Why Intuition Might Be Your Superpower (And How to Train It) with Elizabeth Greenwood

Is it intuition, or is it anxiety? It can be REAL hard to tell the difference sometimes. 

In today’s episode, we’re unpacking what intuition actually is, how it works in the brain and the body, and how to tell the difference between your inner voice… and your inner chaos.

I’m joined by author Elizabeth Greenwood, whose work has appeared in the New York Times, The New Yorker, GQ and more, and whose new book Everyday Intuition explores what science, psychology and even psychics can teach us about trusting ourselves. 

Together, we explore:

✔️ What intuition actually is (and why you already have it)
✔️ The key difference between intuition and anxiety
✔️ Why your body plays a bigger role in intuition than you think
✔️ How to spot when you’re being an “unreliable narrator”
✔️ The HALT rule (and why it can save you from bad decisions)
✔️ Why intuition works best when you feel safe, not stressed
✔️ How power dynamics shape who becomes more intuitive
✔️ Why you shouldn’t wait for big life decisions to start trusting your gut
✔️ Simple, everyday ways to build your intuition like a muscle
