We have a deep and thought-provoking conversation with Alignment Marketing & Business Strategist, Karna Liv Nau, as she leads an exploration into the realms of trauma, healing, authenticity, and the transformative power of vulnerability in today's digital age. Karna's flipping the script on marketing, daring us to see it as a way to connect for real, embrace our power, chase down our dreams, and lay ourselves bare -- no sales pitch needed. Whether you're hustling as an entrepreneur, expressing your art, or just long to share who you are, Karna throws this question out there: What if marketing wasn't about a sale-driven agenda, but fully owning who you are?
The talk spills over into staying true to our values, navigating discomfort zones, and the art of balancing emotional well-being with professional drive and success. Together, we unravel questions like: How do we show up more fully in the world as ourselves and feel safe? How do we navigate the tension between the need for visibility in business and letting go of an agenda? How do we participate in a system while also seeking to transform it? How does healing from trauma and conditioning play a role in all of this? How do we practice more discernment and remain in integrity as both marketers and consumers?
We cover the gamut—from the emotional wounds that shape our lives, to the art of 'slowing down', tuning into emotional intelligence for better decision-making, and so much more. We question the entrenched norms of capitalism, and explore practical steps to dismantle oppressive ideologies that hold us back. If you've ever felt the tug between fitting in and standing out, or crave a more authentic and spiritual path through the digital landscape, this conversation offers a new paradigm. It's a call to liberate ourselves from the old marketing spiel, redefine success beyond immediate results, and do the deep work to not only transform our businesses but ourselves. In the intersection of entrepreneurship, authenticity, and spiritual growth, this episode is for every fierce, authentic soul stepping into the world with courage and integrity.
Trigger warning: please note this episode discusses sexual trauma.
