If pros and cons lists worked, you wouldn’t still be Googling ‘Should I quit my job?’ at 2am.
And yet, how many of us have done exactly that? Scribbled a list, analysed every angle, researched the 52nd article on ‘should I stay or should I go’… and still, we don’t move.
That’s because your head brain, as brilliant as it is, sometimes works overtime to keep you ‘safe’, but that safety often equals stuckness. In this episode, we’re diving into why your logical mind isn’t always the best decision-maker, and what you can do instead.
You’ll hear real stories, a few of my own reflections - including how I recently realised dancing is one of my forgotten passions (and if anyone can get me a ticket to Strictly Come Dancing, or better yet, a place on the show, please call me immediately!), and simple tools from coaching and psychology to help you stop spiralling and start moving.
💡 In this episode:
Why your head brain loves logic (and why that’s not always helpful)
How to spot “fear dressed as logic” when it’s keeping you stuck
The Fact vs Story exercise to cut through overthinking
How Mel Robbins’ 5 Second Rule can help you act before fear talks you out of it
Why it’s not about making huge changes overnight - small acts of alignment matter most
☕ Grab your cuppa, get comfy, and let’s dive in.
