Jennifer Wren Tolo’s intuitive awakening came through struggle, as she was forced to trust her inner guidance to navigate her sons’ health challenges. In this conversation, she tells the story of reawakening to her magic and how she helps others reconnect with their own gifts.
I met Jen at a Wellness Retreat in Sedona where we were both practitioners. Her table was next to mine, and when she saw me struggling with my setup, she immediately jumped in to help. This is what I’ve come to know about Jen: she’s a warrior woman who gets things done, grounded and practical, with amazing intuitive gifts.
Here’s some of what we explore:
- Coming out of the magical closet
- Jen’s story of her second son’s neonatal stroke and third son’s leukemia and how following her intuition helped them heal
- The healer’s dilemma that leads to exhaustion
- How to integrate the left and right brain, logic and intuition, traditional and alternative medicine, for health and healing
- Discerning the messages of your intuition: how do you know when they’re right or wrong?
- How to trust your inner knowing and overcome self-doubt
- Where healing really comes from
- How to know you’re ready to awaken your magical gifts

“When we merge the two [intuition and logic], we are our most powerful.” – Jennifer Wren Tolo
How to Awaken Your Intuition & the Power of Choice
If you’ve hidden your gifts, it’s time to reawaken and share them. For much of her life, Jen was afraid of what others might think about her intuitive gifts, so she turned to science and logic for legitimacy. It wasn’t until faced with the serious health challenges of her sons that she returned to her inner guidance.
Integrating your intuition and logic is the path of true power. Jen was drawn to critical care nursing because she wanted to nurture others through the chaos and troubleshooting. She learned to trust her intuitive hunches, but only shared them with scientific support. Her second son’s neonatal stroke was a wake up call to follow her intuition. By integrating energy healing and angelic guidance with her medical background, Jen was able to support her son’s healing.
Extremes throw us out of balance. Don’t choose either the spiritual or physical, intuitive or logical, but both. Listen to the magic inside, use science and logic to ground yourself, and let both of them light your path.
Allow your intuition to point the way to your own truth. Forget about other people’s opinions when ithey distracts you from your own knowing. Stop, listen, and trust what you know.
Receive intuitive messages with curiosity. It’s best not to assume the meaning of your intuitive nudges; rather use them as an invitation to get curious and ask questions. When you’re helping others, the goal is to help them awaken to their own inner knowing.
Healing comes from within the person, not from the healer. At first, Jen wanted so much to heal others that she gave everything she had, leading to exhaustion. She learned that her job as a healer is to connect and allow what’s needed to come through, without attachment to the outcome. A healer is a wayshower helping others to heal themselves.
Our challenges are gifts and blessings in disguise. Jen believes that children with special challenges are here as teachers for their parents to help reignite their magic.
Awaken your magic, one choice at a time. When you stop looking outside for help and turn within, the answers you need will be there. You can climb out of the pit you’re in one step at a time.
Alchemize your pain into magic. Jen urges us to use the dark, painful moments to reignite the light within and be reborn as something different. When self doubt comes, reframe it as your ego trying to protect you. Trust what you know and the noise will quiet over time.
“Our greatest power as human beings is the power of choice. One thought, one moment, one action, one choice at a time you can reshape the story and rebirth yourself.” – Jennifer Wren Tolo
