257: Stand at Your Full Height: Serin Silva on Nervous System Leadership, Energy Work, and the Future of Heart-Centered Business

Description

I told you this was going to be a different kind of conversation, and I meant it. Serin Silva spent two decades inside high-pressure corporate environments at companies like MSNBC and Hearst, leading integration communications for billion-dollar acquisitions and overseeing a book of business worth $40 million. She was in rooms where she was often the only woman leader, playing a game with rules she didn't write and didn't always like. And then one morning, crossing the Bay Bridge on her commute, a little voice said: how much longer are you going to do this? That question changed everything. Today Serin is an energy healer, psychic medium, ceremonialist, and business strategist who helps women founders get unstuck and move fast. She brings together nervous system regulation, somatic work, intuitive gifts, and Fortune 500 rigor to help her clients find clarity, focus, and in some cases, double their revenue in under a year. This conversation goes everywhere, and I loved every minute of it. Grab a notebook before you press play. What You'll Hear in This Episode: How two decades in Silicon Valley and corporate media shaped Serin's understanding of what women have been asked to suppress at work The morning on the Bay Bridge that changed her life, and what it looked like to follow a voice she'd been ignoring for years What nervous system regulation actually has to do with business results Why heart-centered leadership isn't soft, and how women are already positioned to lead what's coming next The old corporate model (built for making cars, applied to people), why it's dying, and what's replacing it How Serin thinks about AI as a tool for freeing up more humanity, not less What it means to stop shape-shifting and stand at your full height The kaleidoscope analogy that I'm still thinking about Serin's answer to The Found Podcast closing question that genuinely moved us both Connect with Serin: Website: serinsilva.com Free 15-minute business reading Listen and Subscribe: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5YACTbRulN4NooX32NgzgV Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-found-podcast-with-molly-knuth/id1530616432 Have a notebook nearby for this one.
