Do you find yourself struggling to follow your intuition, because you are being influenced by external factors? It can feel like you are experiencing an internal/external tug of war between what you know to be true internally, and the persuasive juxtaposing views externally. When this happens, how do you find the courage to listen to your intuition?

If you struggle to cut through the noise, you are not alone. It can be challenging to silence the outside forces vying for our attention. The more you trust yourself and your inner knowing, you can start to follow your instantaneous gut reaction and stand firmly knowing that you know what is right and true for you.


This knowledge will allow you to stay steadfast in following your intuition even when dealing with the internal/external tug of war. Always remember that at the end of the day, you control who wins the metaphorical tug of war, because nobody knows your needs, your body, and your desires like you do- you are strong, powerful, and courageous. Trust yourself and follow your intuition.
