What if intuition is the spark that ignites self-trust in decision-making?
In my latest newsletter, I wrote about how the fire of confidence is self-trust:
➝ Trusting yourself to make the tough call
➝ Trusting yourself to recover when things don’t go as planned
➝ Trusting yourself to keep your promises
But here’s a reality: in moments of uncertainty, we rarely have all the data or unlimited time.
So—how do leaders decide?
Intuition.
It’s often misunderstood as something “mystical.” And, we are socialized to ignore it in favor of hard data.
In truth, intuition is wisdom in motion—your experiences, pattern recognition, and resilience working faster than your brain can rationalize.
This is how leaders (and executives you admire) often make critical calls.
And the best part? Intuition isn’t reserved for them—it’s available to all of us.
The more you trust yourself, the more you can hear it.
Sometimes that looks like:
Taking the walk
Applying for the job
Signing up for the class
Starting the book
Taking the risk
What wisdom might you tap into if you leaned more into your intuition?
