When the model doesn’t fit
You know when something doesn't feel right for your business but do you know how to get it to feel right?
It’s one thing to know when a business model, practice, or teaching doesn’t feel right.
It’s a completely different thing to know what to do instead.
Here’s a recent example:
Someone was highly recommended to me - a peer whose work I was told I’d really benefit from. I checked out her site, scanned a few things, and thought ‘okay, there’s something here.’ So I joined her email list.
That was 18 days ago.
Since then, I’ve received 48 emails.
Yes. Forty-eight.
Now, her model clearly works. She’s built it for scale, for automation, for a specific type of customer journey. And it serves that purpose well.
But it’s not for me.
And it’s definitely not for most intuitive and spiritual women I work with.
That kind of high-volume, low-touch model might look successful from the outside, but for those of us in high-touch, relationship-based businesses, it’s energetically off.
It’s disconnected from how we build trust. It doesn’t leave space for nuance, timing, or truth.
And yet this is the kind of thing many of us unconsciously measure ourselves against.
This is why so many intuitive women feel like they’re behind or missing something. Not because they’re doing it wrong - but because they’re trying to fit into a system that doesn’t reflect who they are or how they serve.
This is exactly what we’re talking about in my upcoming workshop:
Your Natural Advantage: Business Models That Amplify Your Unique Strengths
Wednesday, April 23 at 9:30 am PT
Link to join
It’s the final session in my April workshop series, and I’m pulling together everything we’ve covered - visibility, offers, intuition, income - and bringing it home to the structure that holds it all.
We’ll explore:
How to identify misalignments in your current business model
What it looks like to create a structure that works with your energy
How all the pieces fit together—your decision-making, visibility, and services
What it means to grow in a way that supports your flow, not fights it
A first look at Get Going, Get Growing, my group mentorship program that helps you implement everything we’ve covered
You don’t need a 48-email funnel to sell your work and create consistent income.
You need a rhythm and structure that honors how you’re here to lead and grow.
This is also your opportunity to experience what it feels like to relax inside a business model that respects your time, your gifts, and your unique approach to business.
If you’ve been circling the idea of working together, this is the best window to get a feel for the work.
Come join us!

Hi judith! Just wanted to ask when is this last workshop happening?
In the email it says 24th, but the registration marks the 23rd in the calendar.
Hey Heather! I totally understand. Mass market appeal isn't my favorite... I'm glad you are enjoying the extra workshops this month!
