59: Stop Outsourcing Your Writer's Intuition
Coherence in Writing: How to Write with God, Not Your Ego
Today I’m talking about coherence and clarity in our writing — what it is and how it’s the opposite of writing from your ego, brain, AI, or even consulting tools and people outside ourselves.
For years after my departure from organized religion and the Catholic church, I unknowingly outsourced my intuition to external tools like oracle cards, psychics, and reiki. I share my journey of abruptly walking away from those practices and why consulting anything outside myself—even for a hint of resonance—can quietly erode your trust in your own voice and disconnect you from the real source of creativity.
The invitation is to stop outsourcing and come back to the body. We all have an intuition because we have a body.
Key Takeaways
Coherence in writing is when you're co-creating with the divine, and the words arrive faster than your thoughts. A clue you're writing with your intuition is reading your writing back later, and you don't remember writing it.
The problem with outsourcing and consulting external people, tools, or energies (like AI, psychics, cards, or reiki) might calm your mind in the moment, but ultimately dull your inner knowing and flatten your unique writing voice.
Your body knows truth — it can't lie. Your body is your true pendulum, connected to God/Goddess/The Divine, and delivers your guidance as a knowing, sensation, vision, or signs.
The invitation to go inward - This week, quiet all outer noise. Use a pen, paper, your journal, prayer, meditation, or a walk in nature. You don't need any outside tools to hear your voice.
An Invitation to Deeper Work: If your writing feels scattered or disconnected, I invite you to reconnect to the part of you that already knows.
