Episode 24: You Don’t Have an Intuition Problem—You Have a Trust Problem | Dina Berrin
Have you ever ignored an inner knowing, only to look back later and think, “I knew”?
Perhaps your intuition was present all along. The real difficulty was trusting it.
In this episode of Intuition on Tap, Heidi Jane speaks with intuitive guide, teacher and author Dina Berrin about why so many people seek external confirmation when, at some level, they may already know the answer.
After more than twenty-five years of working with thousands of people at major crossroads, Dina has discovered that many clients are not simply looking for information. They are looking for permission, reassurance or enough certainty to trust what they already sense. But self-trust does not mean assuming that every feeling, bodily reaction or energetic impression is intuition. Fear, anxiety, wishful thinking, nervous system activation and emotional absorption can all feel convincing.
Genuine intuitive development requires you to recognise which internal signal you are responding to.
In this thoughtful and practical conversation, Heidi and Dina explore:
• Why people recognise their intuition more easily in hindsight
• The difference between intuition, fear, anxiety and wishful thinking
• Why intuition is often quiet, subtle and easy to dismiss
• How to strengthen self-trust without waiting for absolute certainty
• Why highly sensitive people and empaths can read others while losing contact with themselves
• How boundaries, emotional overwhelm and people-pleasing affect intuitive clarity
• Why emotional absorption is not automatically intuition
• How tarot and other intuitive tools can encourage reflection without replacing personal responsibility
• The difference between helpful guidance and dependence on external confirmation
Dina also shares her approach to tarot, numerology, astrology, charm casting and palmistry. Rather than using these practices to dictate someone’s future, she sees them as catalysts for reflection - tools that can help people slow down, recognise what is happening beneath the surface and reconnect with themselves.
This conversation offers an important reminder: your intuition may not be something you need to find. It may be something you need to learn to recognise, discern and trust.
