"What do you want?”It sounds like a simple question, but sometimes it can stop us in our tracks.I remember moments where I felt frozen...like a rabbit in the headlights... not knowing what was really being asked of me, or what the other person truly wanted.Those situations can feel uncomfortable, even overwhelming. Do I answer honestly? Do I try to guess? Do I wait and hope for more clarity?In our upcoming session, we’ll share real stories of times we faced this exact uncertainty. More importantly, we’ll talk about how we worked through it — the small shifts in perspective and communication that helped us move forward with confidence.If you’ve ever found yourself caught between your own voice and someone else’s expectations, this conversation is for you.
