trust Your Gut In Business
By Laura West

I interviewed my good friend and colleague, Dr. Jennifer Howard as our featured Guest Expert for my women entrepreneur program, Business Goddess Attraction Marketing Program.  Dr. Jennifer provided a highly energized and yet deep dive into what “trusting our gut” is all about.

You may not be a part of this program, but I still wanted to provide you with a couple of “Soundbyte Strategies” from Dr. Jennifer that you can use today in your business.

She reinforced the idea of "tuning in" as being a practice. It was helpful to hear her describe the two levels of tuning in: Level 1. – As in what you do in a concentrated practice like meditation or a reflective journal and Level 2. – Which happens moment by moment.

Great validation that really struck a chord with the women: We often think of using our intuition and we’ll know immediately what the answer is.  When decisions are big, we often will have mixed feelings.  We can have a feeling of “knowing” it’s the right path and yet still feel sad that we may be leaving a part of ourselves behind.

There was so much more goodness and a really powerful meditation.
