200: Learning the Art of Self-Trust as a Leader in Your Consulting Business

✨ We made it. Episode 200. ✨

That’s 200 conversations, reflections, truth-bombs, mindset shifts, and gently delivered mic drops.

200 episodes of holding space for ambitious women B2B consultants who are done with burnout and ready for sustainable, soul-aligned success.

Honestly? Hitting 200 episodes feels like a big milestone. Not because of the number - though it’s a good one - but because of what it represents.

Years of walking alongside you. Of speaking into the void and trusting that the right women would find these words at just the right time.

And they have.

To celebrate, we’re re-releasing one of the most-loved episodes we’ve ever shared.

This one’s all about self-trust.

Because the deeper I go into this work, the more I see how central self-trust is to everything we want to create. Not just in our consulting businesses, but in how we live, lead, and be.

In this episode, I unpack themes like:

• Radical non-attachment (yes, even to our biggest goals)
• Letting go of external validation (no more gold stars, thank you very much)
• Learning to root our confidence internally, rather than chasing it in client feedback or bank balances

It’s an invitation to loosen your grip on outcomes and instead, lean into trust. Trust in your value. Trust in your process. Trust in the bigger picture.

Because when you stop white-knuckling and start listening to your intuition?

That’s when it gets really good.

This episode is for the women who are ready to stop playing small, stop waiting for permission, and start moving from a place of quiet power and unshakable belief in what they’re here to do.

Here’s to the next 200.

Let’s keep growing, gently and powerfully.

 

Quotes: 

“Even in a corporate facing consultancy business, by setting our value internally and by practicing radical attachment, I am convinced we set ourselves up to receive more than we can even imagine. Because think about it - It means we can try stuff in our businesses and fail and not be crushed.”

“We can learn more. We can reach out for the wisdom of others. We can get the support we need to make good decisions. We can hire people with expertise that complements our own. But most of all, we can trust ourselves to make the decision we need to make. Even if we don't get it right the first time.”

“When we make the source of our fulfillment and happiness something that's external to us, for example, I have to get this job, I have to get that contract, that award, that relationship, that connection in my network… when we make this something external to us, we become completely powerless. Whereas the flip side of this, allowing our source of fulfillment to be something internal to us, we become powerful.”
