Episode Details

There is a quiet betrayal no one warns you about, betraying yourself. The moments you knew, and said yes anyway. Over time they surface as exhaustion, confusion, and lost direction.

Author and intuitive guide Catherine Crestani shares how she rebuilt trust in her inner knowing, why intuition is a muscle anyone can train, and how listening to your heart first changes everything.

About the Guest:

Catherine Crestani is an Australian author and spiritual guide who hosts the Willow Healing Matters podcast. A former speech-language pathologist, she now helps people reconnect with their intuition and inner authority.

Key Takeaways:

• Intuition isn't mystical or rare; we haven't lost it, just forgotten how to listen
• Check heart first, then gut, then mind, the order most of us have backwards
• Rebuild intuition like a muscle with small daily yes or no questions
• Courage is learned; small aligned risks compound into a different life
• Suppressed emotions often resurface as tension or illness in the body
• If you can't trust yourself on small choices, the big ones feel impossible
