When was the last time you stopped to ask yourself: What do I actually desire?Not what you should want. Not what your parents, mentors, or Instagram tell you to want. But you. Deep down.In this episode of Rebel to Rise, I’m continuing my mini-series with one powerful question, one that most leaders don’t actually know how to answer. I share my own story of chasing other people’s version of success (money, houses, vacations) and what shifted when I realized my deepest desire was actually freedom.You’ll also discover:✨ The subtle signs you’re out of touch with your true desires.✨ Why chasing “shoulds” leaves even big achievements feeling empty.✨ A simple exercise to uncover what you really want and use it as your compass.✨ Why your desires don’t need to make sense to anyone else (not even your logical mind).This is so important because the longer you chase what you don't actually want, the further you drift from the life and business you actually want. When you start aligning with your real desires, your energy shifts, your leadership flows, and your magnetism skyrockets.If you’ve been running on autopilot, checking boxes, or striving for success that doesn’t excite you, this episode is your permission slip to pause, get honest, and finally name what you really want.🎧 Press play, and let’s uncover your true desires.Get your FREE human design chart: https://darngoodbusinesscoach.com/human-design-chartWork with me! ⁠https://darngoodbusinesscoach.com/everything⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/erin-hines/https://www.instagram.com/bedarngood/00:00 Exploring True Desires06:43 Uncovering Conditioning and Expectations10:10 Embracing Your DesiresHuman design, business coach, business strategy, business burnout
