Quotes from Episode:
"Our intuitive capacities strengthen like any muscle over time with practice and with getting to know ourselves better. But the easiest way to start is with your gut and to listen when something doesn't feel right in your body.
“The gut connection or whether you want to call it intuition is incredibly right. It's incredibly fine-tuned and so I think it's important to be able to differentiate slowly with time and practice the difference between a fear and an intuition.”
