We’ve turned intuition into a buzzword—flattened it into a slogan, a gut feeling, or a vague whisper we don’t always know how to hear. But what if intuition is so much more? What if it's one of the most powerful tools we have—and we’ve just forgotten how to use it? In this episode, I’m joined by Hrund Gunnsteinsdóttir , Icelandic thought leader, filmmaker, and author of InnSæi: Icelandic Wisdom for Turbulent Times . Hrund has spent over 20 years studying and teaching the science and art of intuition through her TED Talk, Netflix documentary (InnSæi: The Power of Intuition), and global work on leadership, innovation, and inner knowing. Together, we explore what intuition really is (hint: not woo-woo), how to cultivate it in a culture obsessed with logic and overthinking, and why your ability to listen to yourself might be the most essential skill you can develop. In This Episode, We Cover: ✅ Why we’ve misunderstood intuition—and how to reclaim it ✅ Practical ways to strengthen your intuitive muscle ✅ What Icelandic wisdom teaches us about inner knowing ✅ How to use intuition during uncertainty and decision-making ✅ Why trusting yourself is an act of rebellion (and power) Intuition isn’t magic—it’s a deep, internal guidance system that already exists inside you. The question is: are you listening?

Egyptian American Comedian Tamer Kattan on Learning Who We Are Through Language 1:02:14

Spring Day, an American comedian brushing up on her Japanese skills during the pandemic, interviews people from all walks of life about their experience living, working, traveling, studying and loving in a second language—often in adult language so this podcast may not always be appropriate for young ears. This episode features winner of the World Series of Comedy, Tamer Kattan. We get into a broad range of topics: what it was like to move to the US from Egypt as a small child, what role language played in Tamer's rebelling against authority, how adolescence is hard enough without having to learn a second language, how the cultural differences changed the dynamics of Tamer's family and how his later travels "de-Americanized" and ultimately freed his thinking. Tamer is an amazing talent you should check out. He also has an incredible podcast interviewing fellow American Immigrants (with his incredible mother—Kitty) They Tried to Bury Us . Please check him and his podcast out at tamerkattan.com…

Spring Day, an American comedian brushing up on her Japanese skills interviews people from all walks of life about their experience living, working, traveling, studying and loving in a second language—often in adult language (especially this episode!) so this podcast may not always be appropriate for young ears. This is the first episode of season two! Spring first gives the lowdown on her wedding over the two week break and you get to hear a particularly flowery and hilarious outburst of profanity that anyone who has helped a parent set up Zoom remotely can relate to. It is a real treat. Today’s guest is the Venezuelan comedian in Australia and friend Ivan Aristeguieta. His bilingual language journey is an exciting one unlike any we’ve heard on the show. Since love is in the air we also talk about whether or speaking different languages really causes communication problems. A few minutes of the interview audio quality isn’t great great but stick with it, it gets better and is totally worth it!
