Whether you're going through a big life change or you've simply experienced an internal "season shift," now is a great time to check in and update your Core Values.

The best questions I can offer to make this easy are:

• What do I want influencing my choices right now?
• Three months from now, what will I be happy having done / tended do / avoided?

In this episode, I walk you through my own conversation with myself (on a dog walk) during which I updated my Core Values — since I have a big move coming up and our family's starting a new chapter soon (with Kenny working out of town most of the year and me taking care of our 3 dogs and my business here!).

I remind you of the guidelines of crafting your Core Values, and let you know how to get the most out of them.

So you can make the best, most aligned, trustworthy choices going forward, and create the life you really want!

Is that a problem? Or is it, in fact, the plan?

This question sparked a huge aha for a client recently, and that's not the first time!

When we'd LOVE everything to get done with perfection, it's difficult to fully commit to a plan that leaves things undone or only allows for things to be "good enough."

So how do you fully commit to a plan, and execute it to success, when you don't totally love it?

When you can't plan on getting everything done, exactly how you want, it's vital to be able to commit to what you CAN do. Otherwise, you risk second-guessing and judging yourself daily — which both limits and discounts your progress.

Today's episode will help you get behind your plan — even if it includes putting something off 'til later, not spending as much time as you want to on something, and doing things "imperfectly"!

Sometimes, you get to map everything out, take all the time you want and still create big, beautiful change.

Other times — not so much.

Life surprises you, and all of a sudden, you're facing multiple opportunities to make BIG DECISIONS.

But how do you keep a clear head and trust your choices when things are moving fast, or you didn't plan for any of this!?

Well, speaking from real-time experience right now...(in about 72 hours, Kenny and I made big moves including the decision that he'd go do a show for 5 months two states away and I'd move our 3 dogs and whole household elsewhere in L.A...and all of this is meant to happen within about a week!)...

I'm sharing 6 tips that I'm employing:

1. Tune into your feelings (hint: emotions drive decisions!)
2. Clarify the decisions to be made
3. Allow yourself to make one decision (and "solve one problem") at a time
4. Ask for input strategically
5. Do not obligate yourself to keep in touch, get back to people quickly or keep all the plans you made before big decision time
6. Compartmentalize your schedule

Ready to make big decisions to create BIG CHANGE quickly?

Without excess guilt, stress or overwhelm?

Let's do this!

Listen for:

• How to clarify your priorities during transitions (even if you have tons of questions)

This conversation is for you if:

• You think of yourself as "creative"
• You absolutely do NOT think of yourself as "creative"
• You've struggled with the confidence to try something new
• You've changed careers and hesitated to own your new identity
• You'd love to create more novelty in your life

Paige Ray and I get into it, y'all!

Some highlights:

• "Don't let other people's doubt and projections decide what you do with your life because it'll go by faster than you think and — here's hoping you did what you wanted to do!"
• "Every act of imagination is a creative act...I can't think of anything more creative than making a decision because it requires you to use your imagination on the different paths that you can go down...Being creative is really sitting down and being willing to picture a different world or a different moment."
• "If you're ever worried about what other people think, or 'am I gonna flop on this,'...you might not have decided yet that you are simply the authority figure for your own life."

Welcome to “I’ll Think About It” Part 3 🙌

A top contributor to the habit of delaying decisions for "later" is our fear of how people will react to them - yikes!

Learning to effectively process this fear — and intentionally muster the courage to communicate your decisions — can save you YEARS of angst, inauthentic people-pleasing and time spent doing crap you wish you hadn't.

In this episode, you'll hear:

• How thinking about people's reactions like "the weather" can help you release responsibility for them
• A surprising upside to being honest (even if someone DOESN"T like your choice)
• And the best question to ask when you want the courage to overcome your fear and voice your decision
