Podcasts about make decisions

Welcome to Episode 321 of Autism Parenting Secrets. Parents make high-stakes decisions for their children all the time. And those decisions become much harder when they're surrounded by conflicting opinions, uncertainty, pressure, and fear. My guest this week is Dr. Taylor Bean, a Naturopathic Doctor and MAPS Fellow who is passionate about helping parents understand their options so they can make more informed decisions for their unique child. Her own journey into informed consent began when she became a mother, and that principle now runs throughout her work with families. In this conversation, we cover a lot of ground. Dr. Bean explains why she thinks the earliest years matter so much for establishing microbial health, why food introduction deserves more thought than it often receives, and how genetics can help practitioners better understand a child's inflammatory response. We also explore Vitamin A, probiotics, homeopathy, fever, and practical ways parents can prepare before their child gets sick. And we dive into vaccine decision-making, including why Dr. Bean believes so many parents find themselves in a "gray zone" where they aren't looking for someone to tell them what to do.  They want to understand their options so they can decide for themselves.. That's the bigger message here. You don't need someone else to make the decision for you. You need the information, support, and confidence to make an informed decision that's right for your child. The secret this week is…  Never Make Decisions Out Of FEAR You'll Discover: Why informed consent became foundational to Dr. Bean's work (3:15) Why MTHFR isn't the whole story when considering inflammatory response (15:50) Why Vitamin A plays such an important role in Dr. Bean's approach (19:32) How being prepared can reduce fear when your child gets sick (27:47) Why so many parents are stuck in the vaccine "gray zone" (40:44) About Our Guest: Dr. Taylor Bean is a Naturopathic Doctor and owner of TaylorMade Wellness in Salmon Arm, British Columbia. Becoming a mother is where her core value of achieving informed consent was born. While her profession taught her to be curious and treat each patient individually, it was her positive birthing experiences that changed her perspective on what a true doctor-patient relationship means. Her career started in Singapore, where she supported patients throughout Southeast Asia. She has been supporting Canadian families since 2016. www.drtaylorbean.com Vaccine Education Masteclass References in this Episode: MAPS Parent Conference - September 12-13, 2026 in Philadelphia, PA - Use code PARENT20 for discounted admission Medical Academy of Pediatrics & Special Needs (MAPS) Dr. Ben Lynch Additional Resources: To learn more about personalized 1:1 support go to www.elevatehowyounavigate.com If you enjoyed this episode, share it with your friends.

After betrayal, every decision can feel catastrophic. Stay or leave? Give more grace or set a harder boundary? Invest in support or save the money in case you need it later? When your brain is hyperalert, every possibility can begin to look like proof that one wrong choice will ruin your future. In this episode, Lora Cheadle explores why hypervigilance can disguise itself as careful decision-making—and why self-trust does not mean making perfect choices. Through the story of rebuilding her home after a devastating sewer explosion, along with her own experiences of choosing beauty, pleasure, and higher standards, Lora shows how recovery shifts when you stop trying to recreate the old or justify every choice and begin creating a life that genuinely reflects who you are now. Top 3 Takeaways 1. Hypervigilance can make every possibility look like catastrophe. After betrayal, your brain is trying to protect you from ever being blindsided again. That can turn thoughtful decision-making into endless analysis, freezing, catastrophizing, and searching for guarantees that do not exist. 2. Self-trust is not making the perfect decision. Self-trust means knowing that you can choose, experience what happens, gather more information, ask for help, reassess, change direction, and choose again. A decision that does not turn out perfectly is not proof that there is something wrong with you. 3. Recovery is not about rebuilding the old life. Whether you stay, leave, remodel your marriage, or create something entirely new, the deeper question is what you want your life to feel like now. Higher standards are not perfectionism. They are a willingness to value truth, emotional safety, beauty, pleasure, self-respect, and a life that feels fully yours. Favorite Quotes “Familiar does not mean it's automatically right. Cheap does not mean it's automatically the wisest decision. Practical does not automatically mean it's aligned with who you are and where you're going.” “Beauty and loving yourself and loving your surroundings…is evidence that you've come back to life.” “Your decisions do not have to be perfect. You just need to trust yourself enough to manage your life.” About Lora Lora Cheadle, JD, CHt is a former attorney turned betrayal recovery coach, hypnotherapist, and author who helps women rebuild their identity and reclaim their power after infidelity and profound emotional betrayal.

What if the boundaries you're avoiding are actually the blessings you're looking for? In this first message of "Boundaries and Blessings," Abel opens 1 Corinthians 10 to unpack five simple questions for making wise decisions - in money, sex, and power - from a place of true freedom. 1 Corinthians 10:23-31

Do you ever find yourself stuck in indecision, afraid of making the wrong choice, or spending way too much time trying to figure out the "perfect" decision? What if the thing slowing you down isn't the decision itself, but the way you're approaching it?   Join me this week as I share eight strategies successful people use when making decisions. You'll learn how to stop overthinking, make choices with less drama, avoid constantly revisiting decisions you've already made, and start making decisions based on the future you want to create instead of the past you're trying to recreate.   Watch the episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/q1p1ZmliisM   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://jodymoore.com/577   Follow me on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/jodymoorecoaching/

There is far more freedom in Christ than we could ever imagine and this broadcast gets into so many areas that seek to hinder the freedom and liberty that is available to us in Christ. This impacts our spiritual walk and our mental health in many ways. I talk about how this impacts decisions, calling […]

When I see yet another article or YouTube video promising to teach me how to "look expensive," I can't help but roll my eyes just a little. Not because I think looking high-end is a bad goal. I actually think that's what a lot of us are after! It's just that the advice all sounds the same:   Wear monochromatic outfits. Buy a crisp, white button-down shirt. Carry a structured handbag. Stick to classic neutrals.   These suggestions aren't necessarily wrong, but they're not teaching you what you actually need to know.    So today, I want to unpack what really creates that polished, pulled-together impression, even as the trends come and go, and where I'd encourage you to start if you want a wardrobe that looks more elevated and expensive.   Because after almost twenty years of helping women build wardrobes, and watching some women spend more money in one shopping trip than I've spent in the last decade combined, I don't think we're responding to price tags nearly as much as we think we are.   FREE 5-MIN PERSONAL STYLE QUIZ: https://herstylellc.com/quiz HER STYLE ON INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/heatherriggsstyle/ JOIN THE WAITLIST FOR HER STYLE COLLECTIVE: https://herstylellc.com/collective   Related Episodes: 311 – You Don't Need a Better Wardrobe — You Need a Better Way to Make Decisions 165 – Where to Shop and When to Invest In Higher Quality Pieces 72 – Create Better Outfits Using These 3 Design Principles

There's a cognitive trick our brains play whenever we face a hard question or a difficult decision: we quietly swap the hard thing for something easier to answer. It's called substitution, and we do it constantly — usually without noticing, and sometimes to our detriment. In today's episode, I make the case that you can take this same shortcut your brain already runs automatically and start using it intentionally to break decision paralysis and get moving. The Substitution Heuristic: Understand the mental move at the heart of this episode — when "How are you?" becomes "Is there anything I urgently need to say?", your brain isn't being lazy, it's compressing. It runs a quick calculation: what's the downside of the substitute? Usually it's low, so the shortcut holds. Code Review as Substitution: See why you almost never review a big PR line by line. "Was it tested? Does it follow our best practices? Does anything look obviously wrong?" are all stand-ins for the harder, mostly-unnecessary work of reading every line — and most of the time, they're enough. Performance Reviews Are a Best Guess: Recognize that your rubrics, metrics, and frameworks are themselves substitutes. You can't deterministically rate a person on a scale, so every measure you use is an approximation of an immeasurable question: how much value is this person really generating, and where are they headed? Turn the Trick Around on Purpose: Learn how to use substitution deliberately to defeat paralysis. Instead of "I'm deciding to leave my job and chase something new," substitute "I'm going to send an email." The weight of sending an email is tiny — and the dream job is just a series of small, iterative steps like that one. Unbundle Your Big Decisions: Notice how we fuse trivial mechanical actions with heavy imagined meaning. Merging a branch isn't "declaring this production-ready and putting my name on the line" — it's moving bits into the cloud. Separate the labeling from the action and the action gets a lot less intimidating. Lower Your Commitment Threshold: Swap "this code is great" for "I believe this code is shippable." Swap "this is the perfect hire" for "this is a good bet we can course-correct." The actions you take are identical — but the internal stakes, and the fear, drop dramatically. Favor Reversible Moves: We consistently overestimate the risk of acting and underestimate the risk of doing nothing. Most decisions aren't permanent — you can roll back the deploy, divert from a bad hire, find an exit path. Look for the way back, and the decision gets easier to make. Episode Homework Next time you feel a big decision looming, break it into its most fundamental pieces. Ask: what am I actually doing here? What are the physical actions, the words, the mechanical steps? What's the true worst-case downside — and do I really have to attach all of my worth to it? You're likely already substituting easier questions without realizing it. This week, try doing it on purpose.

In this episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, Brandon discusses how an abusive person can maintain control while appearing to let their partner make every decision. They refuse to participate, leave the planning and responsibility to someone else, and then criticize, blame, sulk, or become angry once a choice has been made. Brandon explains how this creates a no-win situation where the victim must constantly predict what the abuser wants, despite never being told what that is. Over time, the victim may take on the invisible labor of running the household, managing the finances, and preventing problems, while the abuser remains outside the process until there is something to criticize. The episode also explores how this pattern creates plausible deniability, keeps the victim focused on avoiding negative reactions, and slowly damages their confidence in their own judgment. What appears to be freedom can become a system of control built around blame, moving goalposts, and the fear of making the wrong choice.

Every marketer and business leader is talking about AI right now, but many companies are stuck. They've run the pilots, tried the tools and still can't turn any of it into real results.  In this episode, Tessa Burg talks with Dhiraj Rajaram, Founder and CEO of Mu Sigma, about why that gap between AI hype and AI impact exists. And what it actually takes to close it. Dhiraj breaks down some big ideas in an easy-to-follow—and very entertaining—way, like why every new technology creates a bubble and why AI is no different. He explains why most companies are trying to bolt AI onto old ways of working rather than rethink how decisions are made.  If you've ever wondered why your company's AI investment has not paid off the way you had hoped, this conversation will give you a new way to think about the problem. You'll walk away with practical language and a framework you can bring back to your own team along with a clearer picture of what needs to change before any new technology can really move the needle.  Leader Generation is hosted by Tessa Burg and brought to you by Mod Op.

What if the way through your current challenge isn't to try harder—but to listen to the element that's calling you?In this replay from a gathering in the Wild Wellness Women's Circle, I teach you the elemental framework drawn from the Taoist Five Element tradition and the Dagara cosmology of West Africa.

Do you ever find yourself second-guessing purchases, delaying decisions, or worrying that you'll make the wrong choice? In this episode, I'm looking at the mindset behind buying and decision-making, and the hidden patterns that can affect everything from everyday purchases to bigger investments.       I share some of the filters and questions I use when making purchases and explain how understanding your own patterns can make decision-making simpler and more intentional. We also look at the role of worthiness, regret, emotions, and self-trust, along with why getting clear on what works for you can transform the way you approach buying and investing.        By the end of this episode, you'll have a better understanding of the mindset behind confident decision-making and the practical tools that can support it. You'll be invited to examine your own habits, trust yourself more fully as a buyer, and make choices that align with your values, needs, and long-term goals.                 Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://maisiehill.com/284         Join us in the Powerful membership, or join the waitlist: https://maisiehill.com/powerful

She is the author of *The Power Hour* and *Decisions That Matter: How to Make Decisions in a World of Endless Choice*, where she introduces her proprietary six-rules framework for confident decision-making.   Quotes: "The small, low-stakes decisions in personal and professional life, they really, really matter. When I think about it in the business context, you know, the small, mundane decisions around ownership of certain things, around team capacity, around culture, around work, there are so many small, mundane things that, little by little, they really add up. They are what defines the success of the company." "It's more about uncovering what you already value and then questioning those. If you think about somebody in business, someone a professional leader who you really admire, someone who you aspire to be like, somebody whose work you find impressive and inspiring, what is it about them that you look up to, that you admire? Write the things down." "There is a direct correlation between health outcomes and stress and things like the inverse of happiness and joy. When we lack those things, we're more likely to suffer from things like chronic illness, heart disease, diabetes, strokes.

Ever wondered why your podcast gets lovely feedback but doesn't seem to be leading to more conversations or more of the right people reaching out?In this episode, I'm exploring what I believe is one of the biggest misunderstandings in podcasting: that your podcast's job is to generate enquiries. I don't think it is.Instead, I think its real role is something much quieter—and much more powerful.You'll hear:Why people don't make decisions because they've consumed enough information, but because they've gradually become more certain.The hidden role your podcast can play in reducing uncertainty for the right listeners.Why “providing value” and helping someone become ready to take the next step aren't always the same thing.One simple question to ask yourself before planning your next episode that could completely change the way you create content.If this episode left you thinking, “I genuinely don't know what uncertainty my listeners still have…” that's exactly the question the Decision Gap Diagnostic is designed to help you answer.Together, we'll look at the role your podcast is playing, where people might still be feeling uncertain, and what could help them leave with greater clarity and confidence.You can find all the details here: https://evergreenpodcaststrategy.co.uk/podcast-audit---Resources mentioned in this episodeYour Podcast Has A Role.

Weight Loss Strategies PodcastFIVE PRIMARY POINTS of the PODCASTVitality Is a Skill* The central lesson from a decade-long exploration of vitality is that vitality is not something we inherit or receive from others—it is a skill that can be learned and strengthened. Physical, mental, social, and spiritual well-being can all be intentionally improved through consistent practice and conscious effort.Time Is Your Most Valuable Vitality Asset* Time is a non-renewable resource and should be treated accordingly. Reducing complaints, gossip, distractions, and exposure to “energy vampires” frees up precious time and energy for meaningful pursuits and relationships. Vital people become ruthless about protecting their time.A Clear Purpose Is a Superpower* Defining a personal “peak purpose” provides direction, resilience, and clarity. Purpose serves as a decision-making compass, helping people focus their time, talents, and resources on what matters most while avoiding distractions and minimizing future regret.Make Decisions by Minimizing Future Regret* Most decisions are low-stakes and should be made quickly to avoid decision fatigue. For major decisions, focus on the option most aligned with your purpose and least likely to create future regret. Waiting for perfect information is rarely productive; thoughtful action is usually better than endless analysis.Discipline Creates Freedom* Discipline is portrayed as the pathway to achievement, resilience, and reduced regret. Daily habits such as exercise, meditation, learning, and embracing manageable discomfort build the capacity to stay calm amid uncertainty and transform challenges into opportunities. The ultimate message: discipline today creates freedom tomorrow.Key TakeawayVitality is a gift you give yourself. By mastering the skills of vitality, protecting your time, clarifying your purpose, making decisions that minimize regret, and practicing daily discipline, you can live with greater energy, meaning, performance, and fulfillment.Copyright, VyVerse LLC.

Two days of snow-specific breakout sessions, a facility tour, and content designed to drive real change at your business. Details coming soon. Joe and Carla Policastro, co-founders of Cycle CPA, join Phil to discuss why financial clarity is the foundation of a healthy snow and landscape business. From managing the cash flow challenges of seasonal work, to benchmarking your numbers against industry peers, to why your bank balance only tells part of the story, this husband and wife team shares how proactive accounting and advisory work help contractors make confident decisions instead of operating on gut feel. They also open up about the personal journeys that drive their mission to serve hardworking business owners in the green and snow industries. Key Learnings Your Bank Balance Is Only Part of the Picture - Checking your account daily tells you what you have right now, but future cash flow forecasting shows you what is coming and what to watch out for. Seasonal Businesses Must Build Cash Reserves - Snow and landscape operations need enough cash saved during busy months to carry them through slow seasons and economic downturns. Get Your Numbers Fast to Decide Fast - The earlier you receive accurate monthly financials, the quicker you can make confident business decisions. Benchmark Against Industry Peers, Not Just Last Year - Comparing your numbers to industry averages reveals problems like labor costs running higher than competitors, pointing you toward what needs fixing. Make Decisions on Data, Not Gut Feel - Business owners without timely, accurate information are operating in the dark, while knowing your numbers lets you plan the future with confidence. Track Labor Hours Against Each Job - In a labor-intensive industry, knowing how many hours are budgeted toward a specific job and tracking time against it is critical to protecting your margins.

At a certain point, decisions stop feeling manageable. You're not short on intelligence or strategy — you're spinning. The same questions keep resurfacing, the same decisions stay unresolved, and the cost of that indecision is quietly compounding in ways most entrepreneurs never stop to calculate. In this solo episode, I'm breaking down why really smart business owners struggle most with making decisions, what it's actually costing you, and how to get out of indecision quickly. We're covering seven specific patterns that keep experienced entrepreneurs stuck, plus research-backed tools that actually work (and it's not just more journaling or sleeping on it.) I'm also sharing some of my own decision-making struggles this year and announcing something exciting that I've been thinking about for a long time. If you've ever felt like indecision is slowing your business down more than any strategy gap ever could, this episode is going to reframe the whole thing! Timeline Highlights [02:57] Why indecision shows up across every program I'm running right now [04:45] The real cost of indecision beyond just a delayed decision [10:25] Cost #1: The cognitive drain of unresolved decisions and the open tab analogy [13:09] Cost #2: How waiting closes opportunities you didn't realize were closing [14:50] Cost #3: What chronic indecision does to your nervous system [16:24] Cost #4: The self-trust recession and why this is the most expensive long-term cost [19:30] Why staying stuck in indecision is still a decision — just one made by default [20:11] The 7 reasons smart entrepreneurs get stuck [20:56] Reason #1: You're solving the wrong problem entirely [27:46] Reason #2: An unrelated emotion is running the show [33:00] Why somatic work and EMDR can be part of the decision-making process [34:28] Reason #3: The decision has become a verdict on your identity [41:16] Reason #4: Trying to solve for every possible future before taking the first step [46:12] Reason #5: The real constraint hasn't been identified yet [52:13] Reason #6: Waiting for certainty that only comes after the decision is made [58:30] Reason #7: The decision requires a bigger identity than you've stepped into yet [1:04:47] How to identify which block you're actually in before choosing a tool [1:05:30] Tool #1: Making the case for the option you've been avoiding [1:07:24] Tool #2: Running a pre-mortem (Gary Klein's research) [1:10:32] Tool #3: Self-distancing — what would you tell a client in your situation?

Honestly, the smarter you are, the more you deal with indecision — because you see so many different angles and you think so much." "The cost of indecision, whether short-term or long-term, is almost guaranteed to be higher than the cost of making a decision that did not turn out the way you wanted." "Certainty is not a prerequisite for a good decision. It's the byproduct of one. You will never have certainty about how a decision is going to work out until you've made it and actually given it a run for its money." "Every time you can't pull the trigger, your brain files that as a data point to build the belief that you are someone who doesn't trust yourself." "Being a person who makes decisions and trusts your ability to figure things out is literally the most important skill that you can build as an entrepreneur."

There's always that one thing sitting in the background. The email draft, the decision that hasn't been made, the task that keeps getting pushed to later.It starts small, but it lingers.It shows up as mental noise, low-grade guilt, and a constant sense of “I need to get to that.” What looks like clutter is often just a delayed decision.This strategic journaling practice is a way to see what's actually being avoided, understand what's underneath it, and create a clear, simple path forward without waiting to feel ready.Journal PromptsWhat is the pile right now? The laundry, the inbox, the conversation that hasn't happened. Everything that feels like clutter, physical or mental. Write it all out.From that list, what is the one thing that hasn't been done? The one that brings up that low-grade guilt every time it comes to mind.What's the real reason it hasn't been done? Not “there hasn't been time.” Go beneath that. What feels like it might happen if a decision is made or action is taken? What feeling is being avoided?Is that fear actually true? What happens if it does come true? What happens if it doesn't?What is one small step that can be taken today? Not the whole solution. Just a tiny, doable action.Save this episode for the next time you catch yourself putting something off.Work with me:Breakthrough Intensive - You already know you should slow down, delegate more, stop overcommitting & be emotionally present.

Happy Administrative Professionals Week! As promised, we have double the content for you this week. On today's episode of REACH, we're joined by Nicky Christmas, Founder of EA Campus and a globally recognized voice in the executive support space. Nicky has built her career around elevating the role of the Executive Assistant, helping assistants move beyond task execution and into true strategic partnership. Through EA Campus, she's worked with thousands of EAs around the world, equipping them with the mindset, frameworks, and confidence to operate at a higher level.   What makes Nicky's perspective especially valuable is her focus on the realities of the role that aren't always formally taught. The nuance, the judgment calls, and the moments where there is no clear right answer. In this episode, we explore what it really means to operate in the gray. How to make decisions without a playbook, build trust with your executive, and confidently step into a more strategic, operator mindset. It's not too late to join Nicky in person or remotely. The EA Campus Conference is running this week, April 22–24, 2026, at ISH Venues in London and online.

Have you ever made a decision that felt right in the moment… but later, something about it didn't fully sit well with you? In this episode, we explore the gap between what feels comfortable now and what truly aligns with the life you're building. Using the idea of your “future self,” you'll learn how to move beyond reactive choices and make decisions with more clarity, intention, and self-trust. This is not about getting everything right. It's about becoming more aware of how you're choosing, and gently shifting toward what feels true over time. ✨ Want to go deeper? The Alignment Journal is a guided tool to help you reflect, gain clarity, and make more aligned decisions. Explore it here: https://bit.ly/4cg5wtT
