Description

Big, scary decisions have a way of consuming our thoughts at 2 AM, when the house is quiet and our mind races through every possible scenario of a decision that has been weighing on our heart for months… or maybe even years.

Whether it's starting that business that keeps calling to you, leaving a soul-draining job, or making a major family move, we cycle through the same mental gymnastics - calculating risks, making endless pros and cons lists, hoping someone will just tell us what to do. But underneath all that mental churning lies a simple truth: the decision has already been made in our hearts.

Join me today as I share lessons from my family’s big, scary decision to move from Maryland to Colorado. These principles apply whether you're contemplating starting a business, changing careers, or making any leap that's been calling your name. You'll learn practical ways to move past the paralysis of overthinking and into aligned action that honors both your dreams and the reality that growth always involves loss.
