This is one of the questions I get asked the most, and I totally understand why. Intuition and anxiety use the same channels in your body, they both live in your gut, and they can feel incredibly similar. So how do you actually tell the difference?

In this episode, I break down the key differences between intuition and anxiety, from how they feel in your body to how they sound when you say them out loud. I share the tools I use to discern between the two, including why starting with small decisions is everything when it comes to building trust with your intuition. I also talk about what it really feels like to follow your intuition, why it can feel so vulnerable, and why that space in between the leap and the landing is actually where the magic happens.

If you have ever wondered whether that voice inside you is wisdom or worry, this one is for you.
