In Episode 185 of the Power & Purpose Podcast, I sit down with Ashleigh Hakes to explore embodied leadership, identity, intuition, spiritual initiation, and what it actually means to live in alignment with who you are. Ashleigh shares a powerful framework for the three layers of intelligence within embodied leadership: the mind, heart, and gut. We explore how these three centers work together, why leaders become disconnected from themselves, how self sacrifice contributes to burnout, and why true embodiment can require profound identity shifts. We also dive into the fear underneath authenticity: Can I really be fully myself without losing something?
