OM DENNE EPISODE
Okoro Connects with Jennifer Halls, an Intuition Consultant, author, artist, and educator, for a thoughtful conversation about intuition, self-trust, decision-making, stress, uncertainty, and the challenge of listening to yourself in a world full of opinions and expectations.
In this remote episode of The Everyday Health Struggle, Okoro Connects with Jennifer to explore the inner sense that can influence how people make decisions, navigate uncertainty, understand their emotions, and determine what feels right for their lives. With nearly 30 years of experience and more than 25,000 consultations, Jennifer has helped professionals, executives, scientists, artists, clergy, and everyday people develop a more intentional relationship with their intuition.
Jennifer's own journey began with a major decision at 33, when she left her career as a museum curator without a clear roadmap, financial safety net, or established path forward. She describes having a “knowing” that she could no longer ignore — a decision that ultimately led to decades of work exploring intuition and the publication of her book, You Know.®: How to Invite & Nourish a Relationship with Your Intuition.
The conversation examines the difference between intuition, instinct, emotion, anxiety, and fear, while exploring why highly analytical and successful people can sometimes struggle to trust their own internal signals. Okoro Connects with Jennifer about the impact of second-guessing, external validation, uncertainty, and constantly overriding what we sense within ourselves.
The episode also explores the connection between self-trust and everyday wellbeing. Jennifer shares perspectives on how constant indecision and mental noise can contribute to stress, overwhelm, and disconnection, as well as practical ways people can create space to listen to themselves without treating every feeling as a prediction or absolute truth.
Okoro Connects with Jennifer about intuition, creativity, purpose, and the experience of being successful on paper while still feeling disconnected from the life you're living. The conversation considers what it means to recognize when a path no longer fits, rebuild self-trust after difficult decisions, and develop a healthier relationship with your own judgment.
This episode offers a meaningful exploration of an often-overlooked part of everyday health: the relationship we have with ourselves. Because wellbeing isn't only about physical habits. It can also involve how we make decisions, navigate uncertainty, manage stress, and create enough space to hear our own voice.
