In today’s episode, I’m sharing a real, unfiltered coaching session with a client who felt exhausted by circling the same questions over and over:
“What if I don’t really know what I want?”
“What if I make the wrong decision?”

As we talked, something powerful became clear:
she didn’t actually lack clarity.
Her brain had simply learned to associate purpose, growth, pressure, and success with overwhelm.
