Sometimes your gut doesn’t whisper — it screams. And when it does, you listen. Every woman knows that feeling: the instinct that something’s wrong. Maybe it’s a stranger’s tone, a sudden change in someone’s energy, or just that quiet pressure in your chest telling you to get out now. It’s not paranoia — it’s survival instinct, honed from generations of women who learned that trusting their intuition can literally save their lives.
So we want to hear from you: What was a moment your gut told you something was wrong — and you were right?
Maybe you were walking to your car at night and noticed someone trailing a little too close — so you turned around, made eye contact, and ducked into a nearby store until they disappeared.
Or, maybe you were on a date that suddenly didn’t feel safe. Something in his body language shifted, or his smile didn’t reach his eyes anymore — so you made an excuse, texted a friend, and left.
Perhaps you were traveling and got that unshakable feeling that you shouldn’t get into a certain cab — and later found out other passengers had been robbed that night.
Alternatively, you may have realized your partner’s anger wasn’t “just stress” when you found yourself apologizing for things you didn’t do — and your gut finally told you to leave.
Or it could have been something as small as deciding not to take a shortcut home, only to hear later there’d been an assault on that route.
These moments are chilling — but they’re also powerful reminders of the intuition so many women are taught to dismiss.
So tell us: When did your gut warn you that something was wrong — and what did you do?
