Unless you had some kind of utopian upbringing, it’s likely that you were taught how to use logic, reason, and rationale to dictate your choices and actions… to ensure you were doing the “right” thing. But, it’s highly unlikely that someone taught you how to be still, listen to your internal knowing, and lean on your intuition for guidance. In fact, many of us receive a shit-ton of messages about what God deems “right”, what our parents deem “right” or what society tells us is “right”. Nevermind what we intuit as “right”.
So, then you hear personal development peeps (possibly even me) tell you to listen to your intuition and what your “gut is telling you” and you’re like, “Ummmmm… Sure. I’ll get right on that. Right after I do my pros and cons list.” It can feel like a foriegn task to listen to your internal knowing when you have constantly leaned on everyone and everything outside of yourself to aid in your decision-making.
This week on the show, I’m so thrilled to dial up an expert on the subject of Intuition. L’Erin Alta is a powerful medicine woman + mystic living in full devotion to her spiritual calling. She helps black women, femme, and gender expansive folk make money from a soul-filled place. Um, hello! In this rich convo, we discuss the concept of “God” and how that intersects with Intuition, the damaging conditioning of some religion, the connection between intuition and abundance, and what it looks like to lean into and allow your intuition to speak to you. Get ready for a handful of “ah-ha” moments!
This pod explores:
- Understanding the definition of intuition and why it’s so tough for many of us to tap into it
- Untangling guidance from “Source” and religious dogma
- The #1 step to tapping in and honing your intuition
- How intuition is directly related to our relationship with abundance
