Are you currently in a season of life where you are making some BIG decisions? Maybe you are switching jobs or wondering whether or not you should start a business. Either way, we all have things that we go through in life and listening to your intuition is crucial when it comes to decision making.

Today I have Lynn Robinson with me. Lynn, bestselling author and intuitive advisor, shares her journey of how she launched her business at a funeral and emphasizes the importance of trusting intuition in making life decisions. She defines intuition as a guidance system that helps us make good decisions and explains how to recognize when intuition is showing up. Lynn discusses the consequences of not trusting intuition and shares personal stories of when she didn't follow her intuition. She also explores the shift in societal acceptance of intuition in decision-making and the need for new leadership that embraces intuition. Lynn provides a three-step intuitive technique for creating a successful life and offers tips for dealing with worry and negative self-talk.

Takeaways

• Trusting intuition is essential in making good life decisions.
• Intuition often leads us out of our comfort zone, but that's where growth and success lie.
• Writing down goals, visualizing success, and taking action are key steps in using intuition to create a successful life.
• Negative self-talk and worry can be counterproductive and can be replaced with empowering affirmations and positive questions.
• Society is increasingly recognizing the importance of intuition in decision-making and leadership.

Lynn is an Author, Speaker and Intuitive Advisor who helps people make changes and achieve their goals—both personally and professionally—by following their intuition. You can find here HERE or connect with her on LinkedIn HERE

Are you mixing your personal and business finances together? We've all been there, but the reality is that things can get messy quick.

In this conversation, Stephanie Vokral discusses the importance of planning for exiting a business. She emphasizes the need for business owners to work with a certified financial planner and a certified exit planning analyst to ensure a holistic approach. Stephanie explains that it is crucial to start planning for an exit several years in advance, with a minimum of five years but potentially up to 10 years depending on the industry. Stephanie addresses the complexities of selling a business during a divorce and the need for prenuptial or postnuptial agreements to protect business assets.

Takeaways
