Day 78: the magic mystery of intuition ✨

our guest contributor for the week is..

Dear Ones,

I’m Trish, the gal behind collecting your project submissions to show off on Instagram. I’m a Personal & Small Business Coach, writer and solo mama to two wildly adorable jr. associates. Thank you for having me in your inboxes a few more times during this year’s 100 Days!

This week, our creative theme will center around Intuition. (I’m picturing a bit of magical mist drifting across the screen).  

I was working with a client recently, discussing her personal experience with trust, most especially in relation to trusting herself. As a brilliant academic from the traditional continuing education track, she shared that she’s historically seen intuition as a bit of a “dirty word”. (I’m dusting away the magic mist now).

I offered her this, straight from the heart of my own coach training: 

“Intuition is not a single way of knowing. It is our ability to hold space for uncertainty and our willingness to trust the many ways we’ve developed knowledge and insight, including instinct, experience, faith and reason.” – Coaches Training Institute. 

In essence: it’s a mix of nature & nurture, with an extra splash of trust in the process (including the mystery). 

What does the word intuition bring up for you at this moment? 

What’s your current relationship to trust, most especially in regards to self? 

How does this, if at all, affect your creative work?

In Gratitude,
Trish
