Tired of freezing every time you need to choose? This video reveals how self-doubt and limiting beliefs hijack your decisions — and exactly how to rebuild inner guidance and self-trust.
We unpack decision paralysis, the childhood patterns that create it, and practical steps for personal growth so you can start choosing with confidence today. Short exercises, journaling prompts, and mindset shifts included.
In this episode I explain: where the fear of making decisions comes from (criticism, responsibility, chaos, people-pleasing), how your nervous system learned to keep you “safe” by waiting, and five concrete practices to reclaim your decision-making power — from micro-decisions to treating choices like experiments.
Key takeaways:
- Self-doubt is a signal, not a flaw — it often comes from limiting beliefs wired in childhood.
- Decision paralysis happens when your brain overestimates threat and underestimates your resilience.
- Rebuild trust with tiny choices, self-validation (ask yourself first), and treating decisions as experiments.
- Learn to notice the difference between fear, intuition, and conditioning — your body (gut/sacral area) can guide you.
Try this: before asking others, ask yourself, “What would I choose if no one else had an opinion?” Then test it as an experiment and adjust as you go. Small wins retrain your nervous system and build lasting confidence.
