Have you ever considered the myriad forms kindness can take? Discover the transformative power of the "good G's" as my son, Mcguire Ferrara, joins me for a candid look into the virtues of being grateful, generous, gracious, gentle, and genuine. This episode of Intuitive Insights is not only a mother-son bonding moment but an exploration into the very essence of human empathy. McGuire, with his youthful wisdom, often referred to as Mac Attack, breaks down how small acts of consideration can halt arguments and create a ripple of positivity. We also dissect the triad of honesty—kindness, truth, and necessity—and share how this framework can refine our integrity.

Woven into our discussion is the enchanting topic of intuition. It's a sense that guides us unnoticed, often underestimated, yet it significantly impacts our choices. From a child's pure perspective, we discuss how this internal compass can be trusted from an early age, highlighting the subtle yet profound ways it influences our daily interactions. As we wrap up, I invite listeners to acknowledge the magic within themselves, that special blend of kindness, love, and creativity that connects us to the universe's larger tapestry. This episode is a heartwarming reminder to cherish your intuitive magic and share it generously, and I'm profoundly grateful for the shared wisdom of my mother and the insightful nuggets from my son. Tune in for an uplift of spirit and a nudge to embrace the extraordinary within you.

Speaker 1:

Hello and welcome to Intuitive Insights. I am your host, megan McDonough, where we discuss all things intuition and how we can be more in tune with it to optimize it for ourselves. This week I have a very special guest and we explore the idea of kindness and intuition and how we use it at all ages of kindness and intuition and how we use it at all ages.

Speaker 2:

All right, I have a special guest here with me today and I thought we might discuss a little bit about yes, you, about how we use kindness and our understanding of intuition and what it is, and how we use it in our lives. So who do I have with me today? Wait, what's your name? Mcguire Ferrara, excellent, and how do I know you?

Speaker 3:

Because you're my mom. That's right.

Speaker 2:

So okay, Mac, Can I call you Mac? Yes, Mac what do you think kindness is?

Speaker 3:

Kindness is when you can place someone, when somebody is excluded. Kindness is when you help someone in need. Kindness is when you start arguments.

Speaker 2:

Stop arguments or start Stop arguments. Oh yeah.

Speaker 3:

How would you be kind by starting.

Speaker 2:

That's what I thought. Yeah, I know.

Speaker 3:

Kindness is when you help someone hurt. Kindness is when you help someone up. Kindness is when somebody might trip and you help and then you give them a Band-Aid.

Speaker 2:

Yeah. Is there anything else that could be kind? Maybe? How you talk to people.

Speaker 3:

Maybe just like et cetera, yeah, et cetera, because there's a ton of there's a ton of ways to be kind right. Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Okay, another question. Well, do you remember the good G's?

Speaker 3:

Uh, grateful yeah, Generous Yep Gratitude.

Speaker 2:

Gracious, it's a hard one, yeah.

Speaker 3:

Gracious. Yeah, I don't know if I'm going to say gentle, what about gentle, gentle, gentle?

Speaker 2:

And being honest, what you did today? Genuine, genuine, genuine. Yeah, and do you remember what are the three components of being honest? It has to be what, what and what, in order to say it.

Speaker 3:

Kind, true and necessary.

Speaker 2:

Excellent, okay, so now I have a question for you, are you ready? Uh-huh.

Speaker 3:

Is it going to be hard?

Speaker 2:

I hope not what's intuition.

Speaker 3:

I don't know Okay.

Speaker 2:

so if I said I don't know what is okay. So if I said do you have that thing where you just kind of know before you know? Do you know what?

Speaker 3:

I mean by that. Like you know, oh, like you do something and like like I do something when you don't even tell, when somebody doesn't even tell you to do it, yeah, or you feel something before it happens, that's a good R.

Speaker 2:

responsible, that is a great R. So do you feel like, if you feel something before it happens, or you just kind of know, it in your body, in your brain, that this is right, this is correct, this is what I should do. Does that make sense to you have? You ever had that happen.

Speaker 3:

Wait, I'm sorry you weren't listening.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, okay. So like, have you ever felt something or seen, you know in your mind's eye something happened before it happened, or that you like knew something was going to happen, or just you felt something is right and that you did it without anyone telling you. Did you ever have that experience Any of those?

Speaker 3:

I did one of those times when I made my bed and you didn't even tell me to.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, Dude, that's a good one. Your intuition, your inner knowing was saying hey, this is a good deed right.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, right.

Speaker 2:

And why do you think you did it? Why do you think you made your bed?

Speaker 3:

Because I wanted to get the point honestly.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, honestly, I hear that Because you wanted to get the point honestly. Yeah, honestly, I hear that Because you wanted to get the prize.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, I was really looking forward to it.

Speaker 2:

Yeah Well, do you know what it is to if I said feel-see, feel-no, feel-feel, yeah? Does that make any sense to you? Or how would you interpret that?

Speaker 3:

I would interpret it like feel Like you feel that something good or bad is going to happen 100%. Then you see it happen 100%. And then you hear something, you think something might happen, and then you hear it happen Sure.

Speaker 2:

So kind of knowing before right. And have you ever had that happen?

Speaker 3:

It's kind of like reading someone's mind.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 3:

But like it's reading the world's mind, I like that. That's interesting Reading what Time's mind?

Speaker 2:

Time's mind, yeah, but like reading the world's mind.

Speaker 3:

I like that, that's interesting.

Speaker 2:

Reading what Time's mind, time's mind. Have you ever done that?

Speaker 3:

Like yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2:

Have you ever tried it?

Speaker 3:

No, actually, actually I didn't. I thought I did oh that's okay, that's all right.

Speaker 2:

And what does it mean to trust yourself? What does that mean? What do you think that means?

Speaker 3:

Like if you're doing something and I'm like maybe like you're doing a math quiz, and then like what's seven times eight? And I just trust myself that it's 56, because it actually is 56.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and do you trust yourself more than you rely on other people and other information to confirm you're correct?

Speaker 3:

Uh no.

Speaker 2:

What do you think?

Speaker 3:

Maybe, maybe not, maybe, maybe no, maybe so. Yeah, Maybe yes maybe no, maybe, so, maybe yes maybe, no, maybe.

Speaker 2:

So. Do you think trusting yourself could be a form of intuition, possibly? What do you think?

Speaker 3:

Wait, what's the first thing?

Speaker 2:

Trusting yourself. Do you think that could be a form of intuition? Yes, and do you think that there's any ways that you could practice trusting yourself? I'm not sure, you're not sure. Well, that's okay, you've got some time. How old are you again? Seven, seven, I'm kind of eight, yeah, yeah, that's right, totally. Um, okay, I got a deep question for you. Think you can handle it what do you think?

Speaker 3:

maybe, maybe I might be able to handle it.

Speaker 2:

I bet you can, I trust, I trust that can. Can you trust yourself that you can? You trust, uh-huh Okay, so do you think the world is a kind place?

Speaker 3:

But there is some bullies.

Speaker 2:

There are some bullies.

Speaker 3:

And what?

Speaker 2:

do you think that the bullies of the world, what do you think could help make them kind?

Speaker 3:

Like, if you do something nice to them, I thought they would be nice to you, like, because maybe a bully would mean to them, mm-hmm, them Yep. So they were mean to them, to them, and then they took over him, yeah, and then there was bullies bullying more people.

Speaker 2:

Yep.

Speaker 3:

And then like I'm getting trapped. Yeah, you forgot what you were talking about. All I wanted to say.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 3:

What I meant is like these people were mean to God.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 3:

So they were mean to us and other people Mm-hmm to other people, mm-hmm, and then and then, since other people believe in him, maybe if you're kind to him, he'll be kind to you yeah.

Speaker 2:

Do you believe so? There is a saying and I'm probably going to mess it up, but it's energy cannot in a container. Energy cannot be destroyed or created, it just is. So. If that negative energy of someone being mean to somebody can't be destroyed, it just has to live somewhere else or go somewhere else, right?

Speaker 3:

Yeah, and you have to live like another person, right? Because, like I was saying, somebody would mean to them and then probably they gave up, and then they would mean to them, and then they destroyed them and um, and then they, and then they were and then they were mean to everybody, absolutely. And then, when they give up being mean, it's like someone.

Speaker 2:

Well, how can they not be mean anymore? Because that's the question I ask, like how can we just be nice to them? Is that all it takes, okay?

Speaker 3:

I think that's all, because, like, if you're mean to them, then they're mean to you. Yep so if you're nice to them, they're nice to you.

Speaker 2:

So here Can you take a big ball of negative mean energy that a bully gives you and morph it into a positive, beautiful, light-filled energy.

Speaker 3:

Yes.

Speaker 2:

You can.

Speaker 3:

You could just throw it in the trash.

Speaker 2:

That's true, you could totally throw it in the trash.

Speaker 3:

And think about that. Possibly the trash could just become evil. But that's just fiction.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, why do you think people meditate?

Speaker 3:

To calm themselves down.

Speaker 2:

Do you meditate Partly, yeah, partly. Not all the time, but do you like it when you do? Sometimes, Can you tell me how you meditate or how you like to meditate when you do? I like to meditate when you do I like to meditate with you. I like to meditate with you.

Speaker 3:

Yes, what do you think the world needs right now? Some people need help, some people need kindness. Some people need help, some people need kindness, some people need a friend, some people need specific things, and et cetera.

Speaker 2:

Et cetera. And what can you do Help them? Yeah, how, what's something you could do kind of like every day or in general, to help them In general.

Speaker 3:

Help them, just help them in general. Yeah, yeah, I got a good one.

Speaker 2:

You know what you could do kind of like every day or in general, to help them In general. Help them, just help them in general. Yeah, I got a good one. You know what you could do, what? Give everyone a smile, give them a compliment.

Speaker 3:

Okay, say hi.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, just like you're doing now.

Speaker 3:

But not like a smile like this.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, not like a big teethy smile like your veins popping out?

Speaker 3:

Yeah, because that can cause me to get like creeps Super and that will make them like not.

Speaker 2:

Scared right yeah, that's not getting the result. You want.

Speaker 3:

It's not making them like that scared because humans can't make their mouth open so wide.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, well, that's true Yep. That's pretty wide, Yep, with your fingers in it extending the cheeks, yeah, but we don't have it with the cheeks. Yeah.

Speaker 3:

So they go all the way from here to here.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I can see what you're doing. You're just putting your fingers in your mouth and expanding it as much as you can.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, and then like if there was teeth filling in those gaps, that would actually be creepy.

Speaker 2:

It would be creepy, you're right.

Speaker 3:

But also it might not make them scared, but it won't make them like happy. Okay, like a smile, not like a little non-teasy smile would be like make them more happy.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, so just like a gentle smile. Yeah, no teeth, but what about like one or two teeth? Let me try that.

Speaker 3:

But that's like impossible. How is it? I can't do it. All you do is do this like.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, you're having a hard time trying to figure that one out. Okay, what's something awesome about yourself?

Speaker 3:

I'm looking for something awesome about yourself.

Speaker 2:

You are kind. What do you love about yourself?

Speaker 3:

What's your?

Speaker 2:

favorite thing about yourself. I love that you love birds too. What's something you want to learn? Okay?

Speaker 3:

I love that. I love nature. All right, well, go ahead. I love that. I love nature. There's more to learn about. I honestly don't know what I want to learn about. I would like to learn more about birds, yeah, but I don't think that's much there because I already know a ton about birds.

Speaker 2:

That's true, you do know a ton, but do you think there's always room to grow and learn?

Speaker 3:

Yes, yes. What if you think there's always room to grow and learn? Yes, yes, but what if you grow too high, higher than the sky? But then, if you're higher than the sky, then you have to go through the atmosphere and you're going to die.

Speaker 2:

That's, you know, that is true.

Speaker 3:

Because there's no ground to pass the atmosphere.

Speaker 2:

That's right and our air really, yeah, right, our air Right, or the air that we're used to breathing, or that we can breathe with our systems. Right, yes, yes. What do you want to be when you grow up? That's a tough question, is it?

Speaker 3:

I would like to be, I would like to, I would like to be like an engineer.

Speaker 2:

Uh-huh.

Speaker 3:

And a scientist.

Speaker 2:

Uh-huh.

Speaker 3:

And maybe a little person A little yeah. Because I'd be like a scientist. I'd learn about like birds.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 3:

Because, like I'm a scientist, yeah Duh, yeah duh and then I can engineer robots for the stuff I've heard about, and, besides, because I have so much information on them. I can make them.

Speaker 2:

And you could use the Legos to make them out of Legos right.

Speaker 3:

The exact same personality. And I also really want to make a new Lego set. Hmm, okay, I really want to make the Among Us Lego set.

Speaker 2:

The Among Us Lego set.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, but I think they're like bad.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, Is there anything else you wanted to share with me today? No, not really. Well, if I said you have the magic of the universe inside you, what does that mean?
