Intuition stays within our bodies. However, the choice to listen to it usually remains inside us because of the fear of going outside of our comfort zone. Ignoring our intuition has problems such as remaining in the same place and the feeling of becoming stuck. It is a viable option to stay with what makes us comfortable, but it does not provide the internal need to grow as human beings. Growth is important because it helps us evolve as people both personally and professionally.
