Listening to your intuition doesn’t always come naturally. In fact, it can feel foreign, even uncomfortable—especially when the noise of the world drowns out the quiet knowing that lives inside you.

For a long time, I didn’t know how to slow down enough to hear it. Life was a blur of to-do lists, responsibilities, and external expectations. I was moving fast, often on autopilot, convincing myself that productivity meant progress. But in those rare moments when life forced me to pause—when everything felt uncertain or something inside me whispered, “this isn’t it”—I began to notice a quiet voice I hadn’t heard before. That was my intuition.

And truthfully? It hasn’t always been easy to trust it.

Sometimes, intuition doesn’t come with clarity. It comes with questions. It asks you to sit with discomfort, to challenge the stories you’ve been telling yourself. It may not offer a perfect roadmap, but it will always nudge you toward alignment. Listening to it takes courage—and it often requires sacrifice. Letting go of what no longer fits. Risking the comfort of the familiar. Choosing a path that others might not understand.

But every time I’ve listened—really listened—I’ve moved closer to a life that feels like mine.

So if you’re struggling to hear your intuition, you’re not alone. Start by creating stillness in small ways. Journal. Breathe. Reflect. Ask yourself what you truly need—not what the world expects of you. That voice inside? It may be quiet, but it’s wise. And it’s yours.
