• The Universe Is Sending You Signs: Are You Listening? How to Fine Tune Your Intuition to Step Into Your Purpose and Dream Life with Dr. Tara Swart

  This episode is brought to you by Cozy Earth, LMNT, and Fatty15. Have you ever had a sign or a gut feeling that you brushed off as a coincidence? What if those moments weren’t random at all, but subtle guidance pointing you in the right direction? On today’s episode, we explore how these signs show up in our lives, why we often miss them, and how understanding the science behind intuition can help us tune in and act with clarity. Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, Dhru sits down with world-renowned neuroscientist Dr. Tara Swart to explore the key signs of greater intelligence that often appear in our lives. She explains how our modern world can prevent us from noticing these signs and receiving guidance, and how the brain itself acts as a filter. Through practices such as visualization and intention-setting, we can activate the reticular activating system to better recognize opportunities that align with our goals. Dr. Tara also breaks down the science of intuition and “signs,” showing how gut feelings and dreams are rooted in real brain-body connections, while offering practical tools to rewire limiting beliefs. She reminds us that transformation isn’t magic, but rather biology combined with aligned action. Dr. Tara Swart is a PhD neuroscientist and Oxford University-trained medical doctor. She is Senior Advisor for Neuroscience and Leadership at MIT Sloan School of Management, best-selling author of The Source, and a Trustee of the Lady Garden Foundation. Tara is the Chief Science Officer at Dirtea, an adaptogenic mushroom company, and the Mind Ambassador at Healf.com. Tara is passionate about empowering people through the intersection of science and spirituality. In this episode, Dhru and Dr. Swart dive into:  Dr. Tara’s personal story of loss, grief, and her journey with signs and patterns (1:10) Fundamental beliefs we accept without proof and a discussion on near-death experiences (7:02) What Dr. Tara realized after her husband’s death and the greater source present in the universe (17:24) The importance of having community (20:17) Dhru’s personal story of signs after loss (21:25) How Dr. Tara navigated her grief and what led her to write her book (38:50) Why sharing your experiences with signs matters and how to identify your own (47:14) Finding a sense of purpose through signs (1:07:00) Practices to help us access and strengthen our intuition (1:18:57) The power of journaling (1:23:21) What to do when you ask for a sign and don’t get one (1:29:56) Feeling connected to signs while staying grounded in real life (1:34:35) The consequences of ignoring the signs life gives us (1:41:45) Final thoughts and takeaways (1:45:55) Also mentioned in this episode: The Signs: The New Science of How to Trust Your Instincts - Dr. Tara’s new book  For more on Dr. Swart, follow her on Facebook, X/Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, or visit her Website.

  This episode is brought to you by Maui Nui and Birch Living. What if a single nutrient could protect your brain, fight inflammation, and add healthy years to your life? Omega-3 can do all that and yet, over 95% of people are running on empty. Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, we’re revisiting one of our most talked-about moments with Dr. Bill Harris. He shares groundbreaking research linking high omega-3 levels to Alzheimer’s and dementia prevention, and how omega-3s can help reduce overall chronic inflammation.

William S. Harris, PhD, FASN, has been a leading researcher in the omega-3 fatty acid field for 40 years. He has authored over 300 scientific papers on fatty acids and health, has been on the faculty of three medical schools, and has received five NIH grants to study omega-3. He co-authored three AHA statements on fatty acids and heart health.
