Season 9 Episode 4: Understanding Your Intuition and Coming Into Alignment with Lucia Doynel

Season 9 Episode 4: Understanding Your Intuition and Coming Into Alignment with Lucia Doynel

Author: Lisa Kuzman February 9, 2023 Duration: 42:30

No matter what industry you're in, I'm sure you've seen the nearly endless amount of advice for taking the best selfies and making the highest performing reels (or Tiktoks, for that matter). But none of those tips are going to help if you feel awful whenever you're in front of the camera.

That's where my guest this week, Lucia Doynel, comes in! Lucia helps coaches feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera using Spiritual Psychology tools. When it comes to visibility and intuition, this is a woman who clearly walks her talk.

Our conversation went in a few directions I didn't expect, so tune in to hear about:

  • The intersection of leadership as it relates to intuition — and how her intuition shows up
  • Discerning what intuition feels like vs a trauma trigger
  • Prioritizing ethical behavior and consent when engaging in healing work
  • Viewing our jobs and hobbies as containers where we grow, heal, and learn
  • The importance of visibility (especially when you're resistant to it)

"People will try to do everything in their power to avoid [being seen]... Where is that coming from? Usually, if we dig into it, it's coming from a place of resistance, not from a place of allowing. And that, to me, is a tell. If you're resisting something, it's probably not your intuition. It's probably something that needs healing."

Lucia, I can't thank you enough for coming onto the show this week! I loved our conversation and I just know my listeners will, too.

There's a quiet shift happening in how we think about authority and influence, and New Wave Leadership Podcast is right at the heart of it. Host Lisa Kuzman believes traditional, top-down leadership models have run their course, proving ineffective for today's complex world. Instead, this movement champions a much broader, more inclusive vision. Each episode digs into the real, often unspoken challenges that come with stepping into a role of influence, whether you're in a corner office, a community group, or simply leading your own life. The conversations here actively work to expand our definition of who gets to be a leader, arguing passionately for the necessity of diverse identities, perspectives, and lived experiences at the helm. You'll hear frank discussions about authenticity, the personal hurdles leaders navigate behind closed doors, and practical ideas for cultivating your own unique leadership identity without conforming to outdated standards. Tuning into this podcast feels like joining a necessary dialogue-one that moves beyond theory to explore what it genuinely means to show up and make an impact on your own terms.
