We recently connected with Alice Hu and have shared our conversation below.

Alright, Alice thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. So let’s jump to your mission – what’s the backstory behind how you developed the mission that drives your brand?

Astrology is a tool for introspection. When I discovered it a few years ago, I knew I had to share it with others. With my practical approach, more people are able to understand how astrology can help them in their career and business. I am dedicated to making astrology more accessible and sharing my perspective on this modality as an Asian American woman.

Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.

I spent 10+ years in corporate working in digital marketing. In my late 20s, I had an existential crisis (now I understand it’s an astrological milestone called Saturn Return). I explored modalities like yoga, mindfulness, and astrology. I found them to be so helpful during my journey in discovering what I should do next in my life that I started a company to share the practical application of astrology and spiritual modalities.

Astrology allows you to understand yourself and your own timing. Is it a good time to switch jobs? Am I in a season where I am focused spending time with myself or being in partnership? Is it a good time to start a business?

I believe it can empower you to embrace who you are, what you desire, and confidently take action to make your dreams a reality.

As a Career Astrologer, I help you navigate career changes and share insights to help you in business. People come to me when the want to switch jobs, pivot to a new industry, start a business, find new ways to make money, how to find their next job, decide which business idea to pursue, receive guidance on how to get out of their own way, learn when they will face challenges, understand their gifts and talents, dive into their ideal customer profile, and more.

People work with me by getting their Expanded Career Astrology Report, booking a 1:1 Career Astrology Reading, purchasing a self-guided course, and/or booking a corporate wellness event/astrology team building workshop.

What sets me apart from other astrologers is my focus on career and business + my business experience in corporate and start-ups. My international experience working in Asia and global teams adds to how my business experience influences my ability to understand my clients’ problems and environments they need to navigate. I am also a first-generation Chinese American woman who is bringing my lived experiences to the field of astrology.

I am extremely proud to be celebrating the one year anniversary of SATURN, my career astrology website. It is first resource of its kind to help people navigate career changes and how to start a business by using astrology. 8,000+ people have downloaded their free career astrology report and 100s of them have gotten their expanded career astrology reports.

We often hear about learning lessons – but just as important is unlearning lessons. Have you ever had to unlearn a lesson?

I’ve needed to redefine what success means and honor my own needs as I build my business. There were so many times I wanted to quit but I kept going. I told myself I needed to face my fears and that it is always darkest before the dawn. When you have your own business, it’s not a sprint, it’s a marathon. Do what you need to sustain yourself and the business. Sustainable growth is key. I’ve learned that there isn’t failure, just opportunities to grow. Another big lesson I’ve learned is that there is nothing wrong in taking freelance gigs or working your 9-5 until you know your business can support you financially!

Any insights you can share with us about how you built up your social media presence?

Although I have a marketing background, sharing about yourself and your business brings a different challenge when creating and executing a social media strategy. Here are some important key learnings.

1. Make sure you offer (product or service) is very clear.
2. Make it easy for people to buy from you.
3. Be confident in what you are selling and your company.
4. Post on Instagram and/or Tiktok twice a day. Figure out what works and continue to build on those learnings.
5. Engage your audience by answering their comments and learning about their needs.

I most recently ran a social media experiment where I did all of these things for two months. The results? 4,000+ follower growth on Instagram. 5,000+ follower growth on Tiktok. Multiple viral videos on both platforms. It works!
