The Exit Strategy: Leaving Corporate to Build a Soul-Led Business as a Medium with Nicole Pope

In this episode, I sit down with the incredible Nicole Pope — aka Medium Nicole — to dive deep into her story of leaving behind a high-level corporate job after realizing that the entire system was misaligned with her values. What came next was nothing short of life-changing: Nicole discovered her gift as an evidential medium and began building a soul-led business helping others connect with Spirit.


We talk about:

  • How Nicole first discovered and cultivated her intuitive gifts
  • The messy and magical transition from corporate life to becoming a Soulpreneur
  • Facing hurdles, haters, fear, and self-doubt along the way
  • The biggest lessons she’s learned on her entrepreneurial and spiritual journey
  • What Spirit has shared with her about the collective energy right now and where we’re headed in this “New Paradigm” (aka "The Great Awakening")


Nicole’s story is a powerful example of how courage, trust, and time can completely transform your life. In fact, my own reading with her deeply validated and clarified my niche — supporting women who feel the call to leave corporate jobs and create businesses rooted in their passions and purpose.


✨ If you’re in that place right now — ready to make your own transition out of corporate and into your calling — I’d love to invite you to take a look at my new offer called Your Exit Plan. This is a year-long mentorship where I walk alongside women like you as you release fear, build confidence, and create a soul-aligned business step by step, including beautiful new branding and a killer website that will bring in your soul-aligned clients on repeat. Because building something sustainable and authentic takes time, consistency, and support — and you don’t have to do it alone.


BONUS- When you sign up for my year-long program, you'll receive an intuitive business session with Nicole to connect with Spirit and get even more clarity. My gift to you!!

Spiritual Strategy Meets AI: How Star Path is Changing the Game for Conscious Entrepreneurs, with Rachel Loewenherz

If you’re in a season of personal rebuild, or you’re curious how ancient wisdom can survive (and thrive) in the age of AI, this conversation is for you!

From the corporate battlefield to the birth of a modern mystical tool—this week, we sit down with Rachel Loewenherz, the former Chief of Staff, two-time CEO, and product marketing leader who recently launched Star Path: a next-gen astrology experience built at the intersection of ancient wisdom and emotionally intelligent AI.

But this isn’t just a founder story.It’s a resurrection story.

Rachel opens up about the years she spent breaking—four pregnancy losses at the second trimester, a marriage rocked by chronic illness, and a business collapse that took her identity with it. All while she was climbing the corporate ladder at giants like Pfizer and ExxonMobil. Behind her resume is a woman who kept going when it made no sense to keep going.

Star Path wasn’t born out of a brainstorming session—it was born out of something being survived.

In this episode, we talk about:

  • Why astrology isn’t just “fun insight” for Rachel—it’s a living, breathing tool for survival, growth, and meaning
  • What it actually means to build spirituality into AI (including the ethical nightmares, wild opportunities, and emotional nuance most tech leaders miss)
  • How Star Path’s approach is changing the AI game—from personalized chart readings with heart to real-time spiritual tools you can actually use
  • Navigating the concerns that most people have about AI and how Star Path is addressing those.
  • Rebuilding identity after chronic loss—and the private reckoning of starting over

And much more!

If you’re a Soulpreneur (or soul-led leader of any kind), you’ll hear how Star Path can help you sync your strategy with your spirit—so you're not just running a business, you’re honoring your blueprint. We're talking launch timing, creative cycles, intuition checks…and using your chart as a business partner, not just a birth date fact.

Coaching with Soul: 6 Lessons Every New Coach Should Know

So you’re thinking about becoming a coach — or you’ve just started out — and you’re realizing… this is way deeper (and harder) than it looks.

In this honest and heartfelt episode, I’m sharing six core lessons I’ve learned over the past 5+ years as a soul-led coach. Whether you’re brand new to coaching or you’ve been doing it a while and feel stuck, I hope this episode offers some truth, encouragement, and a fresh perspective to help you grow — both in your practice and your business.

I also talk about what The Prosperous Coach taught me that changed everything: clients are created through powerful conversations, not content. If you’ve been hiding behind your website or waiting until you “feel ready,” this one’s for you.

You’ll hear about:

  • Why coaching is service, not self-promotion

  • How to separate your worth from your business results

  • Why every coach needs to invest in their own coach

  • The hidden trap of perfectionism (and how to move past it)

  • Why you must fall in love with the business side of coaching

  • How clients are created through connection, not content

✨ I’m also offering free 1-hour Soulpreneur Strategy Sessions for a limited time — no strings, no pressure. Just an invitation to experience coaching for yourself. Book your session here: https://jessparvin.hbportal.co/public/686be56fdd8b180025125451

Intuition, Spirit Teams & Soul Purpose with The Human Design Medium, Carly Arbuckle

In this soul-stirring episode, I'm joined by my friend and collaborator Carly Arbuckle—intuitive medium, angel messenger, energy healer, and Human Design guide—for a powerful conversation about trusting your inner guidance and stepping fully into your purpose.

Carly shares how her unexpected path from the corporate world to entrepreneurship began with a spiritual awakening, leading her to discover and develop her psychic gifts and, eventually, integrate Human Design into her healing work. Her approach helps women connect with their Spirit Team, decode their energetic blueprint, and take aligned action with confidence.

Some of what we dive into:
✨ How to recognize what’s energetically aligned for you
✨ Trusting your unique Human Design authority to guide decision-making
✨ What your Spirit Team can (and can’t) help you with
✨ How Projector energy has shaped Carly’s entrepreneurial journey
✨ Cultivating faith, intuition, and self-trust—one step at a time
✨ Why you’re never more than one step off your highest path
✨ How to move past fear and show up for what fascinates you


A few channeled nuggets of wisdom from Carly:

🔮 “No one is going to beat you to your own Destiny.”
💗 "Life is not a test, it’s a gift. EASE is available to you at every moment- if you choose it."

We also share details about our upcoming live workshop in Madison, WI on June 8: “Find Your Center: How to Activate Your Embodied Intuition & Spirit Guidance in Uncertain Times” —a Human Design & Mediumship experience for women ready to reclaim and amplify their intuitive power.

How to Practice Heart-Centered Selling & Marketing

If you've ever felt uncomfortable selling your services—tight in your chest when talking about prices, hesitant to share your offers, or afraid of being "too much"—this episode is for you. We're diving deep into what it really means to sell from the heart, and how soulful entrepreneurs can reframe sales as a sacred act of service and transformation.

Selling doesn’t have to feel pushy, icky, or performative. When rooted in love, alignment, and authenticity, it becomes expansive—an energetic invitation, not a transaction. I’m sharing the mindset shifts, energetic prep, and practical tools that have helped me and my clients sell with more confidence, clarity, and joy.

✨ Highlights include:

  • How to detach your worth from the outcome of a sale

  • The most common sales fears—and how to lovingly reframe them

  • Why visibility is a vulnerable AND revolutionary act

  • Energetic practices to ground and prepare before client calls

  • A heart-centered approach to pricing and receiving

  • How to stay consistent, magnetic, and aligned in your messaging

  • Why your work is medicine, and how to lead from that knowing

If you’re ready to sell with soul—and serve without sacrificing yourself—this conversation will support you every step of the way.

How to Cultivate an Entrepreneurial Mindset: 5 Key Shifts for Success

In this solo episode, I break down some of the most important mindset shifts + strategies for new entrepreneurs to cultivate the attitude needed to walk this path of soulpreneurship. I hope you find it inspiring and insightful!

Some of what we cover:

1. The Power of Experimentation: Treating Business Like a Science Lab

  • Entrepreneurship is a series of experiments, not a linear path to success. Every offer, marketing campaign, or pricing change is just data collection.


2. Redefining Failure as Feedback

  • Failure is just unmet expectations. It doesn’t mean you’re bad at business—it means you’re learning!


3. Overcoming Perfectionism, Fear of Failure, & Imposter Syndrome

  • Perfectionism leads to procrastination, fear of failure keeps you from taking bold action, and imposter syndrome convinces you that you’re not “ready” yet. These are just a few of the most common blocks that entrepreneurs have, and we're always working on them!


4. Getting Comfortable with Discomfort

  • If you’re never uncomfortable, you’re not growing. New client outreach, raising prices, going live on social media—all uncomfortable at first but necessary for business expansion!


5.  CEO Mindset vs. Freelancer Mindset

  • Freelancer Mindset: Trading time for money, saying yes to everything, waiting for opportunities.
  • CEO Mindset: Owning your expertise, setting boundaries, making strategic decisions, treating your business like an asset, INVESTING in yourself and your business and not treating your business like a hobby!


If you're starting or growing a purpose-driven business and want support, please reach out and schedule a free Clarity Call to see how Holistic Business Coaching + Human Design can help you create the mindset and strategy to reach your big goals!

What is the "New Paradigm" in Human Design and How Does it Impact You?

The "New Paradigm" in Human Design refers to a major evolutionary shift that Ra Uru Hu, the system's founder, predicted would occur around 2027. This shift marks a transformation in the energy dynamics of humanity and the way we live, interact, and evolve as a collective. It's based on the movement of celestial cycles, particularly the transition from the Cross of Planning to the Cross of the Sleeping Phoenix.

As we move into the new paradigm (aka “the Age of Aquarius” in Astrology), we enter an environment where the old way of being just won’t fly. Authenticity will be an absolute must. We will need to own, celebrate and share our unique gifts and get out of our heads and into our bodies.

That is why NOW is the time for you to fully embrace your Purpose and share your gifts with the world. The New Paradigm is a new way of thinking and doing things that will change the way people operate.

Some key takeaways:

  • In order to thrive in the New Paradigm, people need to make energetic shifts within themselves. 
  • In the New Paradigm, people are drawn to authenticity like never before. Customers, clients, and collaborators will resonate with businesses that reflect their unique essence rather than conforming to outdated formulas.
  • Knowing your unique Design and using it to create supportive practices, take aligned action, and make decisions from your intuition are the best ways to navigate this transition and thrive in the new era. 

I also talk about how money is changing, how to navigate entrepreneurship and why now is the BEST time to launch a soulpreneur endeavor!

I talk about my recent live workshop that shows people how to leverage their Human Design to set aligned goals, take strategic, action, uncover their blocks, and much more! Watch the replay:

Serial Entrepreneurship, Money Mindset, and Creating Retreats with Candy Phelps

Today on the podcast, I’m thrilled to welcome my long-time friend and recent collaborator, Candy Phelps!

Candy is the CEO of Bizzy Bizzy Creative Agency, a thriving business she’s successfully run for over 15 years. She’s also a serial entrepreneur with a knack for launching unique ventures, including our joint endeavor, the Soul Profits Retreats.

In this lively and insightful conversation, Candy shares her journey of self-education and creative problem-solving, which has been the cornerstone of her success as a business owner. We also dive into some of the hard lessons she’s learned along the way and her unique approach to launching new businesses today.

Here’s a sneak peek at what we cover:

  • Candy’s journey from freelancing during the Great Recession of 2009 to teaching herself the skills she needed using YouTube.
  • How she overcame a major money block about seven years into her entrepreneurial journey—and the shifts that followed.
  • The hilariously creative way she recently built a niche business (hint: it’s inspired by one of the best films of the ‘90s!) by leveraging her SEO skills and “working backward.”
  • Why empowering and uplifting women entrepreneurs is at the heart of her work.
  • The insights she gained from our co-hosted 1-day Money Mindset retreat and what she’s most excited about for our upcoming retreat in Mexico.


And, of course, we spill all the details about the Soul Profits Entrepreneur Retreat happening this March in Playa del Carmen, Mexico! We couldn’t be more excited to blend productivity, strategy, mindset, community, and travel into an unforgettable week.

Using your Human Design Undefined Energy Centers to Clarify your Niche and Messaging

In Human Design, the 9 energy centers represent the core energetic hubs within your bodygraph, each corresponding to a specific aspect of your life, such as emotions, communication, identity, and intuition.


As a Soulpreneur, understanding your energy centers in Human Design is essential for aligning your business with your true essence. Defined centers provide you with consistent strengths, allowing you to bring stability and reliability to your work. For example, a defined Throat Center helps you communicate your message with clarity and authority, while a defined Sacral Center fuels your ability to work with sustained energy. 


Undefined centers, on the other hand, give you the flexibility to adapt and gain deep wisdom from external influences, such as understanding the needs and desires of your clients or collaborators. They also show us where we need to do shadow work, or where we've learned hard-won lessons.

Understanding our own undefined energy centers gives us so much insight into our ideal client's struggles/ goals/ desires, because they are generally on a similar journey as us. 


So in this episode, we go through each energy center and talk about the the lessons they may be teaching you, and how you can apply that to your messaging/ content to call in the most aligned ideal clients ("niche"). 


If you don't have your HD chart in front of you as you listen to this episode, I recommend that you grab it (FREE!) on my website: ⁠https://jessparvin.com/freebies⁠

Finding Balance in Life + Business Using Ayurveda with Heather Burkart

Heather Burkart is an Ayurvedic practitioner and yoga teacher focused on helping women heal and find balance through the various seasons of life. In this interview, we talk about one of my favorite topics - Ayurveda- and how it can help you find balance with the seasons and natural rhythms of your body. Heather is especially focused on Menstrual Health and has created an array of online courses, group programs, as well as 1-on-1 services to support women on their wellness journey. 


Ayurveda is the sister-science of Yoga, and is a really comprehensive system that looks at each person individually, based on their unique constitution (Doshas). It offers us advice for lifestyle, diet, meditation, yoga practices, other habits and more. 


The first step to understanding and practicing Ayurveda, is to know your predominant Dosha(s), which each correlate to different natural elements. We also discuss how the doshas: Vata, Pitta, and Kapha can be applied to our Business Cycles, and offer us wisdom around finding balance in our work, throughout various seasons. 


Heather has great advice for:

-Incorporating Ayurveda into your Yoga practice, customizing it depending on your Dosha

-Eating and exercising for various seasons (ex: Summer = fiery Pitta season!) 

-Tapping into the Intuition of your body to guide you towards balance 

-The best time of year for launching offers and other business phases

-How to get un-stuck in your business using the Ayurvedic Doshas

-How Vedic Astrology is related to Ayurveda, and what the cycles of the moon + planets tell us about our own wellness

And much more! 

I also share a bit about my recent 3 week stay at an Ayurvedic facility in India and what has transformed for me since then.

What is the Foundation of your Business and How Does it Influence Everything you Create?

What is the real importance of good Branding? Well, in short, it's everything. It is the most important thing to focus on, as it sets the foundation for your business. 

Branding encompasses your audience, niche, offerings, and pricing, all of which contribute to your position in the market. In this episode, I discuss the importance of getting the branding foundation right from the beginning, before creating offers, building a website, or engaging in social media and other marketing. This gives you confidence and clarity in your messaging and visuals so you can move forward with ease.

I also recap last week's Online Masterclass: Branding by Design, where we looked at Human Design (your 'unique energetic blueprint') and how it can be a total game-changer in the Branding process. Knowing your design, and living in alignment with it can save you a ton of steps when you go to create a Holistic or Soul Brand as a purpose-driven solopreneur.

How is Perfectionism Showing up in Your Life and Business?

This is one of the most common blocks that I see again and again with clients, myself, and friends. We are sabotaging ourselves and preventing our businesses from growing, all in pursuit of the ever elusive "perfect" outcome. In this episode we dig into why we do this and what it looks like (usually). I share personal anecdotes and have 2 exciting new offers for those of you who are ready to move past this block!

Why are we Perfectionists?

  1. Societal or familial conditioning Were you pushed to get perfect grades in school? Or did you feel pressure to look perfect?
  2. We might be “trained” to be perfectionists via schooling or in certain work environments, especially a more "masculine" environment that sets us up with unrealistic expectations and doesn’t value creativity, “the messy process” or see failure as a necessary part of growth. 
  3. You might actually be wired for perfectionism. I have seen this theme show up in some peoples’ Human Design Readings, as well as in my own chart.


How does perfectionism show up in our work?

  1. Not taking ANY action because we think we need to be 100% “ready”, or have 100% clarity on the end vision.
  2. A time-suck: You could spend 1 hour on an A- version or 16 hours on an A+ version. . . what’s really going to move the needle forward in your business?
  3. Being a control freak : Thinking only I can do this “right” (perfectly) which keeps us from growing our biz, and trusting others to take on tasks that aren't in our wheelhouse.


Hey Madison! Join me LIVE on June 25 for a Soulpreneur Circle on Perfectionism at the new Bohemian Oasis Healing Center.

Healing through Entrepreneurship (and what that looks like)

What does the process of working with a Holistic Business coach to birth a new soul-aligned venture actually look like? Surprisingly, it has very little to do with things like marketing tactics, content creation, quarterly goals, etc. 

The real magic is in the personal healing- because personal growth and business growth are intertwined. 

In this episode I share some insights in my personal healing journey as well as how I typically work with clients as a Holistic Business Coach. My favorite tools for personal and business growth include:


1. Human Design 

A “holistic self-knowledge system” that combines astrology, Kabbalah, Myers-Briggs, I Ching, quantum physics, the chakra system and a load of other stuff in order to generate an “energetic blueprint" called a BodyGraph chart. I generally look at the chart with my client during one of our first sessions, and it gives both of us so much insight into how to move forward to grow/ birth their business.

When people have their chart read it’s often like being truly “Seen” and understood for the first time. 

Together we can unravel the conditioning and trauma (which causes self-doubt, anxiety, limiting beliefs, and SO much more) from who you truly ARE and get profound validation sometimes.


2. Branding

My first podcast episode ever was about “Branding as a Manifestation Tool”, so it feels like I’ve come full circle at the start of this new season. And it absolutely is a manifestation tool - a way to step into our highest self.

Besides the "fun" part of Branding (picking colors, fonts, etc.) there is a SHADOW side of the process- including what comes up as we work on things like naming our gifts, calling in our dream clients, sharing our magic with the world, etc. There’s healing that happens as we work through those blocks and create a physical manifestation of your highest self- in the form of a website, social media posts, branding photography, etc.

Are you Living in Alignment with your Purpose?

What's more important that living your Purpose? 

For the past 6 months, I've been studying to be a certified Soul Purpose Coach. This has got me thinking about all things related to our Purpose- how do we find it? How do we make it "real" in the world? How might it change/ evolve? And what holds us back?

In this episode we dive into all things Purpose-related: 

  • Potential barriers to living a life of purpose (ex: conditioning, lack of community, fear/ blocks)
  • How to tell if your current work is not in alignment with your purpose
  • How Human Design gives us insight into our Purpose/ Life Theme, and much more
  • Most people know their purpose but need someone to give them "permission" to live it. 
  • How my own journey has evolved, giving me clues to my Purpose and then expressing it in different ways

So whether you're still searching for your higher calling, or you are currently building a business that is purpose-driven and soul-aligned, you will find this episode thought provoking and helpful.

If I can support you in finding and expressing your purpose, contact me to learn more about my Holistic Business AND Purpose Coaching packages.

Using Human Design as a Tool for Business Strategy & Personal Development

What is Human Design and how can we use it to help us in our businesses and careers? 

Human Design is an amazing tool that combines ancient wisdom like astrology, the chakra system, I-Ching, and more with quantum physics. Each of us has a "unique energetic blueprint" that is represented by our HD chart which is created based on the day and time that you were born. 

I have been exploring this amazing tool for a few years on my own, and recently have been using it with coaching clients who are looking for guidance as they start or grow a soul-purpose buisness. Mainly, HD is an incredible opportunity for us to look at who we are, inately, without all of the conditioning that has likely taken us away from ourselves. It is my favorite tool for helping us tap into the wisdom of our body, and our own intuition- the most important step in personal or professional growth.

In this episode I talk about the basics of Human Design, how it has impacted me (with lots of examples from my chart), and how I've seen it help clients. I also describe most of the key aspects of a Human Design chart, and how they're useful, such as:

-Energy Types: There are 5 types and each one has a unique way of being in the world. This is very much tied to our work because it gives us insight into how we naturally interact with others, what our main strengths are, and what kind of rest/ replenishment we need.

-Strategy & Authority: These are probably the most important aspects to know because they give us guildelines for making decisions and reaching our highest potential.

-Energy Centers: Cooresponding to the Chakra System, whether your centers are open or "defined" can give you a lot of insight into how much you are affected by other peoples' auras

-Gates & Channels: The combination of these "gifts" starts to point us towards our greater purpose.

-Incarnation Cross (aka Life Theme): The big picture "red thread" that is connecting us to our highest selves and greater purpose in life. 

and more!

Between now and November 10 I will be offering a special on HD Business Growth sessions: We will look at your chart and I will describe to you the most important aspects of it. We will discuss an issue you're having in your job/ business and we'll look to the chart to see what clues it gives us to help you move through it. Only $150 for 90 minutes.

Embracing Failure as a Necessary Part of the Entrepreneurial Process + Lessons Learned

This is a vulnerable episode that I was NOT excited about recording! I launched a group coaching container and it failed. But I see the value in failure and embrace it as an integral part of the learning process. So I'm sharing with you my own experience in hopes that it resonates with you, no matter where you are on your journey.

Amy Edmondson author of “Right Kind of Wrong: The Science of Failing Well” says there are various types of failure, but the one we want to focus on she calls “Intelligent Failure” and this is defined as “a failure that comes from the undesirable result of an experiment” but the experiment itself was worthwhile because it taught you something, and can probably be improved upon to create different result next time.

How can we embrace "intelligent" failure, learn from our mistakes, share authentically because we know that others can also learn from our mistakes, and fail less often (and more gracefully) over time? 

In this episode I share my own recent experience and contemplate universal questions and struggles that I know EVERY entrepreneur faces, such as:

-Creating a sense of experimentation and PLAY in our business, and other creative endeavors

-Balancing the experimentation with structure, frameworks, accountability, etc. when it is necessary

-Looking at internal and external factors that may have contributed to a failure, acknowledging them and learning the necessary lesson (without beating ourselves up in the process!)

-Being aware when we feel FEAR - what is it trying to teach us? Are we in danger, or are we on the path to something new and exciting? How can we look under the fear and use it to propel us towards our highest self? 

-Having goals, a big vision, etc. but letting go of the outcome. And letting go of perfectionism! 

I hope you find this episode validating and valuable! Please share with anyone you think could benefit from it, and send me a message on Instagram (@holisticbizgrowth) about your relationship with failure! It's time that we normalized it.

Transitioning into Entrepreneurship as a Muti-Passionate Creative Person with Jessica Mele

Jessica Mele is a writer and philanthropic advisor who has just wrapped up 8 years working at the William & Flora Hewlett Foundation, and is now launching her new brand - Jessica Mele Creative -which showcases her creative, comedic writing AND her advising services. She’s also about to launch a new solo theater project called “Eat the Mama” (at the same time as moving her family and launching her new business!), which she tells us about. 

Jess is also is a recent client who started working with me about 6 months before her planned leave from her previous job (which had a term-limit). We worked on bringing all of these seemingly disparate parts of her (the writer, comedian, artist, advisor, philanthropist, etc) into her new brand in a way that feels cohesive but super unique. Now in this episode we were able to look back (as well as forward) and discuss her big Transition into entrepreneurship- the ups and the downs! 

Some of the highlights include:

  • How & when she started planning to leaver her wonderful job that had an 8 year term-limit
  • “Coming out” as a creative person and blending her creative work with her “professional” career to launch a business that represents all of her
  • How we worked together and identified the common themes of “storytelling” and “collaboration” in all of the work she does, and built a brand around that
  • The imposter syndrome/ fear that comes up around being an artist, and the importance of making art anyway because personal stories are interesting and inspiring
  • How to merge our “personal” and “professional” life as entrepreneurs- what do we share and not share? 
  • Clarifying our values and always coming back to that when making decisions, creating content, starting business relationships, etc.
  • What her version of “The Transition” into entrepreneurship has looked like

And then. . .  we get into Astrology!

Listen to the whole conversation for so many nuggets of wisdom - I think you will find it very inspiring, especially if you're a new entrepreneur, a creative person/ artist, or are going through a period of dramatic transition.
