If you're on social media these days, everyone tells you the same thing: 'Just listen to your gut feeling.'

But I want to say the opposite is true.

Because what if your strongest intuition — your so-called gut feeling — is actually coming out of a past wound?

This is true for everyone who experienced childhood trauma.

In this video, I’ll reveal to you 7 clear signs that it’s trauma — not your intuition — speaking.

My goal is that after this video you can tell for sure if it's your gut instinct speaking, or a past trauma reaction.

Plus, I’ll share some of the best tools, techniques, and strategies I’ve learned over four years of therapy to help you reconnect with your true gut instinct.
