How to Rebuild Your Business with Intuition

In Part Three of the 'Reversal Arc' series, Kim dives deeply into insights about what lies beyond traditional business strategy. Drawing from decades of leadership, boardroom strategy, consulting, and her work as a Strategic Oracle, Kim unpacks why even the best strategies sometimes fall short — and what you can do about it.

This episode dives into how restoring your true rhythm, uprooting misalignments, and reclaiming your unique signal help you shape an authentic, potent business and life. If you find yourself “doing all the right things” and still feeling unsatisfied or stuck, this episode will help you see what’s missing and what to do next.

Key Episode Highlights

The Limits of Traditional Strategy

  • Even perfectly executed strategies, forecasts, and models can fail if they’re built on misalignment, distortion, or false signals.
  • Boardroom presence and negotiation success hinge on reading the unseen dynamics — not just following steps and strategy.

The Power of Restoration and Rhythm

  • True transformation happens when you restore your original rhythm, not by adding more tactics or effort.
  • Success is rooted in knowing and owning your unique signal, rather than chasing cultural norms or other people’s business models.

Moving Beyond Coaching and Consulting Labels

  • The transformation that occurs when you reclaim your core cannot be categorized as coaching or standard consulting — it is deeper: restoring systems, fortifying foundations, and activating your original architecture.
  • This allows you to break patterns of mistrust, self-doubt, and susceptibility to external pressures.

Action Steps for Listeners

  • Reflect on where your current strategy may rely on outdated or unaligned beliefs.
  • Journal on moments where your intuition pointed out a hidden truth in business or personal decisions.
