  • 280. Is it anxiety or intuition?
    Mar 3 2025

    Intuition is this deep sense of knowing that guides and expands our lives. Anxiety on the other hand restricts us by keeping us beholden to fear. Despite their differences, they can feel remarkably the same, especially if you are someone who has an anxious, overthinking disposition. In today’s episode, we break down how to tell them apart, including:

    • Where anxiety sits in the body
    • How to spot an anxious thought
    • The origin and science of intuition
    • How intuition should feel
    • Why they feel similar
    • My 6 question checklist for telling them apart
    • How to strengthen your connection with your intuition

    Plus personal stories of being saved by a gut instinct and our listener questions! Listen now!
