It’s an extremely common question – is this feeling fear, intuition, or a trauma response? Each of these deserves to be honored, and understanding their differences can help you navigate them in the moment. In this episode, we explore fear and intuition and how each shapes our choices, experiences, and inner desires. 

We dive into the root causes of fear and how intuition often operates unconsciously. We discuss the common tendency to pit fear against intuition and how trauma, faith, and trust impact your relationship with fear. We also touch on how to forgive yourself for societal-conditioned reactions and embrace every experience – even the painful ones – as they shape who you are.
