Managing a busy life and making decisions gets a lot easier when you learn to trust your inner wisdom. I’m sharing personal stories and insights from my work as an intuition coach to inspire you to lean into your intuition and take aligned action.

Trusting Intuitive Whispers

I want to share a few moments when my intuition really guided me, and I listened (even when it didn’t make logical sense at first). One that stands out is when I was pregnant with my third child. There was an exciting opportunity to start a business partnership and everything felt right on the surface. The other person and I had a great connection and exciting ideas. There was lots of potential!

But one day, as I pulled into the driveway, my inner voice whispered, “You don’t have to do this.”

And it hit me. Just because I could do it, didn’t mean I had to. It was this little nudge that shifted everything. I decided not to move forward, and it was absolutely the right call. Sometimes your intuition knows things before your mind catches up.

“If It Doesn’t Flow, It’s a No”

Another time, I was invited to be a guest on The Lively Show. (A dream opportunity!) It was short notice, and was supposed to be at the same time as drop off for my kids’ summer camp. I could’ve forced it, but the timing was so tight it felt impossible. My mind was shouting, “MAKE IT HAPPEN!” But when I asked my inner voice, it clearly said, “If it doesn’t flow, it’s a no.”

I was so nervous to decline, but guess what? Bella changed the dates, and I was able to be on the show without the stress of forcing it. That’s the magic of following the flow instead of fighting against it.

Client Stories of Intuition and Inner Wisdom

You’re not alone on this intuition journey. My clients have had incredible experiences with their inner wisdom, too. One of my clients is an author who didn’t have time to work on big projects over the summer, so her inner voice told her to go small and make tiny books. She ended up finishing the draft of a children’s book in miniature form, which is something her mind would never have thought of!

Another client, a working mom of three, was stuck in “grind mode.” Her inner voice gently reminded her to loosen her grip and find more joy in her work. She didn’t have to slow down, but by releasing that tight control, she found more flow and ease in her daily work rhythms.

And in another client session, a busy entrepreneur and graphic designer, I asked her inner voice about how much sleep she needed to feel her best. The answer she received was, “nine.” It was intriguing and a bit unclear. Should she go to bed at 9? Wake up at 9? Sleep for nine hours? We explored it briefly but let it be, trusting that the full message would reveal itself.

Later, while reading Four Thousand Weeks by Oliver Burkeman, she opened straight to Chapter 9, titled “Rediscovering Rest.” The entire chapter was dedicated to the importance of rest and recovery, exactly what her inner voice was nudging her to explore!

Here’s another story, from A Year of Calm alumn, Casey Crowe Taylor:

"I had such a beautiful inner voice moment recently. And I KNEW it was my inner voice from the repetition of sessions with you. It was in the sheer chaos of both kids melting down because they didn’t want to leave the park for nap time.

I heard my inner voice whisper, "This is NOT a season for thriving." I felt immediate relief and acceptance. A year ago, I would not have been able to hear my intuition over my screaming children and the crowd of thoughts inside my mind. Without A Year of Calm and feeling my inner voice speak to me in the sessions, I know FOR SURE, I would have missed this moment.”

Take the Next Step Towards Intuition

Your intuition is always there, ready to guide you. You don’t need to force it. Start by simply asking, “What do I need?” and listen. It might be subtle, but the more you tune in, the more you’ll recognize that inner nudge.

Take a moment to reflect what these stories sparked for you. Where can you trust your intuition more? What is your inner voice guiding you towards?
