EXPANDED Podcast by To Be Magnetic™ – Ep. 393 – Why You Feel Disconnected From Your Intuition (And How to Reclaim It) with Taylor Paige
Release Date: February 6, 2026
Host: Jessica Gill (with appearances by Lacy Phillips)
Guest: Taylor Paige (Medium, Angel Intuitive, Founder of Angels & Amethyst)

Episode Overview

This episode delves deep into the reasons so many people feel disconnected from their intuition—and illuminates practical pathways to reclaiming it. Jessica is joined by intuitive medium Taylor Paige to unpack the science, energetics, and humanity behind intuitive gifts. Together, they explore how nervous system regulation, self-trust, and grounded spiritual practice allow intuitive channels to open, and why both societal conditioning and trauma can muffle your innate guidance system. Taylor brings a compassionate, evidence-based perspective—showing why everyone is intuitive, how intuition relates to present-moment awareness, and what actionable steps you can take to foster your unique psychic senses.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. The Collective Awakening of Intuitive Gifts

• Timestamp: 06:03 — 07:41
  • Jessica and Taylor note a collective surge in intuitive awakenings, even among the previously skeptical. Taylor explains this as the “natural evolution” of healing—especially for TBMers practicing inner child healing and shadow work.
  • Intuition is validated as a “biological function of the nervous system”: as you heal and regulate, you naturally become more available to spiritual guidance.

Quote:
"The more we can just be in the present moment feeling the love of spirit and sitting in that open container without judging or needing proof, that is when we open up to the most magic." – Taylor Paige (00:00)

• Intuitive connection is not a rare mystical event, but our birthright, intrinsically tied to regulating our bodies and minds.

2. Intuition as the Sum of Self-Trust & the Role of “Chaos”

• Timestamp: 08:58 — 10:59
  • Intuition is “the sum of all the times we’ve trusted ourselves,” Taylor says—contrasting the higher-self voice (intuition) with the wounded or “inner villain” voice (fear).
  • Many block intuition because it wasn’t safe in childhood, or have learned to distrust it via social conditioning.
  • Jessica and Taylor discuss the spectrum from giving away power to “gurus,” to denying spirituality altogether—both are protectors against the vulnerability of true connection.

Quote:
"So many people are like, I'm not intuitive. And to me the energy underneath that is a protector... the best way to approach this work is playful curiosity." – Taylor Paige (08:58)

3. Clearing the Cobwebs: Silence, Spaciousness, and Intuitive Flow

• Timestamp: 12:20 — 16:01
  • The nervous system and intuition are intimately linked. If constantly overstimulated, the intuitive voice gets drowned out by “mental chatter.”
  • Taylor’s formula: Time + Silence + Spaciousness = Intuitive Connection
  • Before you access intuition, you must “clear the cobwebs”—the flood of thoughts, anxieties, and to-do lists that surface whenever you slow down.

Quote:
"Silence is for the soul what food is to the body." – (Taylor quoting her teacher, Eileen Davies) (12:20)

• Letting yourself move through the initial discomfort in silence is essential—eventually, intuition emerges from the deeper peace beyond.

4. Technology, Stillness & Protecting Your Energy

• Timestamp: 16:01 — 17:53
  • Jessica discusses tools like BRICK (an app-blocking tool) to reclaim silence and process the “cobwebs.”
  • Modern life constantly pulls attention away—so actively creating stillness is more crucial than ever.

Quote:
"Can we notice that compulsion to grab something to fill the stillness, to fill the silence?" – Jessica (17:09)

5. Letting Go of Control: Intuition and Surrender

• Timestamp: 17:57 — 20:50
  • A major block to intuition is the egoic need for control—expecting spirit/guidance to show up in specific ways.
  • Taylor urges sitting in an “open container” without judgment or the demand for proof.

Quote:
"We cannot control how spirit shows up… But the more we can just be in the present moment…without judging or needing proof, that is when we open up to the most magic." – Taylor Paige (17:57)

6. Empowerment, Responsibility, and Spiritual Authority

• Timestamp: 21:10 — 27:59
  • A recurring theme: Reclaiming spiritual power requires taking personal responsibility and recognizing where power has been outsourced (to others, or to “higher” powers).
  • Taylor sees the idea of human spiritual weakness as “the greatest lie in human history.”
  • Collective healing means awakening to the part of us that is God consciousness, and acting as responsible stewards in the world.

Quote:
"The greatest lie in human history is that we are not powerful or spiritually powerful." – Taylor Paige (22:05, also repeated at 00:00)

7. Pull Energy vs. Push Energy and Navigating Your True Path

• Timestamp: 31:19 — 35:12
  • Jessica discusses the felt difference between “pull” (soul alignment, intuition) and “push” (force, ego) energy.
  • Taylor recommends “deep heart listening” and warns that aligning with your intuition often triggers discomfort, resistance, or grief—as you let go of past patterns.

Quote:
"Sometimes making the new choice in alignment with power and love, like, feels like dying. Sometimes it's so uncomfortable because a version of us is dying and we are being reborn." – Taylor Paige (35:12)

8. Grief, Sensitivity, and Emotional Process

• Timestamp: 35:50 — 41:23
  • As sensitivity to spirit increases, so does sensitivity to grief and big emotions.
  • Taylor explains grief as “love that doesn’t know where else to go”—and that allowing all feelings is essential for spiritual growth.

Quote:
"When the personality or the mind grieves what it has lost, the soul rejoices in what it's found." – Taylor Paige (paraphrasing a Sufi quote) (36:41)

9. Spiritual Practices: Sitting in the Power & Angel Therapy

• Timestamp: 41:23 — 45:02
  • Taylor shares the practice of “sitting in the power” or, as she reframes it, “sitting in the love of spirit:” Opening to the felt sense of spiritual love rather than emptying the mind, and noticing blocks as messengers.
  • If emotionally dysregulated, she uses “angel therapy”—asking directly, What is my lesson in this? and What would you have me know right now?

10. The Four Clairs & How Gifts Present

• Timestamp: 48:25 — 54:56
  • Most people awaken first as empaths (clairsentience, or psychic feeling) or through “knowing” (claircognizance), not through visions or words.
  • The feeling is the key marker of true intuitive information—distinct from imagination.
  • Allow flow states and suspend the inner critic in sacred space—intuition is always present, regulating, and solution-oriented.

Quote:
"Feeling to me is the most important psychic sense, because all intuitive information comes with a feeling." – Taylor Paige (48:42)

11. What Do I Do With Messages? Ethics and Discernment

• Timestamp: 51:51 — 55:32
  • When intuitive pings happen about others, use them as a prompt for connection or service—not validation.
  • Most people will use their intuition to enrich daily life, not to become professional intuitives.
  • Your intuition enhances whatever path you’re already on.

12. Manifestation, Intuition, and Staying Heart-Centered

• Timestamp: 56:22 — 59:55
  • True manifestation work starts with heart connection, not with surface-level desires.
  • Life feeling stagnant is a clear sign you’re not following your heart, but living from the mind’s plan.

Quote:
"When you get to a place where life isn't feeling good anymore, that is the surefire sign that you're not following your heart or listening to your heart." – Taylor Paige (57:38)

13. Astrological Energies for 2026: Integration, Feeling & Emotional Evolution

• Timestamp: 61:13 — 67:44
  • Taylor explains Neptune and Saturn’s conjunction (2025–2026) as a huge signature for integrating polarity (spirit/structure, feeling/discipline) on both personal and collective levels.
  • 2026 features Mercury retrogrades in water signs—an invitation to revisit and deepen our emotional, intuitive experience.

Quote:
"How can we go back and review and assess and look at our relationship to emotion, intuition, depth, and letting ourselves feel our feelings so that we can crack open to deeper compassion." – Taylor Paige (61:34)

Taylor Paige’s Practical Tips & Resources

1. Silence & Spaciousness: Carve out undistracted time, sit in silence, and observe what arises without attachment or judgment.
2. Journaling: Use stream-of-consciousness writing to connect with intuition (“channel is open, tell me what I need to know”).
3. Body-Based Practices: Include movement (like walking) or hand-on-heart meditations to ground into your intuitive senses.
4. “Sitting in the Power” Spiritualist Meditation: Focus not on emptying your mind, but on opening to feel the love of spirit.
5. Playful Curiosity: Release pressure for intuition to look a certain way; approach with open, childlike wonder.
6. Angel Therapy: When emotional or mentally scattered, use spiritual guides to ask for clarity or lessons directly.
7. Distinguish Mind/Imagination from Intuition: Intuitive hits will be present, regulating, and “surprisingly” resonant—they’re never anxious or fearful in their arrival.
