Who’s in your life, and do you respect them, and do they respect you? And are you respecting them. Right?

To make sure you’re following your intuition from a grounded place, meditate on actions, and nourish your body. Ask yourself if your steps will help someone in some way.
If the answer to the last one is yes, your first instinct is usually right.
