119 - How to Reclaim Your Power with Dr. Marie Mbouni

She Sells Radio

This episode is very unique. Recently I’ve mentioned that I’ve hired a new coach and that she is a shaman. Well, today’s episode is actually a part of one of our coaching sessions. It wasn’t intended to be an episode but as I gained so much knowledge and clarity, I knew I had to share. So, welcome to the show, Dr. Marie Mbouni.

Marie works as a shaman and coach for some very well known entrepreneurs and Silicon Valley leaders. She is trusted by people whose names you are likely very familiar with. Marie grew up in Africa and always felt called as a healer. Through her journey, she went to medical school and became an anesthesiologist and built a solid and enviable career. But she felt burnt out, overworked, and overall unhappy which led to her leaving all of it behind and pursuing her healing work full time as a shaman and consciousness coach.

This coaching session is all about reclaiming your power. I hope you have as many ah-ha moments as I did as we learn what personal power is, how to trust yourself and intuition, and how to reclaim your power rather than force it.
