Business In Retrograde

We are standing at one of the most significant astrological turning points we've seen in years—but this episode isn't predicting the future but rather understanding who this moment is asking you to become.With Barbault's Basket reaching its peak, Mercury stationing direct, the lunar nodes shifting into the Leo–Aquarius axis, Saturn preparing to retrograde, and Leo season beginning, the astrology is pointing toward one larger conversation: leadership.In this episode, I break down why self-expression, courage, confidence, purpose and leadership are all part of the same developmental process, why confidence is something we build rather than something we wait for, and how this moment is exposing the gap between the future we're asking for and the version of ourselves currently trying to build it.Whether you're an entrepreneur, creative or simply navigating your own next chapter, this conversation will challenge you to think beyond strategy and ask a much deeper question:Who do you need to become to responsibly meet what's becoming possible?Connect with me:Instagram @kessli.hallWebsite: kesslihall.comGet the AI Astrology & HD Business Consulting Tool- The Mirror
