What if the key to abundance was not about doing more but about becoming more fully yourself?
That’s the question at the heart of this beautiful Brain Soul Success™ podcast episode featuring Alana Cahoon, mindfulness coach, energy healer, and author of the brand new book, Creating Abundance: Access Your Inner Wisdom to Manifest Radiant Health, Wealth, and Happiness, which just launched on June 10th. Perfect timing for this conversation!
With over 20 years of experience guiding leaders, entrepreneurs, and professionals through transformation, Alana brings a rare blend of spiritual depth and practical wisdom. Her message is refreshingly simple: true abundance begins on the inside.
What Does Conscious Leadership Actually Mean?
For Alana, conscious leadership is about emotional intelligence. Not the buzzword version, but the real thing — being fully present with the people in front of you, leading from your core values, and creating a culture where everyone gets to do what they love, enabling them to grow into their potential.
The CEO is the culture, Alana shared, and you are mentoring everybody whether you realize it or not.
The Biggest Block to Abundance
When Dr. Louise asked Alana what she sees most in the people she works with, her answer was clear: living someone else’s life.
Whether it is stepping into a parent’s career path, chasing someone else’s definition of success, or simply never pausing to ask what you actually want — this misalignment quietly drains energy, joy, and abundance.
The remedy? Coming back to yourself. Accessing your inner wisdom. And having the courage to step onto your own path.
