How do you know when it’s intuition… and when it’s fear?

If you’re navigating a big life decision, a career change, business pivot, move, relationship shift, or income expansion, this episode will help you reconnect with the one faculty most people ignore when it matters most: your inner knowing.

In a world saturated with expert advice, market trends, strategy frameworks, and “best practices,” it’s easy to outsource your authority. Yet the most aligned decisions, the ones that lead to breakthrough income months, unexpected opportunities, and life-changing pivots, often begin with a quiet internal nudge.

In this episode, we explore:

• How to tell the difference between intuition and fear
• The role intuition plays in wealth expansion and business growth
• How self-trust shapes career reinvention and identity evolution
• Real-life examples of intuitive decision-making that led to powerful outcomes

You’ll learn why intuition is not “woo,” but a higher mental faculty that can be strengthened and provide clear internal guidance.

Whether you’re building a soul-led business, expanding your income, reinventing your life after 40, or stepping into a new season of leadership, this episode will help you strengthen the one powerful skill that usually gets overlooked: listening to yourself.

Because aligned success begins with deeper self-trust.

Somewhere along the path to becoming capable adults, many of us forget how good it feels to simply have fun. Maybe not consciously, but we can become so busy building sensible routines, and doing what feels practical that play often gets pushed aside. Over time, even meaningful work can begin to feel heavier than it once did, and the spark that made creation exciting softens into something more mechanical.

In this episode, Kathy explores why play tends to fade as responsibility increases, and how seriousness subtly reshapes the way we approach business and money. We look at why intuitive nudges often open doors logic alone cannot see, and how lightness can reintroduce momentum where effort has stalled.

This conversation is for anyone building something of their own, whether that is a business, a new chapter, or a different relationship with abundance. If your goals feel structured yet slightly flat, this episode invites you to reconsider what actually inspires you and fuel your expansion.

Abundance expands in environments where imagination, engagement, and willingness are present. When creation feels like play again, magic often follows.

Map to a Million, where we're putting this philosophy into action, is a group container for those who want to approach wealth-building as a co-creative game with the universe.

Some of us were trained to say yes faster than our intuition can blink. The result is a life that looks generous from the outside and feels strangely heavy on the inside. This episode explores why over-giving sneaks into the days of spiritual entrepreneurs and dream builders, and how it quietly limits wealth, energy, and your ability to receive.

In this episode, you'll hear a story that feels familiar in a way you can't quite explain. You'll notice patterns you have carried for years. You may even laugh at how easily your yes has been running the show. This is the beginning of reclaiming space, energy, and the capacity required for bigger dreams.

A playful invitation: try one tiny 'no' this week and watch what happens.

In this episode, Kathy shares how she mistakenly used to push abundance away, by brushing off compliments, racing to always pay the bill, and downplaying help when she needed it most. What looked like humility was actually resistance, blocking the flow of support, wealth, and opportunity. Listeners will learn how receiving with gratitude is a powerful manifestation practice that builds confidence, strengthens self-worth, and opens the door to more money, love, and success.

Every dream starts with a spark.

In this first full episode of The Inspiritude Effect, Kathy Sherwood traces the thread from decades of quiet, private spiritual practice to the moment “Inspiritude” was named – and the path from there to this podcast.

You’ll hear where the vision began, what the name truly means, and why it refused to fade, even after early attempts didn’t quite fit. Through honest storytelling, gentle rule-breaking, and hard-won truths, Kathy reveals how years of whispers, side roads, and persistent hope came together in a space where everyone has a seat, no one is left out, and joy is part of the journey.

If you’ve ever felt the pull to create something big but weren’t sure where to begin, or if you’ve begun and had to begin again, this episode is your reminder: the first spark is worth keeping alive.

Come for the spark. Stay for the permission to follow your own way.
