Trust Your Gut? Why Your Instincts Are Trying To Kill You (Proverbs 14) 🧭☠️

Society loves to tell you: "Just trust your gut." "Follow your heart." "Do what feels right."

In recovery, that is terrible advice.

Proverbs

My "gut" told me to isolate. My "heart" told me I could handle one more time. My "instincts" led me straight into a jail cell. Today on Day 14, we are reading through Proverbs 14 and destroying the myth of intuition.

In this video, we’re breaking down:

✅ The Myth of Intuition: Why the road to death often looks like a shortcut to happiness (v. 12).

✅ Embrace the Mess: Why a clean stable means an empty life (v. 4).

✅ Hotheaded & Handcuffed: Why a quick temper is just a billboard for your own foolishness (v. 29).

If you are ready to stop trusting your feelings and start trusting the Truth, this one is for you.
