About this episode

Timothy Schultz interviews Dr. Helané Wahbeh about the science of intuition and precognition.

In this episode of Lottery, Dreams and Fortune , Powerball winner Timothy Schultz speaks with Dr. Helané Wahbeh, Director of Research at the Institute of Noetic Sciences, about the science of intuition, precognition, and extraordinary human experiences. Dr. Wahbeh studies intuitive phenomena in controlled research settings, including gut feelings, dreams about future events, and moments when people seem to know something before it happens. She explains how intuition may exist on a spectrum—from subtle bodily sensations and sudden knowing to precognitive dreams and other unusual experiences. We also discuss synchronicity, coincidence, the Ganzfeld experiment, and the scientific efforts to measure intuition and consciousness. This conversation explores what science may be discovering about the limits of human perception—and whether intuition might reveal more than our five senses allow. Lottery, Dreams and Fortune explores real stories of luck, intuition, consciousness, and life-changing moments through conversations with scientists, experts, and lottery winners.
