Hey there! In this episode, I’m diving deep into the fascinating topic of intuition versus gut feelings. It’s one of those things people often use interchangeably, but they’re not the same—and understanding the difference can change how you navigate your emotions and decision-making.

We started by talking about helping kids understand their emotions, which naturally led to the topic of emotional intelligence. From there, we explored what it means to process emotions properly so they don’t get stuck or resurface unexpectedly. Then, the conversation took a turn into intuition versus gut feelings, and I’m breaking it all down for you in this episode.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

• How your gut feelings are rooted in your nervous system and often tied to past experiences or emotions.

• Why your intuition is completely free from fear and comes from your higher self.

• Real-life examples of how intuition shows up in illogical but powerful ways (like avoiding unexpected trouble).

• The subtle ways your mind tries to talk you out of following your intuition—and how to recognize it.

I’m also sharing how our subconscious plays a role in gut feelings and how past misperceptions can create “false alarms” in our decision-making.

If this resonates with you and you want to dive deeper into understanding emotions and how they shape your life, I’ve got a powerful resource for you. Head over to https://pennychiasson.com/resources to access Resonance, a masterclass on emotions. This is where I unpack:

• How to properly satisfy emotions so they’re fully processed.

• How to recognize if your emotions stem from the past or the present.

• The common adult behaviors tied to unprocessed emotions.

Welcome back to Penny on Your Thoughts! In this episode, I’m tackling the age-old question: Can you have anything you want out of life? The short answer is yes—but there’s a lot more to unpack here. Today, we’re diving deep into how your mindset, stories, and beliefs shape your reality and what it takes to step into the version of yourself who already has everything you desire.

Here’s what we cover:

• Why the word "try" holds you back: It’s not just semantics—it’s about the subconscious association with failure.

• The power of stories: How the narratives we grow up with limit what we believe is possible and how to rewrite them.

• The spiritual connection: Why letting go of “how” and “when” opens the door to unexpected possibilities.

• Identity and success: Shifting your subconscious identity to not just achieve but hold what you create in life.

Plus, I share personal insights about my journey from traditional career paths to building a life of freedom and purpose, breaking through limiting beliefs along the way. 

Key Takeaways:

1. Eliminate words like “try” and “hard” from your vocabulary—they create mental barriers.

2. Let go of controlling how or when things will happen; trust the process.

3. Focus on becoming the person who naturally aligns with the life you want.

This episode is packed with practical insights and a dash of inspiration to help you step into your limitless potential.
