Inner Voice: "I heard it once and it said a bad word"

I'm trying to teach my boys (both are almost 5) about listening to their inner voice. I wish I had been made aware of this earlier in life....I may have made different choices and felt more true to myself.

Harrison kept asking "what does it sound like?" so I told him it's kind and loving, sometimes it's more of a feeling than a voice, and it's all HIS and he's the only one to hear it.

He paused for a long time.

Then he said "I heard mine once. And it said a bad word."

And I said "I can totally relate."
