The Gut Check: Navigate Uncertainty With Confidence


The Gut Check: Your weekly pulse on intuition, strategy, and decisive leadership.

Hi Reader,

Another week, another reminder (or ten) that we live in a VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous) world. How do we find ways to confidently take action amidst such uncertainty?

Now is the time to listen to your own trusted advisor - actionable intuition. Easier said than done, I know, especially with so much noise and constant change to contend with.

This week, I share a few insights that may help you hear your intuition more clearly. Tools that have helped me continue to build trust in my own intuition and find clarity.

🃏 Corporate Tarot Cards® for the week: Navigating Uncertainty

🎧 On the Podcast: Engineering Intuition: A Conversation with Jon Powell, Ph.D., CEO of Apex Catalytic

📖 On Substack: Revisiting Intuition & Decisions (a throwback!)

🌟 The Clarity Sprint kicks off May 1st


🃏 Your Corporate Tarot Cards® for The Week: Navigate Uncertainty with Influence

For the first official Tarot Tuesday, I pulled a card to help you navigate uncertainty.

Our card is Influence: a reminder that power doesn’t always mean control. You can watch the video on TikTok, Instagram and LinkedIn.

Feeling stuck in decision limbo? This week’s #TarotTuesday card is Influence — and it’s a reminder that power doesn’t always mean control. Influence is strategy. It’s shaping outcomes by how you show up, who you talk to, what you nudge. Think about your ecosystem. Who needs a whisper instead of a push?#CorporateTarot #IntuitionInBusiness #LeadershipTips #StrategyTok #DecisionMaking #InfluenceWithoutAuthority #VUCAready #IntuitionStrategy

🎧 On the Podcast: Engineering Intuition: A Conversation with Jon Powell

Episode 6 of The Intuition Strategist Podcast, is a conversation with Jon Powell, Ph.D, sustainability expert, environmental engineer, and CEO of Apex Catalytic. This one was really fun because I got to catch up with a fellow Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School eagle 🦅, Florida Gator Engineer 🐊, and long-time friend.

We build on the theme from last week - trusting your intuition - and talk about navigating careers, exploring decisions, and pizza experiments.

I really loved this conversation and I hope you enjoy it, too! Listen now wherever you get your podcasts:

📖 On Substack: Revisiting Intuition & Decisions

One year ago I published the Substack newsletter, "What do I do now?: Intuition and Decisions".

Re-reading it reminded me of where I was this time last year and brought up such joy and excitement for past Leah - the themes and ideas that were emerging are now the foundation of Intuition Strategy®.

People who can access all of the information available and make decisions with confidence will be positioned as thought leaders, influencers and linchpins of the future. These are the humans in the loop, the individuals with a tool that gives them an edge amidst artificial intelligence, AI. These people leverage the power of IA, the Intuition Algorithm. When we use our whole sphere of experience and all the data available to us, we might just make our best decisions yet.

The Gut Check: Your weekly pulse on intuition, strategy, and decisive leadership. Hi Reader, Two years ago this month, I hit “publish” on my very first Substack post. It was authentic. It was real. My path wasn't clear. But it was a move. Since then, I've published 55 articles, 15 podcast episodes, and launched a practice built on one truth: Small moves, made in alignment, compound into big results. This week’s Gut Check is a celebration of that power. Showing up before you feel “ready.”...

The Gut Check: Your weekly pulse on intuition, strategy, and decisive leadership. Hi Reader, I recently made a decision that felt both small and big at the same time. And this decision has shifted everything. I canceled a neighborhood block party I’d been organizing. Because my intuition said no. I know the feeling of misalignment: my energy, my priorities, my focus said not now. And the data confirmed my gut. That’s leadership. Not the loud kind. Not the title-driven kind. The kind that...

The Gut Check: Your weekly pulse on intuition, strategy, and decisive leadership. Hi Reader, Last week, I let the newsletter go quiet. Did you notice? Maybe, maybe not. May is always a busy month for me. So many reasons to celebrate: birthdays (mine and my daughter's ♉️), mother's day, my independence day. It's the kind of busy that’s deeply meaningful and invites reflection. So I stepped back. Not because I didn’t have anything to say, but because I wanted to hear myself think. It’s my...
