Ali Craig talks about “Why Your Best Personal Brand Is All About Your Intuition” in this episode of the Intuitive Leadership Mastery Podcast, with host Michaela Light.
“Well, I think we live in such a so fast pace, or at least we feel like we're supposed to be fast-paced. You know the people I work with are entrepreneurs. Everyone just feels like they're behind. And I think when you have that mindset, and that perspective, you don't allow yourself to have the time to really check in with your instinct, with your gut. And then, it sometimes takes practice to be able to articulate that feeling that doesn't sound logical, if the facts don't add up straight, but you just know.” – Ali Craig

Interview Transcript
Michael: Welcome back to the show. I'm here with Ali Craig, and we're going to be talking about why your best personal brand is all about your intuition. And during today's show, we're going to look at how her gut tried to save her from a disaster guest on her T.V. show, but she ignored her intuition. And also, another instant where she ignored her intuition, and got the business partner from hell, and how she wouldn’t do that again.
So also, we’ll look at why using your intuition smartly can save you thousands in branding, and how she nearly died at age 21, and how that changed her connection with God, and Spirit. We'll also look at the amazing science behind gut instinct. And also, you may not know this about her; she has written three bestselling books and she's been on hundreds of T.V. shows and her secret is to how she doesn't get nervous doing any of those things. So, welcome Ali.
Ali: Thank you so much for having me.
Michael: You’re so welcome, and she helps people use their heart, soul, and brains to sell themselves through their brand. And also, she has a T.V. show. What's the name of your T.V. show?
Ali: That's my brand with Ali Craig.
Michael: Fabulous! We’ll put in the shows. So, let's come back to that first point about you had a guest on your T.V. show, they look perfect on paper, your producer was like, “Yes Ali, we need this guest.” And they answer all the questions right, but your gut was telling you something else.
