The Universe Is Sending You Signs: Are You Listening? How to Fine Tune Your Intuition to Step Into Your Purpose and Dream Life with Dr. Tara Swart
03 Sep 2025
This episode is brought to you by Cozy Earth, LMNT, and Fatty15. Have you ever had a sign or a gut feeling that you brushed off as a coincidence? What if those moments weren’t random at all, but subtle guidance pointing you in the right direction? On today’s episode, we explore how these signs show up in our lives, why we often miss them, and how understanding the science behind intuition can help us tune in and act with clarity. Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, Dhru sits down with world-renowned neuroscientist Dr. Tara Swart to explore the key signs of greater intelligence that often appear in our lives. She explains how our modern world can prevent us from noticing these signs and receiving guidance, and how the brain itself acts as a filter. Through practices such as visualization and intention-setting, we can activate the reticular activating system to better recognize opportunities that align with our goals. Dr. Tara also breaks down the science of intuition and “signs,” showing how gut feelings and dreams are rooted in real brain-body connections, while offering practical tools to rewire limiting beliefs. She reminds us that transformation isn’t magic, but rather biology combined with aligned action. Dr. Tara Swart is a PhD neuroscientist and Oxford University-trained medical doctor. She is Senior Advisor for Neuroscience and Leadership at MIT Sloan School of Management, best-selling author of The Source, and a Trustee of the Lady Garden Foundation. Tara is the Chief Science Officer at Dirtea, an adaptogenic mushroom company, and the Mind Ambassador at Healf.com. Tara is passionate about empowering people through the intersection of science and spirituality.
