  SPEAKER_00: Hi, welcome back to the Fitzin Project.
• 1:08
  SPEAKER_00: I'm Rachel Fitzpatrick.
• 1:11
  SPEAKER_00: And I hope you had the best weekend.
• 1:15
  SPEAKER_00: I want to tell you about mine real quick.
• 1:17
  SPEAKER_00: As always, but um Friday I went to the very first, my very first um like races on a dirt track.
• 1:29
  SPEAKER_00: It's called the Ponderosa Speedway here in Kentucky, and it was so much fun.
• 1:35
  SPEAKER_00: Like these cars go round and round and round, and it's just a dirt track circle, and there's a literal inside of the pit and everything else.
• 1:47
  SPEAKER_00: And it was just like so exhilarating.
• 1:49
  SPEAKER_00: It's like, oh my god, are you gonna wreck?
• 1:51
  SPEAKER_00: Are you gonna keep going?
• 1:52
  SPEAKER_00: What is happening?
• 1:53
  SPEAKER_00: You don't really know.
• 1:54
  SPEAKER_00: But it was so fun when they would all like get together.
• 1:59
  SPEAKER_00: And then uh the person I was with, our friend Steph, she said it best it was like uh watching synchronized swimming, and it really was kind of just like that, like watching synchronized swimming, but in cars when they would start and then go around.
• 2:14
  SPEAKER_00: But anyway, uh Theo had enough of it and we left early.
• 2:18
  SPEAKER_00: But that was pretty much um awesome and wasn't even the highlight of my weekend, which is even better.
• 2:26
  SPEAKER_00: But that was one of the things that happened this weekend.
• 2:29
  SPEAKER_00: And then another part was I got to go shopping with my mom.
• 2:33
  SPEAKER_00: It was so cool.
• 2:35
  SPEAKER_00: It was so cool to get to have just a day with my mom and us going and uh getting things for the wedding and talking about the wedding and dreaming about the wedding and blah blah blah blah about the wedding, wedding, wedding.
• 2:49
  SPEAKER_00: But it was so cool.
• 2:50
  SPEAKER_00: So anyway, as you can tell, I'm real like excited and still thinking about it and just makes me happy.
• 2:57
  SPEAKER_00: It was a good memory of a weekend.
• 2:59
  SPEAKER_00: But I hope you had the same.
• 3:01
  SPEAKER_00: I hope yours was awesome.
• 3:03
  SPEAKER_00: Hope you had a really great time um celebrating Easter if that's your thing, or being with friends and family if that's your thing, or being out in nature.
• 3:12
  SPEAKER_00: I just hope it was something that was felt good for you.
• 3:17
  SPEAKER_00: And it was something you chose to do.
• 3:21
  SPEAKER_00: Which brings me into today's conversation.
• 3:24
  SPEAKER_00: I really want to discuss intuition.
• 3:28
  SPEAKER_00: Intuition, what the heck?
• 3:31
  SPEAKER_00: I remember when I first learned about intuition, follow your gut.
• 3:37
  SPEAKER_00: And um, what does that even mean?
• 3:40
  SPEAKER_00: Like, follow your gut.
• 3:42
  SPEAKER_00: I feel like I've talked about this on the podcast several times, and I know people who I've had on talk about it as well.
• 3:49
  SPEAKER_00: But one of the biggest things is like the definition is so simple.
• 3:55
  SPEAKER_00: It's literally that built-in skill of knowing something without actually having to actively think it through.
• 4:06
  SPEAKER_00: So there's so much to unpack there.
• 4:10
  SPEAKER_00: And the intuition is knowing something without having to actually think it through.
• 4:20
  SPEAKER_00: So there's like that fine line between getting caught up into intuition and overthinking.
• 4:25
  SPEAKER_00: And that's what I want to really kind of dive into today.
• 4:29
  SPEAKER_00: But like when I very first remembered this word coming up and around, like, follow your gut.
• 4:35
  SPEAKER_00: What does your gut say?
• 4:37
  SPEAKER_00: I would always be at a crossroads.
• 4:40
  SPEAKER_00: And it's after I'd already thought about it 500 ways a Sunday on what should I do?
• 4:47
  SPEAKER_00: So for a big one for me growing up, when I wanted to quit cheerleading team in high school, like for one, it it was cool because you were nostalgic and y'all, you're on the cheerleading team.
• 5:00
  SPEAKER_00: And our cheerleading team is actually pretty good.
• 5:02
  SPEAKER_00: We went to nationals and we um were like the first seeker, first not seekers, but the first era of teams to be really good in Lincoln County for cheerleading.
• 5:15
  SPEAKER_00: Uh, no offense to anyone prior to 2002.
• 5:19
  SPEAKER_00: But either way, um, you know, you already know we were pretty freaking good.
• 5:24
  SPEAKER_00: But at the same time, like I hated it.
• 5:28
  SPEAKER_00: It sucked because while our talent was good, the energy was just ugh puke worthy.
• 5:35
  SPEAKER_00: Oh my God, it was terrible.
• 5:37
  SPEAKER_00: So also like the coach sucked.
• 5:40
  SPEAKER_00: I was a junior in high school.
• 5:42
  SPEAKER_00: I'm sure I sucked.
• 5:44
  SPEAKER_00: I'm sure it was just a whole collective of things that was just puke worthy.
• 5:50
  SPEAKER_00: Again, like that word just keeps coming up.
• 5:52
  SPEAKER_00: Someone keeps saying it.
• 5:54
  SPEAKER_00: But anyway, I remember being at that crossroads, like, oh, I really could stay, and I also could go.
• 6:05
  SPEAKER_00: Like, what would I give myself if I left?
• 6:10
  SPEAKER_00: So I thought through all of these like pros and cons.
• 6:13
  SPEAKER_00: And that's when my parents were like, Well, what does your gut say?
• 6:16
  SPEAKER_00: My dad, that was like his famous question.
• 6:18
  SPEAKER_00: What does your gut say?
• 6:19
  SPEAKER_00: And I'm like, I don't know.
• 6:21
  SPEAKER_00: I it doesn't talk.
• 6:24
  SPEAKER_00: I can't hear it, you know?
• 6:25
  SPEAKER_00: Like, I have no idea.
• 6:27
  SPEAKER_00: What is it?
• 6:28
  SPEAKER_00: What does your say except feed me?
• 6:31
  SPEAKER_00: But I don't know what it is saying.
• 6:34
  SPEAKER_00: I can't understand myself.
• 6:37
  SPEAKER_00: You never taught me that at five, and now I'm supposed to know it at 16.
• 6:42
  SPEAKER_00: This is this is a me problem or a you problem?
• 6:44
  SPEAKER_00: I don't know.
• 6:45
  SPEAKER_00: But anyway, I ended up quitting because my pros and cons list got me through.
• 6:54
  SPEAKER_00: But the initiation of that was my intuition.
• 6:58
  SPEAKER_00: Right?
• 6:59
  SPEAKER_00: Like I already said, the energy was terrible.
• 7:03
  SPEAKER_00: It was not a good time.
• 7:05
  SPEAKER_00: It was like forcing a square into a circle.
• 7:10
  SPEAKER_00: It just didn't work for me as an individual, as a person, as Rachel Fitzpatrick, being a cheerleader in high school.
• 7:19
  SPEAKER_00: Like, obviously, the world will continue to turn and life will go on, and the high school will remain in its energetic nonsense with or without me.
• 7:33
  SPEAKER_00: And it sure as shit did.
• 7:34
  SPEAKER_00: And you know what?
• 7:35
  SPEAKER_00: I had the best time.
• 7:36
  SPEAKER_00: I quit and I got to go to the games as like a spectator, and we made shirts, and my senior year was so much fun because like I wasn't stuck on the sidelines.
• 7:48
  SPEAKER_00: I was up in the stands with my friends, and we had the biggest pep rally, whatever, entourage.
• 7:56
  SPEAKER_00: It was so much more fun cheering in the stands than it was on the sideline in a uniform.
• 8:02
  SPEAKER_00: And that to me was freedom, right?
• 8:06
  SPEAKER_00: So, like my intuition knew that if I wanted to have an inkling of happiness in my high school year, cheer wasn't it.
• 8:15
  SPEAKER_00: Boom.
• 8:16
  SPEAKER_00: Period.
• 8:17
  SPEAKER_00: So, anyway, a lot of other things have happened since then that I had a very hard time understanding on what is my intuition, what does my gut say?
• 8:27
  SPEAKER_00: And I kind of found intuition backwards.
• 8:30
  SPEAKER_00: And I'll I'll show you what I mean.
• 8:33
  SPEAKER_00: Like that intuition piece, that thing that I said earlier, a built-in skill of knowing something without having to actively think it through, I got caught up in a whole lot of overthinking, overthinking, overthinking, overthinking.
• 8:48
  SPEAKER_00: And then time would go by and then I would do nothing, and then like no action is still an answer.
• 8:54
  SPEAKER_00: But it wasn't the answer that I really wanted to have until I freaking just got it.
• 9:00
  SPEAKER_00: And like I said, intuition is that skill, a built-in skill.
• 9:06
  SPEAKER_00: But a skill, if you don't um muscle it, grow it, you're not gonna get to it.
• 9:13
  SPEAKER_00: You don't see it, you can't acknowledge it, you can't be with it, right?
• 9:18
  SPEAKER_00: So that's how I learned a little bit on how to trust my intuition.
• 9:22
  SPEAKER_00: I did a lot of pros and cons lists on things.
• 9:26
  SPEAKER_00: I started journaling.
• 9:27
  SPEAKER_00: I did that.
• 9:28
  SPEAKER_00: That was a big, big help.
• 9:30
  SPEAKER_00: Um, journaling on questions, on things, on life.
• 9:33
  SPEAKER_00: And now I just do it.
• 9:34
  SPEAKER_00: Now it's just like my daily thing.
• 9:37
  SPEAKER_00: Um journaling is a huge therapeutic practice for me.
• 9:45
  SPEAKER_00: And it it's great.
• 9:48
  SPEAKER_00: It's just one of those things where you can just get it all out on paper.
• 9:52
  SPEAKER_00: And whether or not you actually say it out loud to somebody for me and myself, it is an act of streamlined straight to my conscious awareness.
• 10:03
  SPEAKER_00: So when I'm journaling, it's like I'm really tapping in to my deepest, darkest hopes and desires and feelings.
• 10:12
  SPEAKER_00: And that's that's how it works for me.
• 10:15
  SPEAKER_00: Um, but when you're kind of in that, there's a lot of things that go wrong here.
• 10:21
  SPEAKER_00: And and it happens from a little bit of childhood too.
• 10:24
  SPEAKER_00: So, like, have you ever told your parents, like I did when I was little, wanted to be a hairdresser?
• 10:30
  SPEAKER_00: And my dad immediately was like, No, you don't.
• 10:34
  SPEAKER_00: You want to be a lawyer.
• 10:36
  SPEAKER_00: You've and I'm like, sure, I guess.
• 10:41
  SPEAKER_00: Um, see how great I am at arguing with you and speaking up from myself and uh telling you that I actually don't want to be a lawyer, but I'll let you believe that that's what I want to be because I guess that's what I'm gonna be.
• 10:56
  SPEAKER_00: Or um here's another one, like being scared as a little kid.
• 11:01
  SPEAKER_00: I do this to Theo sometimes, and I'm like, dang, I should really not.
• 11:05
  SPEAKER_00: But at the same time, trust me, I'm getting somewhere with this.
• 11:09
  SPEAKER_00: I'm like, there's he'll be like, I'm scared.
• 11:11
  SPEAKER_00: I'm like, there's nothing to be afraid of.
• 11:14
  SPEAKER_00: And there, and there's really not anything to be afraid of, right?
• 11:18
  SPEAKER_00: Like in reality, it's all an illusion.
• 11:20
  SPEAKER_00: There's not anything to be afraid of.
• 11:24
  SPEAKER_00: There are people that you sh could be scared of for sure, because you know, collateral damage and um ones and disruption of power, and need I say more.
• 11:36
  SPEAKER_00: But things like being afraid of the dark, it's the same in the light, right?
• 11:42
  SPEAKER_00: So when kids say that too, like I oftentimes do here, are you a baby or a big kid?
• 11:50
  SPEAKER_00: And you kind of shame it, shame them out of their fear, and that's not really fun.
• 11:56
  SPEAKER_00: That's not something you really want to imply to your children, or like he doesn't want to hug grandpa, you know?
• 12:07
  SPEAKER_00: Why would you make him hug grandpa?
• 12:09
  SPEAKER_00: That's what you would want, and that's what I'm getting at.
• 12:12
  SPEAKER_00: Like, it's not that my dad doesn't want me to be a hairdresser, he wants me to be a lawyer.
• 12:18
  SPEAKER_00: That's what he wants, right?
• 12:20
  SPEAKER_00: So it's kind of like that um childhood response that you got that is based on someone else's beliefs and values, not your own.
• 12:33
  SPEAKER_00: So when we get enough of that, when we get that in like overload as children or as adults, even, and like we get that in overload, we start conditioning ourselves to drop our intuition, that skill, that inner knowing skill.
• 12:49
  SPEAKER_00: And we just like don't listen to it anymore.
• 12:53
  SPEAKER_00: And we're like, because it's just not um good enough for who, right?
• 13:00
  SPEAKER_00: When we are told over and over and over again, like, no, you're not, you don't want to be that, you're not scared, you can go hug your grandpa when we're told like all of those things over and over and over again that overwrite our in our inner knowing and our inner awareness.
• 13:21
  SPEAKER_00: Well, then we get that leak of we don't hold our own intuition anymore.
• 13:32
  SPEAKER_00: Like listening to others.
• 13:34
  SPEAKER_00: That yes, I think we should totally listen to others.
• 13:38
  SPEAKER_00: I absolutely do.
• 13:40
  SPEAKER_00: I love having this podcast and listening to other people's perspectives.
• 13:44
  SPEAKER_00: I do.
• 13:44
  SPEAKER_00: And I love to read books and get into someone else's psyche on why they would write something so cool and like how they evaluate life and what they see life as.
• 13:57
  SPEAKER_00: But adopting that, adopting their um ways and their beliefs and their things, and you become attached to that.
• 14:08
  SPEAKER_00: Well, that's where you drop your intuition to attach to somebody else's beliefs.
• 14:15
  SPEAKER_00: And that's how that happens.
• 14:16
  SPEAKER_00: That's how we lose it.
• 14:18
  SPEAKER_00: And listening to others at the end of the day is all okay, but you don't have to believe them in essence.
• 14:27
  SPEAKER_00: You know, you get to make a choice every single time.
• 14:32
  SPEAKER_00: And that's the conscious living part.
• 14:34
  SPEAKER_00: That's the agreements.
• 14:36
  SPEAKER_00: That's what uh Miguel Don Ruiz, Don Miguel Ruiz, Don Miguel Ruiz wrote in the uh four agreements, and like attachment is one of them, you know, just become unattached and come back to your childlike ways.
• 14:51
  SPEAKER_00: That's what Jesus even said.
• 14:52
  SPEAKER_00: Come back to your childlike ways.
• 14:55
  SPEAKER_00: So then you can see the light, right?
• 14:57
  SPEAKER_00: Like your childlike ways are there's that way before your dad was like, no, you want to be a lawyer.
• 15:03
  SPEAKER_00: The childlike way was I'm gonna be a hairdresser.
• 15:06
  SPEAKER_00: That's the childlike way we come back to, right?
• 15:08
  SPEAKER_00: And that's how you build into that intuition and that inner knowing and that inner skill.
• 15:14
  SPEAKER_00: And that's a tap, right?
• 15:19
  SPEAKER_00: So you can tap back into these things and you can, and it's not that these people are terrible or they're wrong or whatever.
• 15:29
  SPEAKER_00: That's not that at all.
• 15:31
  SPEAKER_00: It's that they every one of us love g guiding people, no matter what.
• 15:38
  SPEAKER_00: We always have an opinion about what someone else is doing or not doing, because that's just how a human, that's just our human nature.
• 15:47
  SPEAKER_00: We always have that opinion.
• 15:49
  SPEAKER_00: And we like to self-express it, and especially on children, they're impressionable.
• 15:54
  SPEAKER_00: And you want your child to be able to live in society without being a great A asshole, but you also want your child to live in society and have confidence and be empowered and know themselves.
• 16:11
  SPEAKER_00: So there's that like yin and yang, that beautiful paradox.
• 16:15
  SPEAKER_00: I believe I had Prashanti on here a couple of weeks ago, and she wrote a book about uh the paradox of the Taoism, and she speak spoke of this.
• 16:26
  SPEAKER_00: They all speak of it.
• 16:27
  SPEAKER_00: But I really loved having that conversation with her.
• 16:30
  SPEAKER_00: She's just such a beautiful soul.
• 16:31
  SPEAKER_00: That's just the one thing that comes out in my mind.
• 16:34
  SPEAKER_00: Or when we were talking on um the another podcast I had with Heath Armstrong, and he's talking about this as well.
• 16:42
  SPEAKER_00: But one of the coolest things is his Rage Create calendar.
• 16:47
  SPEAKER_00: Even today, it is saying, listen to others but never believe them.
• 16:52
  SPEAKER_00: They mostly regurgitate piles of shit taught to them by external constructs and illusions that are not of their truth either.
• 17:01
  SPEAKER_00: Listening will help you reflect where you are in your journey, but never buy into someone else's truth if it doesn't align with yours.
• 17:09
  SPEAKER_00: Likewise, do not force your truth onto others, because for them your story is not true.
• 17:15
  SPEAKER_00: Underneath the illusions, you are a pure channel of source energy and divine creativity.
• 17:21
  SPEAKER_00: When you play in your fire or your truth, you'll inspire others just by being in your power.
• 17:28
  SPEAKER_00: This may help them discover their own fire too.
• 17:31
  SPEAKER_00: Then you can hold hands and dance around the flames in your birthday suits at 3 a.m., completely sober, annoying the piss out of your gossipy neighbors who secretly want to be naked and free with you too.
• 17:43
  SPEAKER_00: Like that is like today's message.
• 17:46
  SPEAKER_00: And it's just right on par with all of this.
• 17:50
  SPEAKER_00: I was having this conversation with my mom when we went shopping this weekend.
• 17:54
  SPEAKER_00: Um it is just where the energy is right now.
• 17:58
  SPEAKER_00: But where it is right now is like staying connected with yourself.
• 18:03
  SPEAKER_00: And there's so many modalities, and I talk about the modalities all the time.
• 18:08
  SPEAKER_00: So another one that I love to use it right now, especially is crystals.
• 18:14
  SPEAKER_00: I love using crystals in meditation, and I never thought that I would be so into it like that.
• 18:24
  SPEAKER_00: Into it, how punny.
• 18:27
  SPEAKER_00: But yeah, I am, and I'm loving it.
• 18:30
  SPEAKER_00: I'm loving the crystals, especially like sitting with an amethyst or a labradite.
• 18:35
  SPEAKER_00: I've got this big one that I just bought in Lexington.
• 18:38
  SPEAKER_00: I don't know what store, but anyway, it's really I don't know.
• 18:42
  SPEAKER_00: I just feel connected with them and it feels like I'm connected with the piece of verse.
• 18:46
  SPEAKER_00: But that's just something that helps me dive into my intuition, holding them.
• 18:52
  SPEAKER_00: Creative expressions.
• 18:53
  SPEAKER_00: You know, people tell you all the time, well, go draw.
• 18:56
  SPEAKER_00: You know, just draw for a minute.
• 18:58
  SPEAKER_00: See what you make, just see what it is that happens.
• 19:01
  SPEAKER_00: That's how you flex that intuition muscle is you just let the time happen while you do the activity.
• 19:09
  SPEAKER_00: Um, walking meditation is one of them.
• 19:11
  SPEAKER_00: Also, meditation.
• 19:13
  SPEAKER_00: Meditation is such a buzzword.
• 19:15
  SPEAKER_00: People love it and they hate it, and they don't do it, and it doesn't matter.
• 19:21
  SPEAKER_00: Does not matter.
• 19:22
  SPEAKER_00: Meditation is literally just like the being able to sit in silence with yourself and your thoughts.
• 19:29
  SPEAKER_00: Your thoughts are gonna think.
• 19:31
  SPEAKER_00: That's what your brain is born for.
• 19:34
  SPEAKER_00: It was you're made to think.
• 19:36
  SPEAKER_00: You're not gonna ever not have a thought.
• 19:39
  SPEAKER_00: But can you become a loving witness to the thought?
• 19:46
  SPEAKER_00: Now that is the skill for meditation that you flex when you want to be the witness of the thought, and when you're the witness of the thought, you are tapped into intuition in spirit, and that's how that goes.
• 20:05
  SPEAKER_00: Just another way to tap it.
• 20:07
  SPEAKER_00: I do that too every day, every day, and it doesn't take long.
• 20:12
  SPEAKER_00: Like for me, it's a five to ten minute session, right?
• 20:15
  SPEAKER_00: For me, it's five to ten minutes writing.
• 20:18
  SPEAKER_00: I can find five to ten minutes to do that, and then like I'd also find 15 minutes to work out in a day.
• 20:26
  SPEAKER_00: Fifteen.
• 20:27
  SPEAKER_00: That's it.
• 20:28
  SPEAKER_00: And that's part of me taking care of my body and me taking care of my mind, and me making sure I speak with integrity and authenticity on every level platform that I show up at.
• 20:42
  SPEAKER_00: That's how I flex my intuition skill.
• 20:46
  SPEAKER_00: And then when you start to develop it, you begin to trust it, and then you begin to be able to act in it and with it, and you allow it to help guide you with some mindful awareness.
• 20:59
  SPEAKER_00: And that's it.
• 21:00
  SPEAKER_00: So when you're like, oh let me ask my gut, that's the asking, that's checking in.
• 21:07
  SPEAKER_00: And it's really just like getting quiet enough to check it, check in.
• 21:15
  SPEAKER_00: So an another thing that I love using with the yoga, for example, is finding body awareness.
• 21:23
  SPEAKER_00: I will practice with my eyes closed.
• 21:26
  SPEAKER_00: Now, am I doing forearm stands and headstands and a bunch of like uh all of these like crazy Instagram poses with my eyes closed?
• 21:36
  SPEAKER_00: No, I'm not.
• 21:38
  SPEAKER_00: Come on.
• 21:40
  SPEAKER_00: Have you seen me?
• 21:41
  SPEAKER_00: Check out Instagram if you haven't.
• 21:44
  SPEAKER_00: Like, this is not what I'm about at all.
• 21:47
  SPEAKER_00: But when I am doing yoga with my eyes closed, here's what I'm doing I'm literally going from a forward fold, like Uttanasana in a halfway lift, and folding again, and then standing up in My mountain pose, my tadasana.
• 22:03
  SPEAKER_00: And I literally close my eyes and allow my shoulders to just fall from my ears and stand extremely tall, getting the longest spaces I can in my vertebrae and my neck.
• 22:16
  SPEAKER_00: And I feel for a minute where is my body in time and space?
• 22:23
  SPEAKER_00: And then I will reach my hands up and I will fold forward and I will halfway lift and I will fold forward and then I'll reach my hands back up and I'll fold forward and I'll halfway lift and I'll shoot back to a chaturanga, all with my eyes closed, knowing where my body is, my body awareness.
• 22:40
  SPEAKER_00: And when I can do that in body awareness, that's intuition.
• 22:43
  SPEAKER_00: That's a flex.
• 22:44
  SPEAKER_00: It's a muscle flex for intuition right there.
• 22:47
  SPEAKER_00: That's it.
• 22:48
  SPEAKER_00: That's the how.
• 22:49
  SPEAKER_00: That's the how.
• 22:51
  SPEAKER_00: And once you start building that by doing the how, you can move through life fully aligned, embodied.
• 23:01
  SPEAKER_00: And that's that's the secret to the sauce, y'all.
• 23:04
  SPEAKER_00: That's the secret to the sauce.
• 23:06
  SPEAKER_00: Flex that intuition muscle as much as possible by doing the how.
• 23:11
  SPEAKER_00: Just gave you like so many um things that I do.
• 23:15
  SPEAKER_00: And then it just like becomes a secondhand, secondhand nature, right?
• 23:21
  SPEAKER_00: Then you start being able to tell stories and having a podcast.
• 23:25
  SPEAKER_00: Who knows what else will happen?
• 23:26
  SPEAKER_00: Who who also cares?
• 23:28
  SPEAKER_00: It's it's your it's your life.
• 23:30
  SPEAKER_00: Don't listen to me.
• 23:32
  SPEAKER_00: Take it and run with it.
• 23:34
  SPEAKER_00: Do what it is that you want to do, right?
• 23:35
  SPEAKER_00: And you'll figure it out because your intuition is dying to tell you about yourself.
• 23:42
  SPEAKER_00: It's dying for you to just trust and act.
• 23:46
  SPEAKER_00: It's dying for the creative expression.
• 23:48
  SPEAKER_00: It's dying for you to do some journaling, connecting to nature, perhaps using some crystals in a daily meditation practice.
• 23:55
  SPEAKER_00: And it's also like, how about you just ask for guidance?
• 23:58
  SPEAKER_00: You know, like these podcasts, they are a way to ask for guidance.
• 24:04
  SPEAKER_00: That's what this is.
• 24:06
  SPEAKER_00: It's a guidance.
• 24:08
  SPEAKER_00: It's not like strict rules, do this, don't do that.
• 24:12
  SPEAKER_00: No.
• 24:13
  SPEAKER_00: It's just another way to get you through your life so that you can have the life that you were meant to, your soul's desire.
• 24:23
  SPEAKER_00: And we all have one, every single one of us, and we're all having a different experience.
• 24:31
  SPEAKER_00: And we all have a different soul desire.
• 24:34
  SPEAKER_00: But to find that is tapping that love muscle of intuition.
• 24:41
  SPEAKER_00: Finding that is setting aside everything else and all of the BS that you had to listen to and made small by growing up to however many days old you are right now, and really trying to decide, or not trying to decide, but decipher with discernment what was truly yours, and then why can't you just let go?
• 25:06
  SPEAKER_00: You know?
• 25:07
  SPEAKER_00: And let me tell you something, something fun.
• 25:10
  SPEAKER_00: I'm not a hairdresser and I'm not a lawyer.
• 25:14
  SPEAKER_00: I'm a project executive, turned podcaster, turned spiritual awareness, turned yogi teacher and yogi practition practitioner.
• 25:27
  SPEAKER_00: I'm a lot of things.
• 25:30
  SPEAKER_00: But most importantly, I am a divine soul here on this earth living in my highest power.
• 25:44
  SPEAKER_00: That's it.
• 25:45
  SPEAKER_00: That's my Nimoro Uno.
• 25:47
  SPEAKER_00: That's what I am.
• 25:49
  SPEAKER_00: So take it or leave it, friends.
• 25:52
  SPEAKER_00: Take it or leave it.
• 25:55
  SPEAKER_00: But as Jonas Sok says, intuition will tell the thinking mind where to look next.
• 26:03
  SPEAKER_00: So may you find exactly what you're searching for by using the tools and the how.
• 26:11
  SPEAKER_00: And may all of this help you grow on your journey through this life.
• 26:17
