You Are Your Best System: Finding Freedom in Intuition and Strategy with Mary Williams
This week on Finding Fearless, we dive into how intuition transforms business leadership with Mary Williams, founder of Sensible Woo.
On the latest episode of Finding Fearless, I had the absolute pleasure of a conversation that dives deep into human-centric leadership and the undeniable power of intuition in business. Mary Williams is a force of nature - a dynamic business strategist who seamlessly integrates intuition, data, and systems to empower small business owners and entrepreneurs. If you're seeking strategies that are deeply personal and truly effective, this episode is an absolute must-listen.
Mary's journey is fascinating and inspiring.
She transitioned from being a corporate librarian and digital archivist in the world of major motion pictures to becoming a trusted advisor to spiritual entrepreneurs. Her unique background gave her invaluable insights into organizing information and systems—skills she now applies to help entrepreneurs navigate their business challenges with both structure and intuition.
At the heart of our conversation lies the understanding that traditional business landscapes are built on external methodologies when the real transformative work lies within. Mary emphasizes the paramount importance of tuning into yourself and doing the inner work to fundamentally transform how we approach business. Using tools like intuitive readings alongside practical systems creates magic that generic business advice simply cannot provide.
What really shines through in Mary's approach is her rejection of one-size-fits-all business solutions.
In our conversation, we unpacked how easy it is to get caught up in the allure of following prescriptive paths to success - paths that promise swift results through external tools and techniques. However, Mary illuminates a more sustainable and fulfilling path centered on one's own intuition and forging a deep connection with one's inner self.
The journey isn't about applying someone else's formula; it's about coming home to yourself and creating business practices that honor who you truly are. Mary's clients discover that their most powerful business insights come from within, not from following the latest trend or guru advice.
Over the past decade and a half, both Mary and I have witnessed major shifts in the online business landscape.
We've seen the rise and fall of trends. The overwhelming advice on outsourcing and scaling, and the eventual return to a more introspective, personal approach. This change is pivotal, not only for individual entrepreneurs but for the collective community that thrives on authenticity and true connection.
Mary's perspective on these shifts offers invaluable wisdom for navigating today's business world. Her insights help entrepreneurs distinguish between fleeting trends and enduring principles, allowing them to build businesses that stand the test of time.
Mary's "Woo Crew" subscription is truly unique and powerful.
This innovative offering blends tarot and Akashic records readings with business advisory in a way I've never seen before. But it's not just about predicting outcomes; it's about something far more profound. Mary helps individuals find their voice and articulate their intuition in their business dealings, empowering them to own their power and make decisions aligned with their true selves.
The Woo Crew creates a space where entrepreneurs can explore the intersection of spiritual practice and practical business strategy—a combination that leads to remarkably aligned business growth and personal fulfillment.
A critical takeaway from our conversation is that business shouldn't be about scaling for the sake of scaling.
As entrepreneurs, we must define what success looks like for us, personally and professionally. Mary champions the beauty of going slower and deeper in our work, choosing quality over quantity - a concept often lost in hustle culture - and nurturing smaller, more connected communities.
Mary's approach reminds us that when we align our business practices with our values and intuition, we create not just successful businesses but meaningful lives. The metrics of success become personal and impactful rather than external and hollow.
As we move beyond this conversation, I invite you to explore where your own compass points.
What is your intuition telling you about your path, your purpose, and how you want to lead? The world desperately needs leaders who are willing to turn inwards, embrace their true selves, and lead with authenticity and courage. Mary's work exemplifies this heart-centered approach to business leadership.
If our conversation resonated with you, I encourage you to explore Mary's offerings and consider joining her Woo Crew. It might just be the guiding light you need to foster a deeper connection with yourself and your work.
