Through The Valley with Bahar Alexander

Episode 6: How Shadow Distorts Decision-Making (Integration Phase)


Listen Later

Why do smart, capable people still struggle with hesitation, impulsivity, perfectionism, or self-doubt when making important decisions?


In this episode of Through the Valley, Bahar explores how unintegrated emotional patterns and survival strategies — fight, flight, freeze, fawn, and fall apart — quietly distort decision-making.


You’ll learn how these patterns show up as passivity, delay, approval-seeking, overcontrol, and insecurity… and why decision-making is often driven by protection rather than clarity.


Bahar also shares practical exercises to help you interrupt patterns, reclaim inner authority, and make decisions more consciously.

If you want to move from subconscious sabotage to aligned decision-making, this episode is for you.
