Liminal Space: How to Stay Grounded Between Where You Are and Where You're Going

Have you ever felt suspended between the version of you that exists today and the breakthrough you know is coming? That's the liminal space and in this solo episode, I'm breaking down why this in-between phase is actually one of the most powerful places you can be as an entrepreneur. I explore the concept of liminality in business: those uncomfortable moments where the deal isn't signed yet, the numbers aren't moving yet, and the vision hasn't fully materialized. Using real-world examples like the early days of YouTube and the race to build the first airplane, I remind you that your biggest breakthroughs are often born in the most uncertain seasons. In this episode I cover: The 90-day rule that will stop you from abandoning your strategy too soon Why protecting your goals like a fragile infant can make or break your success How to separate belief in your vision from flexibility in your methodology The mindset shift that turns the journey into the destination Whether you're launching a new offer, growing a new audience, or simply waiting for your next level to arrive. This episode is your reminder to marry the process, trust the timing, and stay unbothered in your belief. "You're not just going from A to B. You're becoming B."

Stop Letting Your Mood Run Your Business: AI, Automation & the Fire Horse Shift

This episode was recorded on the road, apologies for the sound quality. I had just finished a radio show discussing AI with our host from a completely different generation just learning about the space, and it sparked something important: There is so much confusion around AI right now. So in this car conversation, I’m breaking it down simply and honestly: • Why AI feels intimidating (and why it shouldn’t) • What you should NEVER upload into AI tools • The hidden danger of “Shadow AI” in companies • Why you don’t need to chase every trending tool • The exact automations I’m using to grow my business • How to build systems that work even when your energy doesn’t If you’re an entrepreneur who wants to move fast in 2026 without burning out, this episode is your reset. Let’s work smarter, without losing our humanity.

False Start or Quantum Leap?

If the beginning of this year already feels messy, heavy, or off-track then this episode is for you. In this first episode of Business Energetics for 2026, Claudia breaks the illusion of the “false start” and reframes it for what it really is: the run-up before your biggest leap . We talk about: Why going “backwards” is often part of the momentum How 2025’s shedding phase prepared you for a new decade Why energy and mindset come before strategy How to stop letting negative noise (media, people, pressure) drain your vision The “bacon philosophy” —> why done is better than perfect Why you don’t need permission, mastery, or confidence to start How AI and automation are becoming the next unfair advantage And how to stop disqualifying yourself before you even try This episode is part mindset reset, part energetic recalibration, and part practical wake-up call. You’re not late. You’re not behind. You’re lining up for the jump. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 🔗 Resources Mentioned in This Episode Birth Chart Tools Use a free birth chart generator to explore planetary placements and personal cycles: AI Queens Community A learning space focused on simplifying AI, automations, and systems for real life and business ( join here ). 5-Day AI Challenge (Inside AI Queens) Topics covered include: Turning 1 piece of content into 50 Creating an AI avatar / AI twin Automating DMs (Instagram & Facebook) Building email lists automatically Creating full presentations with one prompt Market research with AI Automating content workflows 💬 Call to Action If this episode resonated with you: Follow Business Energetics for upcoming episodes Leave a review to support the podcast Join the AI Queens community to learn how to automate your life and business without overwhelm Your turn isn’t coming.
