In this conversation, I am joined by Julie Flippin, a retired psychotherapist and author of Divinely Seasoned, whose life has been shaped by profound transitions and inner change.  Julie shares from lived experience what it’s like to carry inner knowing without clear language or validation, and how intuition often seems to surface most clearly during moments that feel unsettling or hard to make sense of. Julie shares the moments that opened her gifts, what changed when grief cracked her world open, and how discernment becomes the real spiritual practice: learning the difference between fear, ego, and true guidance. 🌿 How You’ll Feel by the End Recognize the subtle moments you usually dismiss, even though they quietly shape your choices.
