Do you ever doubt your gut feeling? I do All. The. Time. It's like I believe that logic / science / brainpower are always right, and my heart is always wrong. 

We trust the more traditional senses, despite knowing we don't all see exactly the same colour for "red", or not all feeling the same level of pain from a papercut (ouch!). 

Our ancestors used intuition to save themselves from danger - indeed, most animals still do.

In today's episode, I discuss why not every outcome is statistically predictable (even SCIENCE gets it wrong sometimes!) - and sometimes we just need to trust our heart. 

I also talk about the TOP THREE reasons why I think we don't trust ourselves. These are FIRE, and just knowing them can improve our ability to see situations where we could rely more on our intuition.
