Today I'm hosting this conversation with the wonderful Kate Sinclair. Kate is a human intuition expert, psychic, medium, and intuitive advocate who has been teaching intuition as a practical, embodied skill since 2007.Welcome to the podcast, Kate. It's great to have you with us today.Kate Saint Clair: Thank you. I'm excited to be here.Natalie Tealdi: Can you start by telling us how [00:01:00] you first realized you were intuitive, and what was the moment that made you stop dismissing it?Kate Saint Clair: Yeah, I mean when I was young there was not a word for it, so I didn't know what to call it. I just kind of call it this weird thing and I don't really have a memory of not, when I was a little kid that did, my grandfather had passed away, decades before I was born. And I remember being like four years old at the my grandma's breakfast table and they were talking about him and I was wondering why they weren't talking to him.'Cause I could sense that he was sitting there with us and I just thought why are they ignoring him? So I remember putting those pieces together around four, and when I was a little girl, I'd see a little, I thought they were black cougars, but usually they were just kind of an animal spirit that would come out at night.And of course I just thought it was my imagination. But I mean, I would sprint to my mom and dad's room for fear and it would take me 30 years to realize that was a spirit animal and they would be around me at a certain time when my family was about to [00:02:00] break apart through a divorce. So they kind of appeared at the right time.But as a little kid, I was just absolutely terrified. And, I just kind of always knew stuff about people and I'd kind of say it out loud and then I'd get in trouble for telling secrets. But I, I was like, I didn't have a thought. It just kind of came outta my mouth. So lots of that, like kind of lots of getting or kind of having a bad feeling about somebody as a child.And then maybe lots of we don't wanna judge people or, you shouldn't say that. Or, so there was a lot of what I've just called. I just, that's weird. That's weird. That's weird. And kind of making the, those, putting those pieces together, like why are they ignoring the, my grandfather?Or why are they ignoring, this spirit or that spirit, which I didn't know there was a word for it back then. I just thought they were, Hey, that's a person and that's my grandfather.Natalie Tealdi: Yeah.Kate Saint Clair: It took, when did I realize it? I was much older and it was more of a thing I tried to not do. I tried to not say stuff.I tried to not see stuff, so it was, I was very much in my [00:03:00] twenties before I was like, okay, maybe I could actually get some help for this or see if other people feel this way. And that's when it was probably definitely in my twenties where I was like. This is maybe something I wanna figure out instead of just trying to run away from, or convince myself I'm not seeing or feeling what I amNatalie Tealdi: Yeah, I suppose it must be really in easy to kind of rationalize those thingsKate Saint Clair: imaginary friend, you know, we have terms for this stuff, mother's intuition, get it. And like we have very sad terms. I consider them sad terms, but we're just trying to language. Something we kind of don't understand. And that's why I made it my life's mission to understand it and put proper language to it so we can all see it within us.'cause I didn't feel special. I could see it in other people, it's just mine was kind of off the charts and I didn't know what to do with it other than convince myself I was imagining it and it wasn't happening.Natalie Tealdi: Yeah, I can imagine. It must feel a bit scary as well.Kate Saint Clair: It was scary. Yeah, definitely.Natalie Tealdi: Yeah. And many people say, [00:04:00] I'm not intuitive, but what do you believe is really happening when someone feels disconnected from their intuition?Kate Saint Clair: Oh yeah. I think there's several layers to this, but I think at a minimum, again, the common language, we, until you understand it, we think it's kind of a one-off thing. It's I had a gut feeling. And we don't say that every day, but really you do use your intuition every day.Let's just say if you're in your hometown and nothing changes, you don't really need to use...
