Working Intuitively to Transform Your Life
In this blog, Danielle talks about how working intuitively can transform your life. Danielle shares a story about a friend who struggled to find a schedule that suited her after starting self-employment. She felt guilty for not feeling creative or productive during the traditional 9-5 workday and kept pushing herself to work through it. After sharing that Danielle works around her energy, it sparked a conversation that helped her friend understand it's okay to create a schedule that is guilt free and decide to work when she has the energy.
Danielle explains that working intuitively means listening to your body, mind, and emotions. Intuition is the ability to understand something instinctively, without the need for conscious reasoning. When we work intuitively, we can make better decisions, find creative solutions, and navigate challenging situations based on our values and who we are.
Danielle outlines some of the benefits of working intuitively, including greater creativity, innovation, and better decision-making. She shares studies that show how frequent and abrupt context shifting can lead to decreased productivity, increased stress, and cognitive fatigue. Danielle explains that listening to your intuition uses the right side of your brain, which is also the creative artistic side of the brain.
Overall, this episode encourages listeners to work intuitively and work around their energy to avoid burnout and be more productive.

The blog provides insights on why it's important to pause before speaking and carefully consider whether sharing will alter the outcome.
