If you’ve ever looked at your business, your brand, even your personal relationships, and thought, “This used to feel right… but now I’m not so sure,” you are not alone, and you are not broken. Jen Hatmaker [https://jenhatmaker.com/] is no stranger to the hard and holy work of reinvention. She’s a bestselling author of 14 books (including four New York Times bestsellers), the host of the award-winning For the Love podcast, and a beloved leader to a community of over 1.6 million. But her newest book, AWAKE [https://jenhatmaker.com/awake/], isn’t about business strategy. It’s about what happens when your identity, your roles, and your life fall apart… and how to rebuild from a more honest, more aligned place. Jen [https://www.instagram.com/jenhatmaker/] walks us through what she calls a Midlife Renaissance, not a crisis. It’s a powerful season of reassessing everything you’ve been told about womanhood, worth, work, and success… and reimagining a life and business that truly feels like you. If you’re an entrepreneur navigating change, if you’re pivoting your purpose, or if you’re wondering what stays and what goes in this next chapter… click play.

Think your business is “too niche” to succeed online? In this coaching session, I’m chatting with Jennifer about how to sell a highly specific online course to a small-but-mighty audience… and how to attract the right people to grow a business that feels deeply aligned! Jennifer Gulizia [https://thefloweringfarmhouse.com/] is a flower farmer and garden educator who turned her passion for dahlias into a beautiful educational business. She’s also a Digital Course Academy student, and she’s looking to refine her offer, grow her community, and get clarity on how to market something that’s niche, time-sensitive, and doesn’t quite fit the traditional “signature course” mold. If you’ve ever worried your topic is too specific or too seasonal to succeed, this coaching session is for you. And listen, if Jennifer’s story has you thinking, “Wait… maybe I could do this too…” then I want to personally invite you to check out Digital Course Academy [http://jennakutcher.com/dca]: the very program that helped me launch my first course and change my entire business (and life!).

Have you ever considered that angel numbers, gut feelings, and “random” synchronicities weren’t just coincidences… but clues? In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Tara Swart [https://www.taraswart.com/] to talk about the brain science behind intuition, the senses we never talk about, and the forgotten wisdom that could reconnect you with your full potential. Dr. Tara Swart is a neuroscientist with a PhD, a former Oxford-trained medical doctor, a Senior Advisor at MIT Sloan, Chief Science Officer at Dirtea, and the best-selling author of The Source, which has been translated into 38 languages. She’s advised high-level leaders across the globe, and this isn’t her first time on The Goal Digger Podcast! Check out her interview from 2021 all about the neuroscience of manifestation! [https://jennakutcherblog.com/tara/] Whether you call it your gut, your inner knowing, or something greater, this conversation will give you a new lens on how to make decisions, overcome blocks, and open yourself to what’s possible. So if you’ve ever wondered whether those “signs” you’ve been noticing are just coincidences or if they’re trying to tell you something, you’re in the right place!
