Q: In your experience, what is intuition?
Intuition is that place inside that connects us to that which is greater than ourselves. Intuition is that place inside that knows what we need in any given moment. Intuition shows us the difference between what we want and what we need. Intuition is that place inside that guides us, that is our own inner compass. Intuition is our inner coach and mentor, that always steers us in the right direction.

Q: Is following your intuition important to you? Why?
Following my intuition is my priority in life; everything falls into place when I trust. Following my intuition allows me to connect into the Divine order of things. When I trust my intuition I am trusting myself. My intuition guides me to make the right decisions. My intuition knows what I need more anyone else.

Q: What happened the last time you trusted your intuition?
My son was angry and I left him alone instead of tying to fix it and he calmed right down. My client cancelled her coaching session.
