Finding your genius and living authentically with Chanel Dokun

You may be very aware of the talents and skills you possess, but are you crystal clear on your genius? Many of us are not. This is because our unique genius comes so naturally that we may overlook it as the actual superpower it really is. Knowing your strengths is such an asset, but understanding your genius gives you a radical focus for your life.  Our amazingly talented guest today, Chanel Dokun, shares her valuable knowledge on what it means to find your flickers of genius so that you can live life authentically through that lens. Showing up with your unique genius can make a lasting ripple effect everywhere you go. Nurturing your genius helps broaden that ripple effect on the world. Chanel helps us practically think about how to carve out time and space for ourselves to do that. She helps us release the guilt about creating that time knowing that ultimately, if we don’t, we end up assuming the lives of others instead of thriving in our own authenticity.  Fill up your cup each day, friends. Make it indulgent. As Chanel shares, you are valuable, and you are worth it. And when you fill up your cup, you can go help fill up others’, and that’s one of the most valuable gifts you can share with the world.If you love the conversation, be sure to check out Chanel's new book Life Starts Now: How to Create the Life You’ve Been Waiting For. MORE ABOUT CHANELChanel is an Author,  Life Planner, and Relationship Expert trained in Marriage and Family Therapy.
