Sitting in the unknown can spike anxiety, rumination, and second-guessing. If you’re overthinking a relationship, a move, a career pivot, or a decision you can’t “prove,” this solo episode will help you stay steady while you wait for clarity.
Nikki shares why uncertainty feels unbearable (especially after trauma), and why the messy middle is often where personal growth happens. You’ll learn how to hold mixed emotions without shutting down or over-controlling, how to separate gut wisdom from fear, and how to build capacity for ambiguity so you can make a kinder, clearer next step.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- A simple script for “I don’t know yet” (and how to mean it)
- How to tell intuition vs avoidance when anxiety is loud
- A practical way to tolerate uncertainty without decision fatigue
- Gentle boundaries with your inner fixer and people-pleaser
- How self-compassion helps you move through identity shift and change
Real tools for real life—because you can feel hope and fear at the same time.
