    Are you feeling stuck because you're afraid to make the "wrong" choice? Do you find yourself paralyzed by the need for certainty in your life decisions? What if embracing uncertainty could be the key to unlocking your true potential?

    • Finding joy and purpose beyond traditional success metrics

    Key Takeaways

    • Trusting your intuition is a skill that can be developed and strengthened
    • Embracing non-linear paths can lead to unexpected growth and fulfillment
    • Past regrets can be valuable data for making better future decisions
    • Consistency is only valuable if it's aligned with what truly brings you joy
