Discernment in a World of Misinformation

How to Trust Your Inner Knowing

In this soul-stirring episode of Awakening Conversations, Kate and Amanda explore the urgent need for discernment during these rapidly shifting times. As narratives collide and truth becomes harder to pin down, they offer a grounded, heart-centered guide to reconnecting with your own inner compass.

Through personal stories—from the Arab Spring to 9/11—they expose how mainstream narratives often distort reality, keeping us in a reactive, fear-based state. Together, they unpack how to tune into your body, question the information you’re consuming, and embrace the humility of not-knowing as a doorway to deeper truth. You’ll learn how to build your discernment muscle, protect your energy, and align your choices with your values—one intuitive decision at a time.

Takeaways:

  • We are in a collective discernment bootcamp. These times of mass awakening and crumbling narratives are accelerating our ability to sense truth from illusion.
  • Media often shows a fragment of the truth—if any at all. News and social media are designed to provoke emotional responses, not to inform with full context.
  • Fear is a tool of manipulation. When stories evoke panic, urgency, or outrage, ask: Who benefits from this emotion? Why now?
  • Discernment starts with slowing down. Reactivity pulls us out of truth. Pause, step back, and observe the energetic tone behind information.
  • The body is a truth-telling instrument. Learn to sense truth physically—through breath, tension, intuition, and emotional responses.
  • Ask powerful questions like “Does this feel true for me?” “What else is here?” “What’s the frequency of this message?” “Who benefits from this narrative?”
  • Stay open and humble. Embracing “I don’t know” creates space for deeper understanding and flexibility of perspective.
  • Truth is accelerating because consciousness is rising. As more is revealed, we must learn to sit with discomfort and move through inner fracturing to rebuild from truth.
  • Your values are your compass. Understanding what you deeply care about helps filter out manipulation and align with authentic action.
  • Break free from social pressure and performative responses. You don’t need to jump on every trend or campaign—discernment gives you permission to pause and evaluate.
  • Disinformation keeps people distracted and disempowered. When locked in fear or outrage, we are not creating the new world—we’re feeding the old one.
  • Discernment is a muscle. Like intuition, it grows stronger through practice, observation, and self-trust.
