We hear that word intuition and we think it’s woo woo, but the truth is: we all have intuition. We all have the ability to tap into our own deep inner knowing and choose to trust ourselves instead of looking for validation externally. Many people dismiss that quiet voice in their heads and dismiss it because it’s not “logical” even though we hear successful leaders and CEOs talk about gut feelings or trusting their instincts. In today’s episode Tanya brings in Emily Aarons to co-host the show and discuss how we can tap into our intuition with more confidence and ease.

How often do you use the word “should” when thinking about your day? I should be doing this or I should stop doing that. Who decided what you should or should not do? Often we don’t ask that question - we just assume that we should just live up to expectations without wondering who set those expectations in the first place. Today’s episode will help you question the rule makers (also known as the patriarchy) and live life by rules of your own making. Reclaiming your power starts by understanding who we are really fighting.

What does it mean to reclaim your power? Studies show that many women tend to shy away from the word “power” because we worry about how it affects everyone around us. We play small because that’s how we’ve been raised by the world, by society–to be a good girl and play by the rules. But when we shy away from our power, we don’t step into our full potential. We don’t allow our gifts to shine and make the impact we truly desire. Today’s episode sets the stage for our season on reclaiming our power and living a life on our terms.

Our measurement of success usually comes in the form of numbers. We track how well we are doing based on what those numbers tell us. But how do you decide which numbers to track?

Purpose has so much weight to it and, because of that, we can shy away from figuring out our purpose.
