Intuition or Old Pattern? How to Decode Your Body’s Signals

Published on: 1st December, 2025

Is your body trying to guide you — or protect you from something that isn’t actually happening anymore? Jennifer breaks down the somatic difference between intuition, intuitive alerts, and old protective patterns. With grounded personal stories and an accessible guided exercise, this episode gives you a practical way to decode your body’s language and build deeper self-trust.

What You’ll Hear:

  • How intuition shows up in two different ways
  • What old patterns feel like in the body
  • A simple framework for decoding internal signals
  • Guided practice: sensing clarity vs chaos
