What if our professional identity is just one of many masks we wear? Through an unexpected connection between astrology, business, and a years-old onboarding exercise, I discovered that my instinct to protect and build might actually be my greatest strength.
Am I chasing a “twin flame employer,” or am I like Paula Cole in her 1996 hit “Where Have All the Cowboys Gone?” — misunderstood in the search itself. The song was meant as social commentary, yet many heard only a longing for cowboys; maybe the same happens in careers, when alignment gets mistaken for chasing perfection.
Businesses have energy systems just like people do. When one department falters, others overcompensate — leading to burnout, miscommunication, and imbalance across the entire organization. By looking at companies through the lens of chakras, we can better understand how alignment (or misalignment) affects culture, strategy, and growth. In this post, I explore the seven “business chakras,” how they mirror human energy systems, and practical steps leaders can take to restore balance.
Ever since I can remember, I’ve been searching for ways to align my chakras. Why? Our chakras are our energy-center systems—when they’re not balanced, chaos ensues. This can play out on any level: social, emotional, intellectual, or physical, and can be explored through both collective and individual perspectives.
