Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Diane Giunta, founder of Shadowland Creative, located in Centerville, MA, USA.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
As founder of Shadowland, my fundamental belief is set upon the principle that there is unbounded potential when we allow our intuition to guide us. This is a whole different type of learning. Or really…unlearning all the things that are not you, at the core. My readings, teachings, and creative coaching are infused with unique methods for the seeker who is ready to take their own journey and let go of the overlays others have placed on them. True healing happens when we are free to be ourselves from the inside out. Learn how to be guided by your intuition and allow the subconscious to speak and hear the voice of your soul.
Tell us about yourself
I began Shadowland as part of my Masters' studies of shadow work. And in this immersion, I found I, myself, had many shadows looming over my light. So I began my own journey of discovering my inner world and my inner voice.
Learning how to hear the voice of my soul was similar to when I was a child learning to read. Suddenly the letters formed words I understood!
I won't tell you it was easy at first because it was very uncomfortable, as most new ventures are, but I kept at it. Practicing every day, keeping track of the images, words, and impressions I received. Practicing allowed me to find how I best connected to my subconscious messaging. Then one day…wow! I heard loud and clear and UNDERSTOOD the language of my soul.
This is a gift that allows me to tune into the unseen world and help others find their way.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
I would have to say since I began my journey as a solopreneur, I feel accomplished every day by staying my own course and not allowing outside influences to distract me or make me feel behind in some way. Finding my own pathway through has been essential to my positive forward motion.
What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?
It's important not to allow well-meaning friends or family fears to overshadow your light. This has to be one of the most challenging aspects of being a solopreneur. The path I've taken is truly my own, and I believe sharing the ability to have it is my way of giving back the love and gratitude I feel to be so fortunate.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Learn all you can from your birth chart. It has many hidden treasures.
- Trust yourself. This is paramount to anything you do in life.
- Be persistent. Ask for help if you need it. It's not a sign of weakness.
- Allow your soul light to shine!
Is there anything else you'd like to share?
There is belief, and there is knowing. Belief is something contrived when the mind is afraid instead of trusting by faith. Faith is not a belief. Faith has no religious affiliation. Faith is beyond sensory understanding. Faith is trusting in the unseen, inner world that exists within you. And allowing it to guide you with an inner knowing. This is living from the inside out.
