What if you didn’t have to choose between trusting an expert and trusting yourself? In this solo episode, Maryanne unpacks how to find the right guide to navigate uncertainty—without ever giving up your agency, autonomy, or judgment.
Key Takeaways:
“A poor guide says, Here's what you should do. I want you to do this. A great guide says, Here's what I know.”
“We don't remove the uncertainty; we work to navigate it together.”
“Sometimes the obstacle isn't the situation; it's the story we've attached to the situation.”
