What is intuition, really—and how can you tell it apart from anxiety, overthinking, or impulse?

In this solo episode of Return on Intuition, Erin peels back the mystery around intuition and brings it into real life. She explores how intuition often speaks softly—not with urgency or fear, but with a quiet consistency that guides us gently toward aligned choices.

Through relatable stories and grounded practices, Erin breaks down the subtle energy of inner knowing and how it differs from the noise of stress, overthinking, or societal pressure. From processing emotions and tuning into the body, to breathwork and letting go of outside judgment, this episode is a powerful roadmap to reconnecting with your deeper self.

You’ll Discover:

  • The key differences between intuition, anxiety, and impulse
  • How intuition speaks through the body—not the brain
  • Simple ways to practice intuitive decision-making every day
  • Breathwork, presence, and somatic tools to quiet the noise
  • Why intuition is essential for leaders, creatives, and changemakers

✨ Perfect for leaders, creatives, and seekers who want to make more aligned, authentic decisions in a noisy, hyper-analytical world.
