Here’s what you can expect from this episode:

Let’s be honest — most of us were taught to “make things happen” through hustle, planning, and pushing until it’s done. But when it comes to creating something deeply meaningful — a book, a business, a body of work — that approach can leave us feeling stuck, disconnected, and creatively drained.

Here’s the truth I’ve seen over and over again in my own life and with hundreds of clients:

Creativity doesn’t come from force. It comes from flow.

And that flow? It begins with intuition.

In this episode, I’ll guide you through a softer, more feminine, more soul-led way of creating — one that honors your inner wisdom and the unique essence of the project itself. Whether you’re in the early spark of an idea or about to share your work with the world, this is about partnering with your creativity instead of trying to control it.

Here’s a quick summary of some key concepts explored in this episode include:

Why Intuition and Creativity Are Inseparable

Discover how tuning into your intuition helps you reconnect with your true self — and why your most aligned creative ideas are drawn to you in the first place.

The Four Phases of Intuitive Creation

Using the metaphor of pregnancy and birth, I’ll guide you through the natural cycle every creative project follows — and how to identify which phase you’re in right now:

Conception: Receiving the idea
Gestation: Nurturing it into being
Labor: Bringing it into form
Birth: Releasing it into the world

Learn how to connect with your project as if it’s a living being — and ask it directly what it needs from you to flourish.
