Parenting is challenging, and it can be difficult to know what voices to listen to because everyone has an opinion. In this week's episode I visit with Katie Rose, founder of Bhakti Rose based out of Australia about the art of parenting with Ayurveda. What does Ayurvedic parenting look like? How do you know if you are doing it 'right'? Katie and I discuss how to model Ayurvedic living to our children, how to give them space to make their own choices, the ancient roots of parenting in Ayurveda, and how to guide children towards practices and habits that will provide long term wellness and healing. As a mother of 5, Katie has seen it all and shares from her depth of wisdom and teachings as an Ayurvedic teacher, Yoga teacher and practitioner, and experienced mother. And the timing of this episode is perfect since Katie is offering a Black Friday special of 50% off all of her programs, including Ayurveda Goddess, Bhakti Club and the Yoga of Birth.

This week you are in for a special treat and a topic that we haven't covered before. Business, Life, Leadership and Intuition. Whether you have your own business, work for a business, or manage your life, the topic of intuition and listening to your inner knowing is universal and part of living Ayurvedically. Instead of looking outside of yourself for answers, can you learn to listen to your inner guidance? You already have all the answers, you just need to listen.  This week we talk with Samantha Bove, international business coach who specializes in working with entrepreneurs in the fields of wellness and personal development and founder of ZenBoss Academy. She is also a reiki practitioner and uses that background to guide her coaching. What you will learn in this episode. What Intuitive Leadership is. Intuitive Leadership is the process of reclaiming your power. It’s a blend of learning to trust yourself and using your discernment to make business decisions that work best for you, from the content you create to how you price your offers. You will learn to tune inward instead of crowdsourcing or seeking validation from others while learning how to stop second-guessing yourself for good. The Benefits of Intuitive Leadership. They include everything from beating burnout to being able to build a legacy brand. You’ll also notice an emotional shift on sales calls that allows you to be more confident, take brave action, listen better and show up as your most magnetic self. How to Tell the Difference between Intuition and Fear while strengthening your decisiveness muscle. How to Practice Intuitive Leadership. I’ll offer specific exercises that will help attendees connect to their intuition, master the art of self-reflection, develop self-trust, and separate their personal self-worth from the professional success of their business and clients. Ways to Use Intuitive Leadership to plan the best times to start a podcast, launch an online program, hold a retreat, publish your book and more.
