Can You Pass This Entrepreneur Intuition Test?
Trusting your gut in business isn’t magic. It’s a skill you can develop, and once you do, decisions feel clearer, opportunities stand out, and success starts to flow.
I’ve learned firsthand how powerful intuition is for entrepreneurs. Have you ever felt pressured to chase an opportunity that looked great on paper but didn’t sit right with you? I’ve been there. When I was encouraged to start an agency, it seemed like a smart move. But something felt off. So instead of jumping in, I used my 48-hour snooze rule—a simple pause that helps me check in with my intuition. When I came back to the idea, I knew it wasn’t the right path.
Some opportunities may be lucrative, but are they truly aligned? I believe creativity and individuality matter more than rigid systems, and that applies to both medicine and business. Intuition isn’t just a hunch. It’s a skill you can strengthen, just like Oprah Winfrey did when she turned down a major role and built something even bigger.
I’ll share how you can train your intuition to work for you. I’ll walk you through simple practices like journaling and small intuitive risks that build confidence in your decision-making. If you’ve ever second-guessed yourself or felt stuck between logic and instinct, this episode will help you trust yourself more fully and build a business that truly fits you.
Quotes
- “You can sign up with a business that will promise to deliver a website and funnels and all of these things, but if they’re not working with you to find your own hidden gems, your own hidden superpowers, the ways where your brain is more in flow or contradictory, the ways that you’re self-sabotaging yourself, you’re not going to get very far.” (06:43 | Dr. Lara Salyer)
- “The system is only as good as your creativity. And it’s only as good as if it fits your authenticity and your mission.” (07:15 | Dr. Lara Salyer)
- “Only you know how you want your work-life masterpiece to feel. You know that feeling. And you can trust that when you start making decisions that are pulling you in the right direction, it gets easier to do that.” (11:13 | Dr. Lara Salyer)
- “Small intuitive risks. Not everybody’s going to see it. You’re going to learn that you can survive a momentarily embarrassed moment, or maybe the captions didn’t record, or you stumbled over a word or whatever.” (18:40 | Dr. Lara Salyer)
