Stop Overthinking: When You Don’t Have Enough Information to Decide - Ep. 280

Send us Fan Mail This week, we dig into the overwhelm of decision-making in a world packed with endless information and opinions. Have you ever found yourself paralyzed by choices, unsure if you’re picking the right path or just following what others expect? I share a late-night conversation with my 19-year-old son, as he wrestles with whether to pursue art, psychology, or sign language, all while everyone—from managers to friends—weighs in with their own advice. You’ll get a front-row seat as we unpack the real reason so many of us stay stuck: We focus on trying to make the “perfect” decision when, in reality, sometimes there is no decision to make just yet. I’ll walk you through the powerful questions I asked my son (and use with clients) to help cut through the noise and clarify what really matters. The biggest lesson? You don’t need to have the full picture or all the answers to start making progress toward the life you want. If you’ve been feeling pressure to choose right now or are lost in a sea of options, this episode will show you how to take meaningful steps forward, even when certainty is out of reach.
