Unlocking Intuitive Power: A Guide for Women Entrepreneurs

Business Mindset 3 min read

Have you ever had a gut feeling (or what I like to call a deep knowing) about a business decision that turned out to be right? That my friend is your intuition speaking. Intuition is that inner voice guiding you when logic and data just aren’t cutting it. It's the internal compass that gently but firmly points you in the right direction. But it’s not always easy to hear right?

In business, especially for women entrepreneurs dealing with anxiety, depression and overwhelm, leaning into intuition can be an absolute game-changer. It helps you navigate the inevitably tough decisions that arise as a business owner and instills within you a strong sense of deep-seated confidence. With this, you begin to trust yourself and your own abilities even more.

How Tarot Enhances Intuitive Skills

Now, you might be wondering, how does Tarot come into play? As I often say, Tarot is much more than just a deck of cards; it's a powerful tool for tapping into your subconscious mind because each card holds symbolic meanings, and these meanings resonate with different aspects of your life and business. This is why practicing Tarot readings is so useful in helping you tap into your own innate intuitive skills. Tarot increases your ability to gain deeper insights and clarity and it often feels like having an in depth conversation with your inner self. This is where those hidden truths are unveiled in palatable, compassionate ways and the guidance you need towards your next best steps are revealed 🌈🔮

Daily Practices to Strengthen Intuition

What’s most important to know is that strengthening your intuition isn't a one-time event; it's a daily practice and often an ebb and a flow. The more you stretch and work those intuition muscles, the stronger they become .

Here are some simple yet powerful ways to grow and/or continue to nurture your intuitive abilities. You may already be doing or at least know of some of these. This list is then to cheer, affirm, and offer suggestions:

  1. Meditation: One that many of us are familiar with, dropping into the quiet space in your mind, even a few minutes each day is powerful. I’ve found that the goal is not to stop my thinking, it’s to observe it while remaining in a peaceful (regulated) state. Here you can connect with the quieter inner voice and hear the intuitive wisdom it’s sharing.
  2. Journaling: Even if just for 5 to 10 minutes,write down your thoughts, feelings, and any intuitive hunches (your phone’s note or voice capture app counts!). Over time, you'll begin noticing patterns and insights emerging.
  3. Mindfulness: This one is simple. As much as possible, stay present in the moment and bring your attention to your body’s sensations and the emotions that accompany them.. These are signals and clues to where your intuition is guiding you.
  4. Tarot Practice: Regularly engage with your Tarot deck! Even randomly pulling a card a day, asking questions, and reflecting on the cards' meanings will increase your confidence in trusting your intuitive nudges.
  5. Trust Exercises: This one is simple yet huge. Start with small decisions, trusting your intuitive hit (gut/deep knowing), and gradually move to more significant choices.

These practices will help you build and/or strengthen a strong foundation of trust and confidence in noticing and trusting your intuition. 🌺

Remember, intuition isn’t about perfection, it’s about progress. It’s about trusting yourself and the guidance that you receive a little bit more each day. Thankfully we have tools like the Tarot to help us along the way. Yes, there may be overthinking, fearing you might “get it wrong” and the general pressures of life. Acknowledging these fears and taking even baby steps forward in trusting your intuition is the way to not let them paralyze you into inaction. Instead, use them as stepping stones to grow and strengthen your intuitive muscles. 🌻

Remember, intuition is your inner compass, guiding you toward success and fulfillment. Embrace it, trust it, and watch your business flourish. You’ve got this!🌟
