Episode Details

Today on the podcast, I’m talking to Natalie Ross about what to do you do when you’ve built a successful business on Instagram … but it turns out that social media is wrecking your life.

Natalie is the cofounder of Earth Speak, a podcast and membership collective she co-created to bring intuition into everyday life. She grew Earth Speak to over six figures in annual revenue, 37,000 Instagram followers, and millions of podcast downloads… then decided to step back from social media and pivot the business.

Together we talk about stepping off the social media hamster wheel, how healing her trauma required changing her business, and why we need to rewire the survival instincts that make it feel so scary to connect authentically and vulnerably with others.

Tune in to hear more about—

• How Natalie’s healing journey was reflected in her business
• Shifting your perspective on marketing to support your strengths & desires
• How being in business can bring out threat responses that lead us to hide behind social media instead of actively selling our offerings
• The importance of learning to regulate your nervous system
