Have you ever had that gut feeling, the one that tugs at your chest and whispers “this is it”—only to ignore it, talk yourself out of it, or get talked out of it by someone else? And then months later, you realize… it was right all along?
If you’re nodding right now, I want you to know: you’re not broken. You’re not indecisive. You’re not bad at trusting yourself, you were just never taught how to hear, read, and honor your intuition.
That’s why I invited Sheetal Story on the podcast. Sheetal is a Psychic Medium, Astrologer, Spiritual Grief Support Counselor, and someone who blends soul-level work with business-savvy wisdom in a way I’ve never experienced before.
She’s helped me through some of the hardest identity transitions in my business, and our conversation is one that I hope feels like a warm, clarifying invitation back to yourself.
We’re unpacking the messy middle of transition, how grief plays into reinvention, and why your intuition has never been wrong, it’s just been silenced.
What Intuition Really Is (And Why You Might Be Disconnected From It)
From childhood, we’re conditioned to prioritize connection over authenticity. We learn to seek approval, suppress our knowing, and outsource our decision-making. But intuition isn’t something you have to earn, it’s your birthright.
Sheetal shares how so many entrepreneurs end up deeply disconnected from their intuition because they’ve been rewarded for hustle, performance, and doing things “right.” Intuition doesn’t operate like that. It speaks in nudges, not blueprints. It doesn’t always make sense to your logical mind, which is exactly why we doubt it.
To truly come home to ourselves, we need to start reversing the order of our internal guidance system: Spirit first, then body, then mind.
The 3 Centers of Wisdom (And Why Entrepreneurs Need to Reorder Them)
Sheetal teaches about the three intelligences available to us: the mind (which seeks safety through the past), the body (which speaks through sensations and gut responses), and the spirit (which is the animating force of intuition).
Most entrepreneurs lead with their mind, trying to logic their way into expansion, but intuition can’t live in a spreadsheet!
She walks through how reconnecting with your body and spirit can help you actually feel what’s right rather than constantly second-guess it. And if you’ve experienced trauma or burnout, the path back to intuition might start with healing the body first.
Timing, Trust, and the Art of Reading the Cues
One of the most powerful lessons Sheetal shared is this: intuition isn’t just about hearing a “yes” or “no”—it’s about recognizing divine timing and learning how to read the cues.
Sometimes we jump too soon, fueled by desire or impatience, and then wonder why it didn’t work out. But aligned action flows. When something is truly right, things will unfold with ease and confirmation.
If you’ve ever forced a launch, a pivot, or a big life change before the signs said “go,” this part of the episode will help you see those moments with more compassion, and a clearer framework for next time.
How Grief Plays a Role in Your Transformation
Every transition—whether it’s leaving a job, ending a friendship, shifting your business model, or letting go of a dream—comes with grief. And Sheetal reminded me (and all of us) that grief is part of the process of becoming. It strips away what’s no longer aligned so the gold underneath (the truest version of you) can emerge.
We talked about how grief can feel confusing when you’re not grieving a person but a past identity, a version of success, or a path you no longer want to walk. But when you allow yourself to process what’s dying, you create space for what’s next.
The Difference Between Pushing and Pivoting
If you’re asking, “Should I push through or pivot?”, this episode will help. Sheetal and I explored the energetic difference between forcing something and surrendering to a new direction.
A push is usually mind-led and rooted in fear. A pivot? That’s spirit-led. It might feel scary, but it will also feel expansive.
We even laughed about how I once thought I was heading into a retreat to learn new business strategies, and came out learning how to be different instead. (Spoiler: It had way more to do with dance and embodiment than bullet points on a whiteboard!)
How to Rebuild Self-Trust After Getting It “Wrong”
Been burned by your own choices? Feel like you misread a situation? Sheetal says: you didn’t fail—you misunderstood the timing or the lesson. She offers a reframe that will leave you feeling less like a failure and more like a student of your own unfolding.
We talked about building a “Book of Evidence” where you track moments when your intuition guided you well (and when you ignored it). Over time, this practice will help you rebuild trust with yourself and make future decisions with more ease.
You’re Not Crazy, You’re Evolving
If you’ve ever felt like nothing feels right anymore, or if your old passions don’t light you up like they used to, you might just be in a 12th house year. (Don’t worry, Sheetal explains what that means!)
But in plain language: you’re not losing your spark, you’re shedding the mud so the gold underneath can finally shine through. It’s uncomfortable, yes, but also necessary. This episode will remind you that you’re not crazy. You’re becoming.
Final Thoughts
This conversation felt like soul therapy: an unfiltered look at what it means to trust yourself again after seasons of doubt, change, and transition.
Sheetal’s wisdom is the kind that hits your heart and your strategy. And her reminder that “intuition is the tool of your soul” is one I’ll carry with me forever.
If you’re standing at a crossroads or feel like your knowing has been drowned out by all the noise, come back to this conversation anytime. Your intuition isn’t gone. It’s just waiting for you to listen.
