Have you ever felt that deep, unshakable nudge in your gut telling you to do something—when every logical part of your brain was screaming the opposite?

I have. And recently, it led me to one of the most magical experiences I’ve had this year.

Let me take you behind the scenes of a moment that tested everything I believe about intuition.

The Event That Should’ve Been Canceled

I was organizing an in-person event for a local group. We had a beautiful venue booked, a dynamic guest speaker lined up, and a team of people brainstorming ideas to make it all come together. We poured energy into creating something special: we set up a promotional group online, posted on social media, even reached out to people one-on-one.

But with just one week to go, only three people had signed up.

Panic started to creep in. Everyone began to wonder: Should we cancel? Should we cut our losses?

Logic said: Absolutely.But something inside me said: Keep going.

The War Between Logic and Intuition

I decided to get quiet and check in with that inner voice. I asked for a sign. Something—anything—to confirm I wasn’t just being naive.

And the universe answered.

Driving back from a conference that Sunday, still unsure what to do, a car pulled in front of me with a license plate that read:

GEM25.

Sounds random, right? Except… we had literally decided earlier that week to call the volunteer assisting our speaker the GEM—Guest Experience Manager.

And 25? That was the exact number I kept envisioning in my mind as a goal. I couldn’t explain it. I just knew what it meant.

Following the Nudge

After that sign, I stopped doubting. We pushed hard for two more days. We made new videos, posted again, DM’d people personally. By Monday, we had seven signups. Still not a full room, but I didn’t flinch.

Because intuition had already given me the green light.

By Wednesday—the day of the event—we had 37 people registered.

THIRTY. SEVEN.

The Power of Listening Inward

That night, not only did we have a packed room, but the energy in the space was magnetic. People stayed long after the event ended, networking, collaborating, and thanking us for bringing something so refreshing and energizing to their lives.

And I kept thinking:

What if I had canceled?What if I had let fear win?What if I had ignored that still, small voice?

So I’m sharing this not to say I have it all figured out, but to remind you—and myself—that our intuition is a superpower. It doesn’t always shout. Often, it whispers. And when it does, it’s up to us to clear out the noise and listen.

Because while logic is based on what we’ve already seen, intuition is guided by what’s possible.

If you’ve ever wanted to go deeper into this work with me, now’s the time.

Let This Be Your Reminder

You have that voice too. You know the one.The voice that nudges you to reach out.To say yes to the scary thing.To hold back when something doesn’t feel right.To pivot when you’re heading down the wrong path.

That voice wants to lead you—not just to safety, but to expansion.

The more you quiet the chaos of your itty bitty shitty committee, the clearer that voice becomes. And the more often you follow it, the more you’ll see the magic unfold.

✨ Don’t wait for perfect timing.✨ Don’t wait for everything to make sense.✨ Don’t wait for permission.

Listen.Trust.Take the leap.

And when you do—come back and tell me what happens. Because I promise you, it’ll be something you can’t make up.
