“We have to practice on just a simple daily basis, waking up in the morning, and just starting to tune in. What is the message that my body is giving me today? How do I feel?”
In this episode of Startups and Stilettos, Carlyn and Ingrid sit down with Emily Aarons, business strategist, energy healer, and creator of The Energetic Advantage. Emily shares her unique approach to blending energy work with practical business strategy, helping entrepreneurs align their energy to scale sustainably and soulfully. With 25 years of experience in energy healing, Emily dives into why healing isn’t a "one-and-done" process, it’s a continuous journey of growth.
Emily shares why business growth and spiritual growth go hand-in-hand: you can’t build a thriving brand without doing the deeper soul work. From throat chakra blocks (hello, visibility fears), to heart chakra boundaries (why do we struggle so much with saying no?), Emily unpacks common energetic hurdles for women founders and shares rituals to stay aligned amid the chaos. Plus, don’t miss Emily tapping into Carlyn’s and Ingrid’s energy, revealing intuitive insights about their next paths.
