Dr Ricci-Jane Adams is an intuition expert, spiritual teacher and mentor, author and speaker. She is the founder and principal of the Institute for Intuitive Intelligence®, which she established in 2014 as a training hub for developing intuition into a sense people trust and actively live.
She has spent over thirty years on the path of spiritual awakening, after nearly twenty years of being raised by her soul-seeking mother. Her adult life has gone into reading, writing, training and practising in many spiritual modalities. She studied the major religions, read sacred texts, explored metaphysical philosophies and sat with gurus. She also completed a PhD in magical realism at the University of Melbourne, which gave her more time to think about the nature of reality.
Her teaching comes back to one idea: we are each the power, and intuition is the way home to it. She calls the practice she pioneered Intuitive Intelligence®. It is a process of removing the fear blocks that keep people from knowing their connection to infinite consciousness. Her phrase for living from that knowing is being "spiritually fierce." Her stated mission is to lead a revolution in excellence in the intuitive sciences, using language that speaks to everyone and not only to those already convinced.
She teaches in Australia and around the world, in formats ranging from weekend workshops to retreats and months-long intensives. The Institute offers short and long programs in intuitive intelligence, contemporary mysticism and spiritual leadership, with a focus on excellence and ethics. She shares meditations on Insight Timer and hosts a podcast of interviews with spiritually fierce change agents from around the world.
She is the author of Superconscious Intuition, on the spiritually mature form of intuition that guides us to the truth of what we are. She also wrote Love Notes to the Divine, a collection of contemplations and meditations for daily devotion.
Worth Knowing
Dr. Ricci-Jane Adams is an intuition expert and spiritual teacher who founded the Institute for Intuitive Intelligence® in 2014 to help people develop intuition as a trusted, practiced sense for daily life. She holds a PhD in magical realism from the University of Melbourne and has spent over thirty years on the path of spiritual awakening, studying with gurus, sacred texts, and multiple spiritual modalities. Her core teaching rests on one idea: "we are each the power, and intuition is the way home to it." She practices what she calls Intuitive Intelligence—a process of removing fear-based blocks that obscure our connection to infinite consciousness. What distinguishes her in the spiritual teaching landscape is her refusal of platitude and her contemporary language; she's explicit that her mission is to "lead a revolution in excellence in the intuitive sciences, using language that speaks to everyone and not only to those already convinced." The phrase "spiritually fierce" encapsulates her vision of awakening as bold, engaged living, not passive transcendence. Students and teachers value her work because she combines academic rigor with lived mystical experience, offering a framework for consciousness and intuition that doesn't require prior initiation into a guru lineage.
