Episode 475: How Following Your Intuition Can Unlock Freedom and Unexpected Opportunities w/ Damali Alexander

Have you ever felt a pull toward something that didn’t quite make sense logically, but you couldn’t ignore it? That inner nudge to try something new, take a risk, or step outside the expected path?

In this episode, I sit down with Damali Alexander, someone I’ve known for years and always admired for the way she moves through life with intention, courage, and trust in herself. From starting as a teacher to building multiple businesses, investing in real estate, and even moving to Brazil, Damali shares how following her intuition has shaped her journey.

We talk about what it really looks like to pivot, take risks without having everything figured out, and build a life that prioritizes freedom over convention.

In this episode, we discuss:

• How Damali transitioned from teaching to entrepreneurship and investing
• Why trusting your intuition can open unexpected opportunities
• The difference between being broke and having a scarcity mindset
• How to think about risks, mistakes, and “tuition” in your journey
