The Power of Patterns: Understanding the Spiral of Intuitive Downloads
In Episode 29 of 'The Download' from Wise Woman and Wordsmith, host Jill Marshall delves into the significance of patterns formed from the intuition in our lives. This episode explores how seemingly random events like gut feelings, dreams and synchronicities may form part of a larger, intelligent pattern guiding us. Jill discusses the phases of recognising, naming and integrating these patterns, whether in creative endeavors or business strategies. Using examples from nature, science, and personal experiences, she encourages listeners to trust their intuition as a form of deeper intelligence. Intuition is not just spiritual but also practical, merging the mystical with the strategic.
