Does Intuition Always Lead to the Light? Facing Darkness on the Spiritual Path

We love to imagine intuition as the gentle voice that always guides us toward ease, abundance,
and light. But what about the times when following your intuition feels like it leads you straight
into the fire?
In this third episode of Mystic in Training, Melissa Amos explores the misunderstood side of
intuition — the one that sometimes takes us into darkness, difficulty, and deep discomfort.
Melissa shares her own stories of regret, fear, and ego-bruising moments after making intuitive
choices. From leaving a high-paying job (and grieving the loss of her beloved company car!) to
navigating physical pain, shame, and unexpected lessons, she invites you to see intuition not just
as a protector, but as a teacher.
✨ In this episode you’ll discover:
- Why intuition sometimes leads us into hard situations instead of away from them
- The hidden role of “initiation points” in your spiritual journey
- How intuition can draw out strength and skills you never knew you had
- A personal story of healing chronic pain by opening up to vulnerability
- Why courage and intuition are inseparable on the path of becoming
Melissa also offers a contemplation to carry with you: *In order to become the person I am being
called to be, what do I need to go through?*

can emerge more whole, more powerful, and more you.
