Following Intuition and Building Success: My Conversation on Marc My Words
I recently had the opportunity to appear on Marc My Words, hosted by the wonderfully enthusiastic Marc Schmidt. What made this conversation so memorable wasn't just Marc's lively energy and genuine curiosity, but his complete openness to exploring something entirely new to him: astrology.
Marc came into our conversation with zero background in astrology, but his humility and eagerness to learn transformed what could have been a challenging interview into an absolute joy. There's something special about sharing a sacred practice with someone who approaches it with fresh eyes and genuine interest. His questions were thoughtful, his engagement was authentic, and his willingness to explore unfamiliar territory reminded me why I love this work.
We covered the practical story of how I built my business, but the conversation went much deeper than tactics. I shared how sticking to my intuition, even when it didn't make conventional sense, became the foundation of everything I've created. Success didn't come from following a prescribed formula. It came from showing up consistently, making genuine effort, staying open to unexpected opportunities, and presenting myself authentically in every interaction.
One of the most interesting parts of our discussion was introducing Marc to how astrology and hermetic philosophy are being used by business owners and CEOs in surprisingly practical ways. These aren't just esoteric concepts reserved for spiritual seekers. They're tools that help leaders make strategic decisions aligned with timing and natural cycles rather than forcing action based solely on traditional business models. When you understand your astrological chart, you can make choices that work with your inherent strengths rather than against them.
Marc and I also explored the role of creativity in entrepreneurship and personal growth. We talked about how presenting ourselves authentically, in sometimes surprising ways, actually helps us connect more deeply with the people we're meant to serve. Creativity isn't just about artistic expression. It's about finding innovative approaches to old problems and being willing to stand out rather than blend in.
This conversation was a beautiful reminder that the best discussions happen when both people bring genuine curiosity to the table. Marc's openness created space for depth, humor, and real insight. If you're interested in how intuition, timing, and unconventional wisdom can shape business success, I think you'll find value in what we explored together.
