In this episode, I share the empowering concept of “test and find out”—a practical approach I use to overcome analysis paralysis and move beyond indecision. I'll walk you through how setting time-bound parameters allows you to make confident choices, let go of perfectionism, and reduce the pressure of getting it “right.”You'll hear real stories from my own life and my work with clients, as I show how experimenting with routines, habits, and even big decisions has brought more clarity and confidence. I encourage you to give yourself permission to try new things, knowing that nothing is permanent—and that it's okay to observe what works and what doesn't without judgment.Ready to break free from indecision? Pick something you've been overthinking, test it out for a set period, and see what happens! I'd love to hear about your experience—DM me on Instagram.
