From dealing with bias and discrimination in the workplace to not being taken seriously as engineers or computer scientists, women in tech can feel like they are up against insurmountable odds at times. Similarly, when making your way in your own business, all the advice seems at odds with the way that many women want to show up. But what if there was a tool that women could access to help them overcome these challenges? Intuition is a powerful force that can help us connect with our inner wisdom and guidance, and can be a tremendous asset in any field, including business and tech.

Conclusion
Intuition is a powerful tool that we all have access to, but often don’t use in our business or careers. Women in business or tech can benefit from learning how to access their intuition and make better decisions using this inner wisdom. By incorporating intuition into their work, they can become better leaders and more successful in their field. In a study by Frederick et al., intuition was found to be more accurate than logical reasoning when it came to making decisions. Intuitive decisions are based on feelings and gut instincts, whereas logical decisions are based on numbers and data. Intuition often takes into account things that data cannot, such as personal experience and emotions. This makes it a powerful tool for making decisions in difficult or ambiguous situations. Many women in business or tech feel like they have to make decisions based on data and logic, and that their intuition is not taken seriously. However, if they learn how to access and trust their intuition, they can become better leaders and more successful in their field. Intuition can help them make better decisions, connect with others on a deeper level, and deal with difficult situations.
Women in business or tech need to access their intuition to be successful. By learning how to trust their gut instinct, pay attention to their body, and connect with their intuition, they can make better decisions and achieve greater success in their field. While many factors contribute to the success of women in business or tech, intuition is a key component that is often overlooked. To achieve equality in these environments and industries, we need to start using all of the tools available to us. Intuition is a powerful tool that we all have access to, and it’s time for women in business and tech to start using it. The bottom line is that intuition is a powerful superpower that is readily available to women in business and tech. When this author began utilizing her intuition in her engineering career it completely changed. From being an outsider who couldn’t be seen by her male boss, to creating an award-winning company culture, intuition is powerful.

I learned a lot!
In 2020 I launched my first group coaching program. Even though I had been a coach for over 15 years, I had yet to experiment bringing a group of diverse women together in this format.
The group became The Purple Hair Revolution 🦄 and it ran for a year.
The main learning was that women in groups are powerful. 🔥
They share deeply and so much healing happens in the sharing. They are also great supporters and cheerleaders of their peers – they are genuinely rooting for each other.
This is particularly interesting to me because outside of these containers women are constantly placed in situations where they are forced to compete.
Over and over again in my work with women they tell me that competition is a concept that is alien to them, but they don’t know how to do life, career, business or success any other way.
The Purple Hair Revolution ran for two 6 month cycles and by the end of the second cycle I knew it was time to take a break.
I had created a space for women to come together and they greatly valued that, but my role in the group had shifted from changemaker, coach and mentor to what felt more like facilitator of a coffee group.
There is enormous value in these circles and I have many amazing colleagues who hold phenomenal spaces for these conversations.
But that is not me.
I am here to assist you to find the shifts you need to be able to answer and follow your calling and work with the fear and discomfort that raises.
Women’s groups (likely called The Purple Hair Revolution 😛) are definitely part of my future, but they will look different.
I am developing a 12 week program where you will learn and experience some of my more powerful tools from my training in coaching, neuro-linguistic programming, mBraining, neuroscience, cognitive behaviour coaching and many, many more to help you to answer YOUR calling and step into your Technicolour Life in a bold, genuine, authentic and successful way. ✨

You have more than one ‘brain’ – try this!
The truth is that the inner critic work is complex at times, but it can also be quick to unhook when you know the right approaches to use.
The biggest problem that I see is that we try to solve the problem with the same thinking that causes the problem. We are much more than one dimensional beings, so tapping into those multiple dimensions or intelligences is key to this success.
Did you know that there is more and more research that supports the theory that we have multiple ‘brains’?
If that language is a bit of a stretch for you, think more of them as intelligences. We have groups of neurons in our brain for sure, but we also have a neural network in our heart that is about the same size as a cat’s brain, and there is a whole new field emerging on gastroenterology and ENS that is being called the second brain.
Each of the ‘brains’ have specific functions and when you understand how they work, and how they work together, it can open up to deep inner wisdom and knowing that you never knew you had!
Here is an introductory experience of tapping into your 3 ‘brains’. We can then use this to work through specific challenges.
Journal Prompts
- What was the scenario your recalled or imagined?
- Where did you feel the passion? Can you describe the feeling?
- What opportunities or ideas did you come up with? What did you get curious about?
- What motivated action did you feel the impulse to take?
- What else did you notice as you experienced the practice?
Remember to share your experience of the practice and/or your insights below.
Results from clients:
“I LOVED the results I had from the Brain-Heart-Gut coaching session. It was incredible to make so many connections in such a short period of time. I realized that I had been silencing my gut’s intuition for a long time and there was a lot it had to say. After the session, I felt so much more in alignement with myself and hopeful again. This was huge for me because I’ve been struggling with depression for the past year. And while so many epiphanies came from that one session, so many more have come since then, one of which kept me out of falling into a bad situation. Anybody who’s dealing with conflicting emotions or thoughts should definitely make the jump to try this form of coaching because it will help in so many ways. ” – Lydia Cerdhe
“Lorraine is so clever at getting the gut, brain and heart to talk to each other, something I thought was airy fairy (gave it a go though) until I immediately saw a shift in clarity and the fog of confusion lifted. I’ve left today’s session feeling a lot lighter, clearer on what I need to do and excited to do it.” – Sarah-Jayne Shine
“Lorraine genuinely cares and empowers those lucky enough to cross her path, I consider myself fortunate to be one of them and encourage anyone considering working with her to jump in boots and all.” – Sonia McIndoe
This is just one of many techniques and approaches that I am including in my upcoming program for women who are ready to step into their Technicolour Life and completely reframe the way they work with their inner critic.
