Join hosts Kristen Forno | Life Threading and Amy Potter | From the Earth Creative for an extraordinary conversation with intuitive consultant, author, and teacher Jennifer Halls on the launch day of her new book "You Know: How to Invite and Nourish a Relationship with Your Intuition."

After 20 years in development and 25,000+ client sessions, Jennifer shares her practical approach to intuition that transcends typical "woo-woo" practices. Discover why she chose "invitation" over "manifestation" after her own failed attempts at manifesting in her twenties, and how this simple shift can transform your relationship with inner knowing.

In this deeply personal episode, Jennifer reveals how she transitioned from museum curator to intuitive guide, while Kristen and Amy share how meeting Jennifer changed their life paths. Learn why grounding is actually about expansion, not limitation, and explore the paradox of intuition being both inside and outside of us.

The episode features Jennifer's favorite grounding practice—the surprisingly playful "butt squeeze" technique—proving that spiritual work doesn't have to be serious to be powerful. Jennifer emphasizes that our bodies hold more wisdom than our minds can fathom, and that intuition can only be felt in the present moment.

Whether you're a skeptic or seasoned practitioner, Jennifer's practical, accessible approach offers something for everyone. She reminds us that the intuitive path isn't direct or always easy, but it leads to authentic satisfaction. Most importantly, Jennifer shares her hope that simply reading her book will open something in readers' relationship with their intuition—no exercises required, just an openness to the stories and their transformative power.

In this enlightening episode, hosts Kristen Forno | Life Threading and Amy Potter | From the Earth Creative dive into the fascinating world of Human Design—a system that integrates nine systems - astrology (Eastern and Western), I Ching, the Kabbalah, the Hindu-Brahmin chakra system, quantum physics, bio-chemistry, genetics, neutrino science, and astronomy - to map and help you understand your unique energetic blueprint.

The conversation begins with Kristen sharing her morning beach walk observations about "light codes" and expands into how our energetic signatures interact with the world. The hosts discuss how Human Design provides practical insights into our decision-making processes, communication styles, and life paths.

Kristen explains her journey discovering Human Design through a former Human Design coach, and how this intricate system helped her understand why certain business approaches felt inauthentic. The hosts explore how Human Design works—combining birth time and location with astrological positions to identify your type, authority, and profile.

Kristen and Amy compare their charts, revealing Amy as an Emotional Generator with a 2/4 profile, while Kristen is a Manifesting Generator with a 6/2 profile. They explore how these differences explain their complementary working relationship and individual challenges.

The episode offers practical ways to start exploring Human Design, including free online chart generators and using AI to help interpret your results. It concludes with the exciting announcement that their next episode will feature their teacher Jennifer Halls discussing her new book on intuition.

In this enchanting spring episode of Coffee Date with Spirit, hosts Kristen Forno and Amy Potter invite listeners to shake off winter's stagnation and tune into the buzzing energy of renewal. The episode opens with a nature-inspired grounding meditation led by Amy, who channels the vibrant energy of bees and pollinators to help listeners clear blocked energy and open themselves to new growth.

As the hosts explore the theme of blocks—mental, spiritual, and creative—they pull cards from the Thoth Tarot, revealing profound insights about trusting intuitive thinking, acting with integrity, and embracing self-knowledge. The Prince of Swords encourages listeners to break through limiting thoughts, the Three of Wands emphasizes the importance of aligning mind, heart, and action, and the Queen of Wands reminds us to embrace our fully realized selves while honoring our journey.

The fairy oracle offers guidance on moving through blocks by embracing connection—to nature, to each other, and to the vast web of life that surrounds us. Kristen and Amy discuss how we often know what we need but get caught in mental loops that disconnect us from our inner wisdom.

The episode closes with practical suggestions for clearing blocks: ground into nature, trust your intuition over intellectual overthinking, ensure alignment between mind, heart, and action before moving forward, and take swift action once clarity arrives.

Perfect for anyone feeling stuck or seeking renewal as we shift into spring's energy, this episode offers listeners practical tools to clear stagnant energy and open themselves to new possibilities in the season of blooming.
