Can Intuition Help You In Your Business? with guest Anne Presuel

By Kat Sturtz Leave a Comment

I could chat about intuition and tapping and building heart-centered businesses all day with my online biz friend Anne Presuel, who just happens to be an honest-to-goodness, went to seminar school, real ordained minister.

In today’s Fast Action Fridays‘ episode, Anne and I discuss how much we value and rely on tapping into our intuition and trusting the insight it provides. While I don’t remember a time when I wasn’t deeply aware of my own intuition that wasn’t the case for Anne. She wasn’t fully aware of the power of her own intuition until someone else she not only pointed it out to her but how important trusting and following it had been in Anne’s life.

Her advisor at the time explained point blank how Anne’s intuition help Anne save her own and her daughter’s lives. That makes for one powerful intuition awareness moment. For more details about that experience and more be sure to check out Anne’s new 2021 book, A Divinely Intuitive Awakening: How Divine Connection Healed Unspeakable Trauma & Created a Life of Love, Magic and Miracles on Amazon (my affiliate link)

During our interview you’ll also see Anne spontaneously demonstrate how she relied on tapping to help her through the creative process of writing her book. I love how Anne describes how she gets “jiggly” at times. You’ll see it for yourself!
