I facilitate hypnotherapy, neuroscience-based change work, and yoga nidra over at WisdomVoyage.com. This is my passion! I have personally benefitted immensely from these modalities, so I love sharing them. These days I'm focusing especially on supporting sensitive peeps.
I started my business in 2016, but it's still a "micro" business (I only see one or two 1:1 clients at any given time). I still have my day job in research ethics, so I'm looking to grow my micro business with ease and authenticity... to gain the spaciousness and abundance to quit my day job.
I live with my hubby and two black cats in Seattle, WA, USA.

You're not "behind" 🙏🏼🧡
Most of us feel behind. Behind in numbers of followers... or income... or simply clarity about our business strategy and what we should be doing on a typical Tuesday afternoon when you're staring at your to-do list and nothing feels like the right priority. If that resonates, you're not alone. It's a common feeling among soulpreneurs! But let's reframe this—because feeling behind isn't helpful. It keeps us stuck in comparison and self-judgment, which drains the very energy we need to move forward. The reframe: You're right where you need to be. I know that might sound like a platitude, but I mean it practically. Wherever you are in your business journey, that's your starting point. And a clear starting point is exactly what you need to move forward with focus instead of overwhelm. The problem isn't that you're behind. The problem is that most business advice doesn't account for where you actually are. It throws strategies at you without helping you understand which ones fit your current situation. That's what we're going to fix. What's next: In the next lesson, I'll introduce the 5 Levels of Soulpreneur Business Development—a simple map that shows you the full landscape of building an authentic business. Once you can see the map and locate yourself on it, everything changes. You stop trying to do everything at once. You stop borrowing strategies meant for someone three levels ahead of you. And you finally know what to focus on—and what to let go of—right now. Let's take a look at that map... Feel free to comment below: Have you been feeling "behind"? What does that look like for you—comparison to a specific person? Pressure about a particular metric? Sometimes just naming it loosens its grip. 🙏🏼🧡

George, For me I still have my day job and feel like I’ve only “dabbled” in my passion business when my day-job-projects have allowed me enough time and energy. So I can get sad and frustrated that I’m behind and will never be able to consistently focus and grow this to something bigger. But I remind myself how much I’m still learning and growing through this process. Like you said in the webinar, entrepreneurship is certainly a way to further our own self growth. I see that even with my micro business!
@Jennifer Kogut I felt the same way for a long time. I'm no longer working in another job and still feel 'behind' for so many reasons. It's good to have aspirations and every step, no matter how small, is a step in the right direction.
@Leah Cooper Thank you for your perspective and encouragement!
Upgrade to the Newest Version ✨
You're currently in an older version of this course. It's got plenty of great info :) However, if you'd like to upgrade to the newest version of the course – at a discount – take these steps: Go to the new course's enrollment page -- click here -- you'll be prompted to log in, so that you can see the special discount. Any questions, comment below 🙏🏼
I'm getting confused here. I have the 2025 course and the suggestion / possibility is to upgrade to 2026. That part is clear. But when does the 2026 become available? Is it available NOW? Or do I pay and wait for 2026 to do it? It's not clear from the description if I'm signing up for something that will roll out in a few days or is available now. That would help me decide what to do.
@Steve Harper I checked your account and you're enrolled in BizPlan26 which can be accessed here -- http://smpl.ro/bizplan
@George Kao Great. Thanks! I appreciate it. I think part of the subtext here, is that some aspects of your site are confusing. Happy for the clarification.
@Steve Harper you're right! I need to hide this page from those who already have the new version 🙏🏼
@George Kao I’m having the same issue as Steve and can’t seem to find the 2026 version in the app. Thanks 🙏

Brilliant! This is kinda amazing... And scary. I have (barely) managed my course enrollment by having a tag/folder in my Gmail that is called "Unwatched classes." I'm scared to start to actually log them--but also excited to get this part of my brain organized.
I'm not sure if I love this or feel guilty for all the courses I have not completed. Can't wait to populate my "Steph's Addiction" tracker. Thank you @George Kao
@Stephanie Morrison of all possible addictions, this one is not so bad :)
@Stephanie Morrison I'm the same... Oof! Here's to completion of those courses that are still meaningful to us :)
@Stephanie Morrison Haha! See you in The Sage's Golden Path!

Most important? Everything is optional 😄 Skip lessons & modules that aren't interesting to you!
You're welcome to simply come to a Q&A call, and tell me your situation (briefly) and ask me my recommended next step :)
Thank you for "supporting" us to be flexible and joyfully skip around! (I acknowledge I grew up as a rule-follower also ...)
@Glenna Frey same here! And i am learning it can actually be joyful to break that old conditioning 😅

Why "watch" my courses? Simply chat with it -- get AI to be your personal tutor :)
You can save tons of time -- and make my course material personally applicable to you -- by chatting with the Ai bot that's connected to any of my courses :) The above video shows you how!
I’ll definitely play around with this, I like that it can reply and assess my personal situation in particular ⭐️
AND I don’t think it’s a waste of time to watch your videos. First, I can speed them up (I like that Simplero allows that easily) if the content is light, or slow it down if it’s a complex topic and I need space. Also I can just listen in the background as I do chores or walk!. 😅
@Jennifer Kogut thank you! I look forward to hearing how it goes when you try the feature.
How might I reframe when I'm feeling behind:
Self talk: I'm on my own path. My journey is unique to me.
Feeling behind means that I want more. More out of life. More from myself. It's a reminder to stay on the path to a deeper expression of who I am. That there is potential to grow and learn.
Also knowing that people who appear 'ahead of me' probably experience a sense that they are behind too.
@Leah Cooper so true! Everyone always had people "ahead of them" to compare to. And I love your reframing that feeling behind means you want more/potential.
@Leah Cooper I love your framing the “behind” feeling as a call to stay for deeper expression. I think it’s easy to stay surface level in our culture, but deeper requires our own timing.
@Jennifer Kogut "but deeper requires our own timing" resonates as so true, and in my case, one of the biggest challenges has been to allow, accept, and embrace the UNPREDICTABILITY of my own timing.
@Laura Greiner yes! allow, surrender, accept, trust. and hilarious gifs -- thank you 😄
@Laura Greiner I love that! Unpredictability + humor = life :D
