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?

I sat down with our Warrior podcast friends to discuss the 50th anniversary of my father’s legacy with our cast and crew joining in on the fun. July 20 marks the date not just of my father’s passing but of the beginning of his enduring legacy. And so for us this is a time of reflection and celebration. I am always astonished and humbled by and grateful for the impact that my father has had on culture and on the human spirit. My continued reverence for this impact is why I am inspired to carry on my own study of it and to share his legacy far and wide. He was able to accomplish so much by following his heart, his inner knowing and by being the best version of himself he could cultivate and express! And here we are still talking about him 50 years later.

For this new, mini season, the Bruce Lee Foundation is taking over the podcast for the month of May. May is AAPI Month and also Mental Health Awareness Month so what could be more perfect than to highlight the work of the Bruce Lee Foundation (BLF) and some of our amazing partners! The BLF is expanding its programming to focus more widely on youth mental wellness through the teachings of Bruce Lee. I always say that my father trained his mind just as diligently as he trained his body, and it was this secret sauce that lead to the depth of his impact worldwide! And so the BLF is committed to passing along those tools that can help our young people navigate life more clearly and gracefully. All four episodes this month will feature an amazing partner and/or collaborator of the BL F’s who is either in the AAPI space or the Youth Mental Wellness space. Or both! These marvelous humans are out there in the world doing amazing work in one form or another, and it is my privilege to be able to sit in conversation with them. And we also talk about Bruce Lee, of course! So join me this May 2023 for a special BLF edition of the BL Podcast! And be water, my friends! xShannon . Show notes & episodes on Brucelee.com/Podcast…
