We’ve turned intuition into a buzzword—flattened it into a slogan, a gut feeling, or a vague whisper we don’t always know how to hear. But what if intuition is so much more? What if it's one of the most powerful tools we have—and we’ve just forgotten how to use it? In this episode, I’m joined by Hrund Gunnsteinsdóttir , Icelandic thought leader, filmmaker, and author of InnSæi: Icelandic Wisdom for Turbulent Times . Hrund has spent over 20 years studying and teaching the science and art of intuition through her TED Talk, Netflix documentary (InnSæi: The Power of Intuition), and global work on leadership, innovation, and inner knowing. Together, we explore what intuition really is (hint: not woo-woo), how to cultivate it in a culture obsessed with logic and overthinking, and why your ability to listen to yourself might be the most essential skill you can develop. In This Episode, We Cover: ✅ Why we’ve misunderstood intuition—and how to reclaim it ✅ Practical ways to strengthen your intuitive muscle ✅ What Icelandic wisdom teaches us about inner knowing ✅ How to use intuition during uncertainty and decision-making ✅ Why trusting yourself is an act of rebellion (and power) Intuition isn’t magic—it’s a deep, internal guidance system that already exists inside you. The question is: are you listening?

I received a great question the other day from someone who is considering an Airbnb property as their next step in developing an income portfolio.

"How to Make Sure Your Airbnb is Paying for Itself?"

Great question, right?

In today's episode, I answer this question by breaking things down into two main categories...

1. What you can do to set yourself up for success before you actually bring your Airbnb or VRBO property online, and

2. Once you're live, how can you make sure your place is profitable.

Here's the great news... it's actually pretty simple once you know what to focus on.

Do you have a question you'd like me to answer on a future episode? DM me on Instagram @itsginnytownsend or email me directly at hello@ginnytownsend.com

I look forward to hearing from you!

And if you’re curious about how much you could potentially earn with an Airbnb in your area, I can send you a free and pretty powerful tool to help you estimate…

4 years тому24:18

24:18

Are you looking for a long-term revenue stream that could also give you a way to maximize your returns when you sell it one day? This is yet another reason why I love the STR market and why I think you'll love today's episode. Today, I interview Charles Sunnucks, a professional investor and former fund manager who has a knack for simplifying the complicated world of company (or in this case) property valuation. Some of my favorite takeaways of our conversation are: 1. Look at the exit strategy from the get-go. 2. How exactly you could sell your short-term rental for MUCH more than it would be worth retail simply by using this one valuation technique. 3. If you're looking to invest abroad, he shares the 3 things you MUST know before you even look at one property.

Ep 86: The Secret to Achieving Financial Independence (Bold Statement, I Know)... The Power of the Ripple Effect 14:29

4 years тому14:29

14:29

The question I ask in today's episode could change your financial future... I know that's a BOLD statement but I believe it to be a true one. When we focus our actions down to those that have a ripple effect, that is an effect that reaches much further than the effort we put in, this is when we see a REAL transformation to our financial (and any other) situation. Are you looking to achieve financial independence? Do you want to spend more time with the people you love doing the things you love? Are you looking to live a powerful legacy (both financial and otherwise) for your children? It's all about the ripple effect actions... And that's what we're talking about in today's episode. So, after you listen, I encourage you to think about this question... What are you doing today that's bringing a lasting ripple effect in your life? It's not always about the "big rock" moments... It's often times about the small pebbles you keep tossing out that really lead to some amazing ripples. Looking to make a ripple effect and move toward financial independence today? If short-term rentals are right for you, I've got you covered. In The 6-Figure Vacation Rental Roadmap: How to Find, Furnish, and Fill a Profitable Short-Term Rental, I break it all down for you, step by step. You're not alone in this. And you're probably much closer to financial independence than you think. Ready? Let's do this. Visit ginnytownsend.com/rental to get started today! Thanks for joining me.
