In this episode, I sit down with Sonia Flores to talk intuition, burnout, and the courage it takes to choose alignment when life gets messy.In this episode of The Pivot Point, I’m joined by Sonia Flores, holistic business coach, intuitive advisor, and podcast producer. Sonia’s story is a powerful example of what it looks like to follow inner nudges even when the path forward isn’t clear. After 18 years in corporate, burnout, motherhood, and a series of life-altering pivots led her into entrepreneurship in a way she never planned—but deeply needed.We talk honestly about sabbaticals, learning how to receive support, and the fear that comes with stepping away from financial independence. Sonia shares how trusting herself, even without a perfect plan, helped her rebuild a career that aligned with her values, energy, and life as a mother.This conversation also demystifies intuition. We explore what nudges actually feel like, how resistance can be a signal to get curious rather than stop, and why taking one small aligned step is often more powerful than waiting for certainty.If you’re feeling stuck, burnt out, or torn between responsibility and desire, this episode is a reminder that you don’t need to have it all figured out. You just need to be willing to listen—and move.What You’ll Hear ✔️Sonia’s journey from 18 years in corporate to entrepreneurship✔️Burnout, sabbaticals, and redefining success as a working parent✔️What intuition and “nudges” really feel like in real life✔️Why resistance isn’t always a sign to stop✔️Rethinking “security” beyond just financial cushion✔️How investing in yourself can change everything“Sometimes the biggest leap isn’t leaving—it’s trusting yourself to land.”If this episode resonated, share it with someone who’s navigating a big decision or quiet pivot.Download the Heart-Aligned Career Transition Starter at  https://www.leadintact.com/freebies/heart-aligned-career, and if you’re ready to talk through your next move, book a free 20-minute call at https://leadintactwithlaura.as.me/free-consultation.Connect with Sonia Flores:  https://www.bluechakrastudio.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bluechakrastudio Proceed as if success is inevitable—because that’s how it becomes inevitable.
