Trust Your Inner Knowing

What happens when you stop listening to who everyone else thinks you should be and start trusting who you truly are? In this inspiring conversation, Ellen Stewart, the Pushy Broad from the Bronx, welcomes Shakti Bottazzi, spiritual teacher, author, and host of The Soul Wisdom Project, for an honest and powerful discussion about transformation, resilience, intuition, and discovering the wisdom within. Shakti has lived many lives in one lifetime, from an international business executive and entrepreneur to a spiritual teacher whose work helps others reconnect with their soul's purpose. After a sudden and debilitating illness left her in a wheelchair, she experienced a profound turning point that changed the direction of her life and led her toward a deeper understanding of healing, empowerment, and alignment. Together, Ellen and Shakti explore what it means to trust your inner knowing, recognize when your soul is speaking, and create the space to actually hear the answers you're seeking. Shakti shares why meditation isn't about having a blank mind, how journaling and silence can help reveal the guidance that's already there, and why intuition requires more than listening—it requires taking action. They also explore the pain of trying to become someone else's idea of who you should be, the courage to choose your own path, and the importance of getting back up when life knocks you down.
