Big decisions have a way of feeling heavier than they need to. Not because we don’t know what to do, but because we’ve been taught to believe there’s a right choice and a wrong one—and that everything rides on us getting it right.

In this Monday Muse, I talk about the pressure we put on ourselves when we’re deciding something that matters. The overthinking. The fear. The way we start polling everyone we know or building airtight pros-and-cons lists, hoping they’ll quiet the nervous system.

I share one mental shift that has made decision-making feel lighter and more honest for me—and for the people I work with. Let me be clear, there’s no “formula.” It’s bigger than that.  

If you’re at a crossroads—career, relationship, move, or next chapter—and feel stuck in your head, this episode is an invitation to let go of the idea that you can mess it all up.

Listen when you’re ready to stop carrying the weight of the outcome alone.
