Episode 18: From Burnout to Breakthrough: Crystal Haitsma

In this episode of the Word Witch Podcast, I speak with certified life coach Crystal Haitsma, who also holds a BA in psychology and homeschools her four children while running a business with her husband. We dive into Crystal's journey from being a stay-at-home mom to becoming a life coach focused on uncovering the roots of shame and tapping into intuition. I share my own personal transformation story inspired by my mentor James Wedmore, Business by Design (BBD). We discuss the role of shame in personal and business development, the importance of trust and intuition, and the various ways energy impacts success. Crystal offers a mini-coaching session, emphasizing the need for business owners to align their actions with their true desires and intuition rather than societal norms or external advice.
