So often we just see the surface of a situation. But just like the ocean, if we are able to see beneath the surface, we discover a whole new perspective. Intuition is the key to seeing beneath the surface in life, whether it’s about relationships, career, or personal growth.
William was 14 years old. Living a life of poverty in a crime ridden neighborhood, being abused repeatedly at home, William decided to run away for his survival. When the police found him, William chose not to return home but to take up residence at the crisis center/shelter where I was managing.
Like the rest of the kids in the facility, he was at a rough place in his life. When you are 14 years old and would rather go to a crisis center with a bunch of strangers than home to your parents, there’s no way around it – this is a tough thing for any kid to have to face.
In the center, there were girls who had been raped, runaways who had no parents, kids that were there because they acted out in violence at home – all types of situations, none of which were really uplifting. William’s efforts to fit-in or simply get along with the others were interrupted by his urge to antagonize and bully them.
Intuition Is The Key To Seeing Beyond The Surface
One night, for no apparent reason, William was really blowing his top. There were several kids in the common area and I could hear William picking at them. Though there were comments going both ways, William was the one who was showing the most aggression. I walked into the area and looked at William. Was he just your average young man, taking the opportunity to get a fix by belittling everyone around him?
As I looked at him – really looked at him – I saw something very different. I had one intuitive flash after another come into my mind. First there was his father’s broken spirit, then what his brother had done to him, his teacher’s mental abuse and his brutal cousin from Atlanta. The sights were chilling and very sad, but gave me a very different perspective of William. This is the beauty of intuition.
Diffusing conflict in the facility was my job. But as a compassionate intuitive who takes my life purpose seriously, I wanted to do more than just avoid violence on my watch. I wanted to help William. I was able to do this successfully using intuition. With intuition, you can access helpful, sometimes critical information that you would otherwise never know.
Anyway, during this incident, everyone else in the room saw the surface of what was occurring in William, but I saw something much deeper – beyond the way he was behaving. I could see why he was doing this. He was reliving a series of traumatic events. The kids in the room were unknowingly triggering this and William was in survival mode, fighting to keep the walls from closing in on him.
I asked William to come talk to me for a minute. We went into another room. I said something along the lines of "Are you okay? You seem upset about something." Of course he denied anything of the sort. He just sat there with a hard, cold look on his face.
So out of the blue, I asked him if he had a big brother at home (which I had intuitively already seen). He answered, "Yes." So I asked him to tell me about him. He started with some basic details (age, size, etc) but then the brutal details of the mental and physical abuse unfolded. As he continued the affected tough tone left his voice and he shared a very recent violent incident perpetrated by his brother. I was no longer in a battle of wills with a defiant teen.
I was listening to a young man, a human being – trusting me with some hard cold life details that he otherwise would never share. He needed to do this so his healing could begin and a radical change – a walk down a very different life path could take place. At this point in the conversion, my training kicked in even more. I ran William through a type of processing by merely asking him a series of questions.
These weren’t just any questions. I had to know exactly what was going on inside of him to know what questions to ask and how to ask them. These details in people are insights that no psychology degree can give you; and these insights can’t be deduced by someone’s facial expression or body language.
The only way to see profound details and truth about a person is through straight intuitive ability – the ability to tap into a greater spiritual intelligence, a force that we are all connected to.
Intuition Creates Breakthroughs That Are Otherwise Impossible
After sitting with William for 10 minutes, the result was him looking at me with tears running down his face. Yes, there was some pain in those tears, but there was also a lot of transformation. William had an awakening. He gained a better understanding of how he was playing out these roles in his life. He saw what was driving him to be the bully, the one who picks the fights, and the one who always has to fight back. The tears were there but he also had a peaceful glow around him. He looked me right in the eyes.
He didn’t say anything, but in his own way, I could feel he was thanking me. He got up and walked back into the area with the rest of the kids. They saw the tears in his eyes but seemed to accept him back.
William didn’t know that I had spent years of my life along with thousands of dollars on different systems of training to find the method I shared with him. He didn’t know I had studied at a military intelligence project funded by the Air Force to develop awareness and intuitive ability. He didn’t know I worked as a Professional Intuitive when I wasn’t at the center, and that I had an impressive client list of CEOs, Law Enforcement Officers, Celebrities, Government Officials, among others.
In fact, none of that mattered. What mattered is that a friend had shown him a way to deal with an immense pain that he has struggled with for years.
William still had lots of challenges to work through in this life, but for the next couple of months, until he left, I could see a radical change inside. And that change on the inside was reflected by change on the outside – how he treated others, his demeanor, and his attitude about life in general. There was an immense improvement.
What Works Once, Doesn’t Always Work Again
The funny thing about that experience with William is, about 2 weeks later, a girl in the group was emotionally attacking several of the other kids. Once again, I walked in the area where they were. I could see it right away – her behavior was similar to William’s, but the reasons behind it were very different.
As I focused on Charlotte, I receive my usual intuitive download of what was occurring on a deeper core level. So I said, "Hey Charlotte, I got a question for you, come talk to me for just a minute." Charlotte looked at me and with the defiance of a samurai warrior, said "NO." I then asked her why not. Her response – "I saw what you did to William; he had tears in his eyes. I’m not going to let you do that to me!" Then she gave me a little smile to let me know she was just one step ahead of me. I couldn’t help to let out a nice big laugh.
Why Am I Sharing This Story With You?
My experience with William so many years ago, along with other similar experiences, truly inspired me to use intuitive ability as a force to improve my own life and to help others. I set out to create LifeLeap Institute and provide my Intuitive Counseling work which has allowed me to assist thousands and thousands of people through seemingly impossible challenges. I hope that the story will also inspire you, in one way or another.
With William so many years ago, and with my clients who I work with every week of the year, there is just no possible way I could see the things I do without the use of intuition. Whether it’s the visual pictures I see, names I hear, or emotional impressions I receive, the chance of me guessing these types of things over and over for so many years is simply impossible. I’m truly convinced of the benefits of intuition. And, because I get to participate in the transformation within people’s lives, my own life has become so much more rewarding.
The power of intuition is not just that it works. It can be used to see to the deeper core levels of an individual or a situation. For example, so many clients I work with, such as with relationships, get caught up in the surface level of what is occurring. They see the outside behaviors and hear the words of someone they care about, but fail to see what is really occurring deep within that person. I’ve seen this result in many clients being overwhelmed with confusion and hopelessness, especially when the person they care about is giving mixed signals.
But by using intuitive ability, I’m able to see the deeper reasons – why people are behaving the way they are; and it’s often a very different situation than what the person I’m helping is imagining.
I’m able to see the other person’s motivations, what’s driving them, what’s holding them back, etc. And by understanding these deeper reasons, it then becomes clearer what specific steps need to be taken to deal with the situation. This is why the intuitive path to healing is so powerful.
The Intuitive Edge
If I had just "talked" to William without having any insight to his personal, special situation or tried to order him to "be nice or else" what would have happened? Would I have achieved the level of success that intuition allowed me to achieve? Probably not. When you simply "talk" someone, you remain on the outside of the situation. If I hadn’t seen the visions that I did with William, I would not have had a clue as to how to approach or help him.
Without intuition, you are relying on pure guesswork. In the end, this can be limiting. Unlike the reasoning approach used when you just "talk" to someone, intuitive ability is interdependent upon time or space. In other words, someone with proper training and experience can access information intuitively from a great distance, and they can extract information from the past and sometimes the future. This information gathering process, sometimes referred to as remote viewing, is just as accurate at great distances as it is when working with someone in-person.
I demonstrate this everyday to clients with my Intuitive Counseling service.
Not only can I see what I need to see about the client, I can access the information I need about other people who are not even present. Many of my clients over the years have told me I am basically the counselor that "already knows everything."
Not All Methods Of Intuition Are The Same
While it can be appealing, if a professional intuitive or psychic gives you one future prediction after another, how do you really benefit from your time with them? For starters, the future isn’t cut into stone – it can be changed. But more importantly, you become more empowered when you get a deeper understanding of yourself and/or of the people in your life. This helps you to "fill in the blanks" as to why things are they way they are, what made them that way, and what needs to be done to get the outcome that you desire.
The same is true with intuition development courses. Some will have you doing hours of strange rituals with crystals, while some will get right to the point and provide you with a set of tools you can use to develop your own intuition and start using it in your life for practical purposes.
Hopefully, the true story about William has touched you positively. It was literally a life altering experience for me. I encourage you to explore deeper the benefits of using intuition more in your life. Whether you take advantage of my Intuitive Counseling service, get enrolled in our Intuition Development Course, buy some books on the subject at your local bookstore, or find a good professional you can work with in your local area, I encourage you to take a step towards using intuition more in your life. The transformation awaits you!
