Meet Chief Intuition Officer, author, speaker, trainer and Innovative Woman, Susan Rueppel, Ph. D.
How/why did you begin your business?
I was called to leave my corporate career in Information Technology so I could have more fulfilling work that made a bigger direct impact in the world. I started my intuition business over 20 years ago on nights and weekends. I focused on medical intuition, helping people uncover the underlying cause of illness. Then, in attending women’s business networking events, I saw that many women were struggling to make their business successful, so I applied the same intuitive skills to helping businesses be healthier.
What has been your biggest challenge and how did you overcome it?
Most people have not heard of a Business Intuitive. Helping women entrepreneurs understand the importance of intuition as a business resource, and communicating the value of bringing a Business Intuitive onto their success team was initially a challenge.
First, I help clients develop their own intuition in business so they see how valuable it is. Second, I let my clients know that because of the unique service I offer, that I work primarily by word of mouth referrals. I ask them to refer me to other women entrepreneurs who would like to accelerate the launch or growth of their business. And to make that easy, I created a” Refer Me” page of my web site: www.WINtuition.com/ReferMe
How do you define SUCCESS?
Supporting women entrepreneurs to follow their passion and purpose and make a living while making a difference, immensely enjoying what I do, AND having my own life balance – time for myself, my family and friends.
If there was one thing you wish you knew before you began your business, what would that be?
If I knew how truly impactful and rewarding it would be, I would have left the corporate world sooner.
What makes you an innovative woman?
Business Intuitives are leading edge, and intentionally engaging intuition is an especially innovative business practice. I’m also on a mission to have intuition development to be an accepted and active part of our education systems for K through 12, colleges, business schools and medical schools.
