You know that moment when something ends with someone who mattered to you — and it ends in a way that never felt complete? Maybe there wasn’t a real conversation. Maybe they pulled back. Maybe something shifted without warning. And even though the relationship is over, there’s a part of you that still circles the same unanswered piece.

You’re not replaying it because you want to. You’re replaying it because it feels unresolved inside your system. And every time your mind goes back to it, ther…

You've probably worked with coaches who tell long, emotional stories to illustrate every point.

And sometimes it feels helpful — because it's relatable, it's familiar. You can see yourself in it.

But here's what I do differently.

When I use a story, it's short. It's precise. It's only there to help you recognize the pattern you're in right now — not to explain where it came from, or why it makes sense, or what happened in your past.

You already know your story. You've told it. You've lived…

I got a message from someone who said: “I’m always the one who steps in at work. I see something slipping, I take responsibility, and then I end up carrying the whole thing.”

You probably know that moment — you notice the project drifting, no one is speaking up, and there’s this quiet thought: “If I don’t handle it… no one will.”

So you do. Not because you want to lead. Not because you’re trying to control anything. But because you care.

And then later, you’re sitting with that mix of exhau…

Picture this: you finish something you’ve been working toward for a while. A project, a goal, even just a long day. And instead of that quiet sense of arrival, there’s this subtle... drift. Almost like your system is still leaning forward, already scanning for the next thing to move toward.

You don’t think of it as pressure. It’s just how life has felt for a long time — movement, momentum, staying in motion.

And if you slow down — even a little — it’s like the energy disappears.

That’s the …

You’ve probably heard the phrase “right person, wrong timing.” And if you’ve lived it, you know it can feel convincing. There’s connection. There’s something real. But staying steady inside that connection is where it gets hard.

Maybe you’re the one who leans in and feels the possibility. Maybe you’re the one who cares, but something tightens when it gets close. Either way — we tend to call that “timing.” But what’s actually happening is much simpler, and much more human. It’s about capacity …

You ever notice how quickly we say “I’m stressed,” like it’s just a fact about who we are? As if the stress tells the whole story. But most of the time, what we’re calling “stress” is just a reaction — something the body and mind are doing in the moment. Not a fixed part of us. Not identity. Just experience.

I want to explore something subtle today. Subtle, but powerful. The difference between:

• What we’re feeling in this moment, and
• The steadier, quieter part of us that’s always there und…

Most people think intuition is a feeling. But if we’ve trained our nervous system to pull away, shut down, or guard — then the “feeling” that shows up first isn’t intuition at all. It’s just the pattern running on autopilot.

Today we’re going to talk about intuition in a way that’s practical. Not mystical. Not abstract. Something you can actually train. Especially if you’ve got a history of withdrawing, building walls, or disappearing emotionally when things get close. Because in that contex…

You ever notice how you can really mean well— like your heart is in the right place— and still, the result doesn’t match what you hoped?

You wanted to show up better. You wanted the workout to happen. You wanted the conversation to be calm. You wanted this time to be different.

And afterward, there's that quiet frustration: “I tried. I truly tried. Why didn’t it land?”

That gap isn’t about effort. It’s not about willpower. It’s not about how much you care. It’s about the emotional state you…

You ever notice how people say they want to make a change in their work—maybe start something new, switch careers, follow what actually lights them up—but somehow, they always end up back where they started?

They tell themselves, “It just wasn’t the right time.”

Or, “Maybe I was meant to do this after all.”

But deep down… they know it’s not their calling anymore.

Let’s talk about what’s really happening underneath that pattern.

Today we’re unpacking a dynamic that keeps a lot of capable p…
