Trusting Your Intuition in Business and Motherhood with Intuitive Business Coach Samantha Fackler

What happens when a woman stops following everyone else's blueprint and finally builds something that feels like her—in business, in brand, and in life? In this episode, I sit down with Samantha Fackler, intuitive business coach and host of Confessions of a Spiritual Entrepreneur, for a deeply honest conversation about identity, transformation, and surrender. Samantha shares how 14 years in Fortune 500 marketing led her to a pivotal reckoning—one that sparked a complete rebrand, a podcast relaunch, and a season of ease she describes as leaping five years forward. She also opens up about one of the most profound identity shifts of all: stepping into motherhood. From her journey of conception to how pregnancy has amplified her intuition, Samantha invites us into the messy, magical, and deeply sacred process of becoming—and reminds us that clarity doesn't always come the way we expect.
