318 | use this 1 question to confidently make decisions & do things you don't WANT to do but you know you NEED to do

What if the question “Do I want to do this?” isn’t the best question to ask?

Spoiler - it's not.

When you’re anxious, overwhelmed, tired, people-pleasing, or simply not in the mood, your emotions can make the easiest choice feel like the right choice. But the choice that feels good right now isn’t always the choice that will help you genuinely become the woman you're here to be.

In this episode, we’re talking about a simple filtering question for making better decisions:

“What will help me show up as my best self today?”

Instead of allowing your emotions, comfort, fear, or avoidance to automatically determine your choices, this question helps you pause, reconnect with your values, priorities, goals, and long-term wellbeing, and make a decision from the person you want to be.

We’ll explore the difference between honoring your emotions and being led by your emotions, how to make values-based decisions when you don’t feel like doing something, and why choosing what is genuinely helpful for you may sometimes look different from choosing what feels easiest.

If you’re an anxious or high-achieving 20-something who tends to overthink decisions, people-please, procrastinate, avoid discomfort, or constantly ask yourself “What do I feel like doing?”, this episode will give you a simple mindset shift you can start using today.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

Why “Do I want to do this?” can sometimes keep you stuckHow to separate your emotions from your decisionsThe difference between emotional awareness and emotional leadershipHow to make values-based decisions that support your long-term goalsA simple question to use when you’re tempted to choose comfort or avoidanceHow small daily decisions shape the person you’re becoming

You don’t have to ignore your feelings.

You just don’t have to let them be in the driver's seat & make the decision for you.
