About Stacie Shifflett:

Stacie is the founder of Modern Consciousness and a master of transformation. She has successfully acquired and scaled businesses, pioneered government tech innovations, and now dedicates her life to guiding others through conscious living.

Key Takeaways: 

Most of our decisions are unconscious. Many of us believe we’re in control, but much of our behavior is driven by deep-rooted conditioning.
Recognizing autopilot mode is the first step. If your life feels like a constant rush, dictated by schedules rather than intentional choices, you may be stuck in autopilot.
Listening to your intuition can change everything. Stacie shares how trusting her inner voice led her to a multimillion-dollar business deal with no upfront investment.
Fear of change is natural. We are wired to resist change, but structured self-awareness can help us navigate through it.
Small, intentional steps create lasting transformation. Rather than trying to change everything at once, start by assessing where you are and making small shifts toward the life you truly want.
