There has never been more information telling us how to live our lives—and somehow, it’s become harder to hear ourselves. Between social media experts, personal development, endless advice, courses, certifications, podcasts, and the pressure to constantly improve ourselves, it’s easy to believe that someone else must have the answer we’re missing. But what happens when learning more becomes another way of avoiding trusting what we already know? In this episode, I’m sharing a recent moment when I almost signed up for yet another course before realizing I didn’t actually need more information—I was looking for permission. We’ll talk about why we outsource our decisions, why self-trust can feel so uncomfortable, and how understanding your body, brain, and behavior can help you come back to the person who knows you better than anyone else: you.
