The Filosophy PodcastUnlocking Intuition: The power of personal ritualsWhat happens when overthinking disconnects you from your intuition?
In this episode, Fionna shares a recent aha moment involving a deep-dive into becoming a psychologist (yes, spreadsheets and all 🙈) and how it became the wake-up call she didn’t know she needed.
Through spiritual rituals, kriya yoga, and nervous system regulation, she found her way back to clarity—not by doing more, but by being more present.
✨ This is your reminder that clarity doesn’t come from spreadsheets—it comes from presence.
