Podcasts about trusting your gut

If you've ever been in a relationship with emotional immaturity or narcissistic behavior, you know the truth: Healing doesn't come with a map. Emotional safety doesn't come with instructions. And waking up is rarely a straight line. In this 10th “Death by 1,000 Cuts” episode, Tony introduces The Ten Emotional Commandments — the patterns, boundaries, and insights that so many people wish they had years earlier. These commandments aren't rules you obey; they're survival skills you learn. They're the shifts that help you understand your emotions, trust your gut, stop overexplaining, and finally step out of the chaos you didn't choose. This episode is validating, grounding, sometimes funny, sometimes painful — and deeply relatable. With listener-submitted “cuts,” real-world examples, and a gentle breakdown of what healing actually looks like, Tony helps you recognize the patterns AND understand how to break them. If you've felt alone in your confusion, in your exhaustion, or in the emotional whiplash of trying to make sense of someone else's immaturity — this episode is for you. 00:00 Introduction and Series Overview 00:37 The Power of Your Stories 01:20 A Survivor's Poem 04:42 The 10 Emotional Commandments 08:54 Commandment 1: Raise Your Emotional Baseline 15:59 Commandment 2: Get Your PhD in Gaslighting 21:53 Commandment 3: Drop the Rope of Emotional Tug of War 27:33 Commandment 4: Set Boundaries and Mean Them 32:17 Stop Searching for the Perfect Words 33:01 Examples of False Promises and Manipulation 33:52 Understanding Emotional Immaturity 36:41 Limiting Your Attack Surface 40:13 Recognizing Projection 44:45 Honoring Your Inner Dialogue 48:37 Trusting Your Gut and Emotions 53:07 Change is Not Linear 57:51 Final Thoughts and Resources Women navigating emotionally immature relationships: come join Tony's private women's Facebook group.

In this electric episode, I sit down with the unfiltered powerhouse that is Jasmine Metson Wilkes, who once built a thriving video marketing agency in her 20s… and then burned it to the ground. Why? Because success built inside a toxic system isn't success at all. What follows is a jaw-dropping story of rebirth: From job seekers' benefits to directing documentaries for CBeebies, to now mentoring women in the creative space to build unapologetically audacious businesses that actually feel good. This isn't just a “pivot” story. This is a burn-the-blueprint-and-build-your-own-universe kind of story.

In this Plain Talk episode, Jim Tew reflects on one of beekeeping's most underrated tools—instinct. Beekeepers make hundreds of small decisions in the apiary, many of them guided by experience and that unspoken “gut feeling.” But how do you know when to trust it? Jim shares a story from helping his grandson's neglected hive in Michigan that appeared doomed by American foulbrood. Everything looked and smelled like the dreaded disease, and his first instinct was to destroy the colony. But something didn't feel quite right. After careful thought—and some hesitation—Jim trusted his gut and waited. It turned out not to be foulbrood after all, saving thousands of bees from destruction. The episode moves through other examples of gut-driven choices: whether to replace a failing queen, when to combine colonies, or how to interpret subtle signs in the hive. Jim admits that intuition doesn't always get it right—sometimes it's “about fifty-fifty”—but it's still an indispensable part of good beekeeping. Through humor, humility, and decades of experience, Jim reminds us that while science, records, and data are vital, listening to your gut can sometimes make the difference between a good decision and a painful mistake. ______________________ Thanks to Betterbee for sponsoring today's episode.

In this episode, Josh and Bob dive into the uncomfortable but powerful role of intuition in leadership. Data-driven decision-making has become the default, but what happens when the data runs out—or worse, when it misleads you? Both share personal stories of times they ignored their gut and paid the price, and times when trusting that inner signal made all the difference.This isn't about rejecting data. It's about recognizing intuition as another form of input—one that leaders often suppress out of fear it won't “sound logical.” Josh and Bob challenge listeners to remember times they silenced their inner voice, reflect on the outcomes, and start treating gut instincts as signals worth listening to.If you've ever wrestled with the balance between logic and instinct, this episode will push you to rethink how you make decisions.

Be ready, stay grounded, and communicate clearly — no matter what's at stake.Communicating under pressure isn't just a useful skill — it can be the difference between escalation and resolution. For Chris Voss, former FBI hostage negotiator and CEO of The Black Swan Group, it's a daily discipline built on empathy, self-regulation, and intentional listening. In this expanded conversation from our Spontaneous Speaking miniseries, Voss offers a rare window into the mindset and methods that helped him show up calm, focused, and adaptable when the pressure is sky-high.“Emotional intelligence is an insane accelerator to outcomes,” Voss shares, explaining how empathy, tone, and timing can shift the direction of any conversation. He breaks down techniques like labeling and mirroring, explores how to use silence and word choice strategically, and explains why overthinking can be just as risky as acting too fast. From gut-level pattern recognition to tactical use of voice, Voss shows how communication becomes more impactful when we're not trying to control — but to connect.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Voss and host Matt Abrahams dive into how negotiation techniques developed for life-or-death situations can be applied far beyond them — offering powerful takeaways for anyone who needs to think clearly under pressure, stay agile in the moment, and communicate effectively when it matters most.Episode Reference Links:Chris Voss Chris's Book: Never Split the Difference Ep.197 Prep or Perish: Mastering In-the-Moment Communication (1 of 3)Ep.198 Pause and Effect: Mastering In-the-Moment Communication (2 of 3)Ep.199 Blunder Pressure: Mastering In-the-Moment Communication (3 of 3)Ep.203 No Script, No Problem: Final Secrets to Speaking Under Pressure (Bonus)   Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:50) - Path to Hostage Negotiation (03:42) - Power of Emotional Intelligence (05:00) - Staying Calm Under Pressure (06:10) - Mental Prep & Mindset (07:18) - Trusting Your Gut (07:58) - Avoiding Overthinking (09:01) - Flexibility in Negotiations (10:15) - Listen More, Talk Less (10:31) - Labeling & Mirroring (12:51) - Tone Shapes Impact (14:06) - The Final Three Questions (19:37) - Conclusion  *****Thank you to our sponsors:Strawberry.me.

Mamet released a collection of essays with Penguin Random House in November 2022, titled My First Popsicle: An Anthology of Food and Feelings. Her upcoming collection of essays about the challenge and magic of growing up in show business, titled Does This Make Me Funny?, will be released by Penguin Random House in September of 2025.

A wide-ranging episode featuring Mark Devine and Tony Blauer as we explore the power of intuition—from sensing danger in self-defense to reading subtle social cues in daily life. We then dive into how social media has redefined fame, examining the antics of Elon Musk and Kevin Durant to show how platforms manufacture virality and blur the line between notoriety and influence. Shifting gears, we unpack marketing's obsession with buzz over clarity, using American Eagle's Sydney Sweeney campaign as a case study, and discuss Gen Z's workplace challenges with feedback and fundamentals. We round out with humorous takes on persistent sales tactics and Mark Zuckerberg's martial arts pursuits, blending insight, critique, and a dash of levity.--------- EPISODE CHAPTERS ---------(0:00:01) - Trusting Your Gut and Cold Plunges(0:14:39) - The Impact of Social Media Fame(0:19:24) - Navigating Virality and Workplace Behavior(0:35:36) - Sales Tactics and Martial Arts Critique(0:42:46) - Boxing Training Realities and ChallengesSend us a textFit, Healthy & Happy Podcast Welcome to the Fit, Healthy and Happy Podcast hosted by Josh and Kyle from Colossus...Listen on: Apple Podcasts Spotify

We all have eureka moments, sudden bursts of certainty that seem to come out of nowhere. What if you could summon that feeling on command? Laura Huang, a business school professor, has been studying that question. She's found that for the world's most successful people, intuition isn't an accident. It's a skill. A tool they've sharpened. Today on the show: the practical steps you can take to turn a random hunch into your most reliable guide.

On this episode, I'm talking about the importance of picking the right people for you and your dog. And the importance of trusting your gut.Big Wags Chicago is online at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.bigwagschicago.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

As researchers, we are trained to demand evidence before believing something. We pride ourselves on the phrase, “Show me the data.” And yet, I'm struck by how quickly we discount the human side of knowing—the intuition, tacit knowledge, and “spidey sense” that quietly guides so many of our decisions.In my own life, I've learned that those gut feelings often point to something real. You try something, and it just works. You see a pattern and instinctively know what to do next. But too often, those moments get dismissed as “just anecdotal” or “just the placebo effect.” The irony is that this dismissal can blind us to real phenomena worth understanding.Why does this matter? Because intuition isn't magic—it's experience speaking. Expertise is defined as the ability to recognize patterns from having done something thousands of times, even if you can't fully explain how you know what you know. In those cases, demanding formal evidence before trusting someone's judgment can actually make us ignore valuable knowledge.Of course, there's a danger here. Everyone likes to believe they're an expert. That's why separating genuine expertise from overconfidence is hard. Still, when someone with deep experience says, “This works,” we should pay attention—especially if the claim has persisted across contexts.Another reason we discount intuition is that effects vary. In research, these differences are called moderators—factors that change the size or even the direction of an effect. Something might work brilliantly for one person but barely move the needle for another. Think about marijuana: for some, it's a knockout; for others, it does nothing. Medicine often ignores these nuances, chasing an “average effect” instead of exploring why outcomes differ. This is changing with personalized medicine, which recognizes that context, genetics, and environment shape results.The same principle applies in management and innovation. An approach that's a breakthrough in one setting may flop in another. The fact that it doesn't work everywhere doesn't mean it's useless—it means it's context-dependent. But when we only look for universal effects, we overlook valuable local knowledge.So how do you tell if a feeling is worth trusting? I think it comes down to two things: 1. Depth of experience – Repeated exposure to a problem builds pattern recognition that can't be faked. 2. Deliberate reflection – Paying close attention, experimenting, and adjusting until you see what really matters.Neither guarantees truth, but both increase the odds that your intuition is pointing to something real. The challenge, especially in research, is to notice these patterns before they disappear under layers of skepticism.And yes, we need to weed out the “woo” from reality. There's a lot of junk science and wishful thinking out there. But history is full of ideas that were once dismissed as nonsense—handwashing, for example—that turned out to be correct. Often, the people raising them couldn't prove their case at first. That doesn't mean they were wrong; it means they were ahead of the evidence.So, maybe the next time someone says, “I know it works—I've seen it a hundred times,” we pause before dismissing them. We ask: • How much experience do they have? • Have they paid attention to patterns? • Could the effect be real for some people, even if not for all?Because if we're honest, a lot of what moves the world forward starts with a hunch that doesn't yet have a p-value attached to it.

Overnight success is a myth, but when alignment shows up, it moves fast.   This episode is a reminder that dreams rarely unfold the way we expect them to. Nesha shares how her recent decision to buy a beach condo, a long-held dream quietly sitting on her vision board, came together in a matter of days. On the surface, it looked spontaneous. In reality, it was years in the making.   She talks about the role of timing, the slow build behind what looks like fast progress, and the importance of listening to your gut even when the evidence isn't there yet. What if the thing you've been waiting for is already on its way, but needs you to make space for it? What if your dream looks quiet right now because the roots are still forming?   Through honest stories and smart reflection, Nesha invites you to consider your own timeline. Have you been dismissing a gut instinct because it doesn't feel logical? Are you assuming your dream is too far off when it might be closer than it looks?   This episode is an encouragement to stay open, trust the work you've already done, and be ready to move fast when alignment finally clicks into place.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Introduction 00:55 The Myth of Overnight Success 02:43 Trusting Your Gut 03:06 Sabbatical That Sparked Alignment 06:06 Buying the Dream Beach Condo 08:51 How Dreams Happen Fast 09:36 Final Thoughts and What's Next Connect with Nesha:  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/neshapai/ Website: https://www.neshapai.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/neshapai LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/neshapaicpa Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

When she started her business, Julie McAllister was busy making sugar cookies for events around town — but what really lit her up were hyper-realistic, sculptural cakes.

On today's episode, we're talking about the power of niching down, trusting your gut, and how clear positioning can fuel real growth.

Unshakeable: Redefining Success on Your Own Terms In the pursuit of success, many individuals find themselves chasing external markers—such as wealth, recognition, or status—believing that these achievements will bring them happiness and fulfillment. However, as discussed in the podcast episode, true success, or "elegant success," is fundamentally about creating a life that aligns with your personal values and brings genuine satisfaction. Host Tonya Leigh explores the concept of elegant success—success that is rooted in personal values, alignment, and ease, rather than societal pressures to do more and be more. Tonya shares her reflections on the importance of creating a fulfilling life that feels good on the inside, as well as the challenges many are facing in today's uncertain world. Drawing from her personal experiences, including navigating her own emotional landscape during difficult times, she emphasizes the significance of managing one's nervous system and internal world to cultivate resilience and peace.  Tune in for insights that challenge traditional definitions of success and encourage listeners to redefine what it means to thrive. Talking Points: 00:33 - Rethinking Success 01:15 - Uncertainty and the Nervous System 03:02 - Leading Through Uncertainty 05:44 - Elegant Success: What No One Tells You 07:08 - The Messiness of Success 10:07 - Life and Business Changes 13:10 - Trusting Your Gut 16:21 - Releasing with Grace 18:05 - Feeling Lost Before Clarity 20:15 - Shedding Old Identities 23:04 - The Emptiness of Misaligned Success 25:01 - Reconnecting with Your Essence 26:05 - Navigating Back to Your North Star Quotes: "What if the real flex is creating a life that feels as good on the inside as it looks on the outside?" "Elegant success is creating the life you desire without abandoning yourself in the process." "I've encountered so much peace by just accepting that it's going to feel elegant and then it's going to feel messy again." "You cannot evolve and expect everyone to come with you." "The doubt that you may be feeling, well, it's not failure, it's just feedback." "I started to trade my truth for someone else's checklist, and I was shaping my life around approval instead of alignment."
