This is so crucial to remember. I give this advice to girls most consistently because I firmly believe women are more intuitive than men. Women pick up energies quicker, they decipher body language a lot faster, their senses are extremely sharp and I’ve always told my friends that the reason why men call intuitive women “crazy” is because these women can tap into the subliminal levels of any atmosphere and tell you, “Something’s not right.” My mother would always say to me that if a man tells you not to listen to your voice, he’s definitely looking to harm you. “So always listen to yourself honestly.” And I still do. I always will. I have regretted (severely) the few times I chose not to listen to my inner voice. Your intuition, especially as a woman, is the knife you hold in your hand at all times. You sharpen it, you aim it to the outside, never turn it in on yourself, never let someone tell to put it down. Put it down only when you feel that it is time to do so.
