Using Astrology for Business Timing with Sheri Moise

Have feedback? Text us! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2127353/fan_mail/new] Watch this episode on YouTube [https://youtu.be/0Oxw6jwc4AA] You've followed the strategy. You've done the launches. You've written the emails and shown up consistently. So why does it sometimes feel like you're pushing against an invisible wall?  What if the problem isn't what you're doing, but when you're doing it? Business astrologer and strategist Sheri Moise has spent 25 years in corporate sales and marketing, and she applies that same data-driven framework to astrological cycles. Her work sits at the exact intersection of this podcast: practical strategy with a serious dash of woo. In this episode, we cover: * Why most entrepreneurs are running on a calendar that was designed for factory workers, not creatives * What the Success Planet is and how it determines your actual natural planning and motivation cycles * The difference between your personal natal chart work and the collective market cycles that affect everyone * What the shift into Aquarius energy later this year means for how you position your brand and communicate with clients * Why astrology is data, not a horoscope, and how to use it to plan without overwhelm * The "guide by your side" era coming in 2026 and why it's especially good news for relational, human-first brands * Where to start if you're astro-curious but don't know where to begin About Sheri Moise: Sheri is a business astrologer, strategist, and the creator of the Success Planet Diagnostic. With 25+ years in corporate retail sales and marketing, she combines practical business strategy with astrological cycle planning to help entrepreneurs stop working against their own timing. She's also the author of Success Scopes and runs her business astrology community on Substack. Find Sheri on Substack! [https://sherimoise.substack.com/t/success-scopes] Want to work with Renee?

Bach Flower Remedies for Human Design Types with Tracy Poizner

Have feedback? Text us! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2127353/fan_mail/new] Pssst: Watch this episode on YouTube HERE [https://youtu.be/S0APq9c7_68] Show Notes: You've probably heard of Human Design (esp if you listen to my show). Maybe you've even heard of Bach Flower Remedies. But Tracy Poizner went and combined them into something that sounds niche and ends up being wildly practical, and the results from her beta test will make you want to know your energy type immediately if you don't already. What we get into: * What Bach flower remedies actually are, how they're made, and why "there's no stuff in it" is actually the whole point * How Edward Bach figured out a century ago what we now call the mind-body connection & gut microbiome * How Tracy mapped flower essences to the five human design energy types and why the not-self emotional patterns were the key * The conference download story that accidentally became her entire business model * What "reverse affirmations" are and why naming the pattern works better than affirming the ideal * The beta test data: 57 to 71% improvement in top patterns at four weeks, and what that actually looks like in people's lives * Why even experienced deconditioning practitioners are getting results they couldn't get anywhere else About Tracy Poizner: Tracy is a 28-year classical homeopath and manifesting generator who has spent the last several years mapping Bach flower essences to human design energy types. Her Space Time Alchemy Human Design Series includes blends for all five energy types, designed to accelerate deconditioning and make it easier to live in alignment with your strategy and authority.

Why You Aren't Letting Yourself Win

Have feedback? Text us! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2127353/fan_mail/new] Welcome to SEASON FOUR! 🎉  What if the thing keeping you stuck isn’t a lack of strategy… but the version of yourself you still don’t fully feel safe becoming? In this solo episode kicking off Season 4 of Tried & True with a Dash of Woo, Renee gets radically honest about self sabotage, nervous system safety, visibility, identity, and the unconscious patterns that quietly keep so many creatives and entrepreneurs playing small. She shares personal stories about launching her coaching business, making terrifying investments in herself, moving to California with almost nothing, and learning that confidence is not something you magically “find” before action. This episode is part mindset shift, part nervous system wake-up call, and part loving kick in the butt for anyone who says they want more… but keeps hesitating when it’s time to actually claim it. Inside this episode: *  Why self sabotage is usually protection, not laziness  *  The unconscious reason visibility feels unsafe  *  How your nervous system gets attached to familiarity  *  The difference between thinking about change and embodying it  *  Why waiting until you feel “ready” keeps you stuck  *  The identity shift required to create a different life  *  What Renee learned from launching her coaching business  *  The real work behind becoming the version of you you dream about  Want to win an audible book of your choice?  Click HERE [https://ratethispodcast.com/reneebowen] to leave a review - I'm picking 4 winners by the end of next week - announced on Instagram.  ENTER THE MILKY WAY GIVEAWAY: head to my latest post Instagram [https://instagram.com/reneebowen] post at 10am pst  JOIN THE HOLISTIC MARKETING SUMMIT FOR FREE HERE!  [https://reneebowen--cheekycopy.thrivecart.com/holistic-marketing-summit-hospitality/] Want to work with Renee?

Online Course Creation for Creative Entrepreneurs Done Right with Jasmine Jonte

Have feedback? Text us! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2127353/fan_mail/new] You've thought about creating a course. You've probably talked yourself in and out of it about fourteen times. This conversation with Jasmine Jonte is going to show you exactly why it keeps feeling harder than it should — and what to do about it. Jasmine is the founder and CEO of Cre8tion [https://www.cre8tion.co/ ], a company that has helped produce over 120 programs and 1,500+ lessons reaching more than 100,000 students. She started as a first-grade teacher in Detroit, which means she has been in the business of making complex things actually land for people a lot longer than most course creators have. In this episode we talk about: * Why your course idea might actually be a second business (and how to tell the difference) * The one question Jasmine's team asks before building anything * How Human Design profile lines affect how you teach without you realizing it * What "80% is 100%" means for emotional authorities who keep waiting for perfect * Why the market is more sophisticated now and what transformational actually requires * What to do before you build a single slide Links: https://www.cre8tion.co/ [https://www.cre8tion.co/]Email: hello@jasminejonte.com [hello@jasminejonte.com]]  Want to work with Renee?
