INTUITION MATTERS
Living and Leading with Intuition: Finding Flow in a Fast World
In an age defined by constant noise, logic, and data , intuition can be our quiet advantage. It’s that inner "gut feeling" that cuts through the clutter, guiding us toward better decisions, timing, and flow.
But what is a "gut feeling" really? And how can we learn to both nurture it, train it, trust it?
This experience explores how intuition can become a modern life skill that can serve as a compass for clarity, creativity, and confidence in how we live, lead and create.
In this session you will get the opportunity to explore:
* How to nurture and develop a strong intuition to accompany you in your everyday life and leadership
* Powerful practices that heighten intuition : stillness, movement, nature, and sensory presence
* The art of balancing your intuitive intelligence with analytical skills for wiser choices and effortless flow
* How intuition enhances confidence and clarity in work, relationships, and the way we navigate change in general
A conversation for those who want to live with more presence, trust their inner signals and deep wisdom, and create an anchor of trust in their inner voice in a fast-moving world.
