EVEN MORE about this episode!

What if a former NASA scientist told you the most powerful tool you’re ignoring is your own intuition?

In this episode, Julie Ryan and Jennifer Rochlis reveal how intuition works, why we override it, and how to start trusting it in your everyday decisions.

Dr. Rochlis shares the life-altering experience that shifted her path—from leading high-level engineering teams at NASA to helping others reconnect with their intuition after a deeply personal health crisis. Together, they break down why high achievers often struggle to trust themselves, how the brain confuses uncertainty with danger, and what it actually takes to move from fear-based reactions into aligned, intuitive decisions.

Blending cutting-edge science with spiritual insight, this conversation reveals how intuition works on a biological and energetic level, why the present moment holds your greatest power, and how tools like Human Design can help you understand your unique decision-making blueprint. Whether you’re navigating change, seeking clarity, or feeling stuck despite external success, this episode will challenge how you think—and help you start trusting what you feel.
