No. 61 Indecision, overthinking + learning to trust your gut
Ever catch yourself agonizing over even the tiniest decisions — what to eat, what to text, what to wear — like each one carries impossible weight? You’re not alone. When self-trust starts to slip, even small choices can feel paralyzing, and the constant second-guessing can leave you anxious, drained, and disconnected from your own instincts.
In this episode, we talk about:
Why indecision is often a disguise for anxiety and control
How small choices become emotional stand-ins for bigger stressors
Rebuilding trust in yourself through tiny, low-stakes experiments
Learning to tolerate uncertainty (and stop chasing the “right” choice)
Why you can handle the consequences — even if things don’t go perfectly
Grounding yourself before making a choice so you can actually hear your gut
It’s not really about dinner plans or sending texts — it’s about remembering that you can handle whatever happens next.

Your prescription for living well, dose for this week: Indecision often comes from anxiety and self-doubt, not a lack of ability. When you calm your nervous system, stop chasing the “perfect” choice, and trust that you can handle whatever happens, decisions get easier—and your self-trust grows. Building self-trust happens by making small decisions, experiencing the outcomes, and realizing you can survive them. Even when something doesn’t work out, you’re still okay. 🌷
