#2: The Noetic Feminist’s Guide to Intuition: Stop Outsourcing Your Knowing
Manage episode 512703210 series 3665241
This 1st Intuition episode dives into a revolutionary idea: your so-called "feelings" are not melodrama—they're high-level, somatic data. We explore how the modern performance culture, often rooted in patriarchal norms, pushes us to outsource our internal knowing to spreadsheets, policies, and confident external authorities. Using a blend of cognitive science and feminist analysis, we reclaim intuition as Feminist Practice—a calm, impeccably practical form of internal governance informed by lived experience and evidence. Through personal anecdotes (including a spectacular "dream" collaboration that went sideways), we show how ignoring the subtle cues from your nervous system results in a tax on your energy and self-respect. Learn to identify the difference between true discernment and biases like fear or flattery, and discover why treating your gut feeling as a scientific hypothesis is the key to stepping out of chaos and into self-command. This is about making decisions not from stress, but from integrity.
