How Childhood Trauma Can Shape Intuition – The Science of Spiritual Gifts | Laura Day

20 Oct 2025

Description

SHOW NOTES Ep. 146 | Is heightened intuition a gift or a trauma response? Why is it stronger for some than others, and what is the science behind why some people have ‘psychic’ abilities? Laura Day, world renowned intuitive and bestselling author of Practical Intuition and her new book The Prism, is diving into why our unique childhood experiences & ‘wounds’ can determine the ways in which our intuition may express as an adult. Laura grew up in a chaotic home affected by suicide, manic depression, and narcissism, effectively raising her siblings alone, and is sharing how her beginning actually became the portal to discovering her intuitive gifts. She breaks down the important difference between intuition and wisdom, and why intuition can be both a superpower and a stumbling block depending on how we develop it. HERE'S THE JUICE - Breaking down how she developed her gift for intuition through trauma, highlighting  how many of our childhoods are prone to trauma due to lack of power - Laura shares her early life experiences – coming from three generations of physicians, and how that gave her a data-driven approach to intuition - Why the very things that challenged us most often become our points of greatest strength and tangible steps to identify our challenges and take small steps to create the life we want - The importance of avoiding the trap of constantly trying to “change yourself” and instead approaching the mind as a mechanical system that may only need a small change - The crucial difference between intuition and wisdom - Why intuition is a double-edged sword and when we should and shouldn't listen to it   TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Laura speaking on Gift and trauma of intuition 03:09 Laura Day's Story 09:24 The science behind intuition 15:38 The role of trauma in intuition 22:09 The mechanics of change and the importance of small changes 29:32 Understanding intuition and its limits 35:30 Empowered realistic thinking 36:21 Navigating self-perception and growth 40:07 The power of reparenting and healing 51:47 Understanding ergo centers and intuition 01:05:02 Setting goals and embracing change   MY MUSIC IS OFFICIALLY OUT NOW ⭐️❤️🥲 Listen to Another Lover Listen to Love Sounds  Follow me on Spotify (O.LIVIA)   Watch the full episode: What’s The Juice YouTube Channel  Olivia’s herbal remedies: HERE Shop Olivia’s line of herbalist-formulated supplements for digestion, anxiety, thyroid support, and more at www.organicolivia.com.   Connect with Olivia: Follow Organic Olivia  Olivia’s personal IG Organic Olivia on TikTok Read Olivia’s blog posts   Connect with Laura Day:  Follow on Instagram Upcoming Events  Website The Prism   Connect with What’s The Juice: Follow What’s The Juice  Email us: [email protected]
