14: The Year of The Horse: Get Your Blinders On & Feel Convicted in Your Business

In this episode, you’re invited behind the scenes with Gwen and Natalie about what actually happens when conviction meets doubt in business. From selling in unexpected places to navigating launches that don’t immediately meet expectations, this discussion dives into the emotional, strategic, and somatic layers of running a values-led business.You’ll hear a powerful breakdown of what real conviction looks like, how staying “blinders on” can protect you from fear-based decision making, and why constantly pivoting out of panic can quietly sabotage your long-term growth. Natalie shares how she’s simplified her business into three core offers, the discipline it takes to stay focused when results feel slow, and how somatic and subconscious work play a role in confident selling and leadership.This conversation also explores the nuance of integrity in sales — from behind-the-scenes offers to avoiding both extremes of rigid offers or people-pleasing customization — and why the energy behind the action matters more than the tactic itself. If you’ve ever launched something you believed in, questioned yourself when it didn’t land right away, or struggled to stay grounded while selling, this episode will feel like a masterclass and a mirror.Come for the strategy, stay for the honesty, and walk away with a reframed definition of conviction you’ll want to tape to your desk: working through the doubts — and acting anyway.Connect With Your Hosts:⁠Follow Gwen on Instagram⁠⁠Visit Grit and Tenacity Consulting Website⁠⁠Listen to The Reigning Queen Podcast⁠⁠Follow Natalie on Instagram⁠⁠Visit Natalie Barnett Website⁠⁠Listen to The Embodied Entrepreneur Podcast
