Summary
In this episode, Corrine and Neil reflect on a lesson that took years to come full circle: the power of listening to your gut, even when it goes against popular advice.
Corrine opens up about the decision to restart her Mint Arrow Instagram account from scratch, a choice that felt right in her spirit but went against the advice of nearly everyone around her. Years later, that gut feeling was affirmed by an expert who told her it was exactly what he would’ve recommended. This leads into a deeper conversation about mentorship, personal revelation, and learning to filter advice through your own values, character, and calling.
Together, Corrine and Neil share why it’s so important to choose mentors whose lives align with the kind of future you actually want—and how to recognize red flags when someone’s influence, even well-meaning, might be pulling you out of alignment. They also talk about the difference between mimicking someone else's path and building your own with authenticity, wisdom, and spiritual discernment.
This episode is a reminder that not all good advice is your good advice—and sometimes, the Spirit will confirm what you already know deep down.
