Ever feel yourself outsourcing your power to the next course, coach or hack? Same. 

In this conversation with certified coach Carly Clark Zimmer, we dig into how to rebuild self-trust so you can make clear, grounded business decisions without the constant second-guessing. We unpack why overthinking drains you more than doing, how parts work (IFS) creates internal harmony, and the simple (not easy) practice that unlocks clarity: spaciousness.

You’ll hear real talk on comparison traps, sunk-cost stubbornness, and how to know when to keep going vs. pivot. 

Plus, Carly’s free tool—the Five-Minute Laser Coach—to spark a quick breakthrough.

We’ll Unpack:

• Why entrepreneurs outsource self-trust—and how to take it back
• The difference between thinking about doing vs. doing (and why thinking is often more exhausting)
• Parts work/IFS in plain English: letting every “instrument” in your inner orchestra be heard
• A simple decision filter: priorities, capacity, context
• When to stick with a strategy vs. press pause on what isn’t converting
• Practicing intuitive decision-making (yes, even on “what’s for dinner”)
