Episode #290: Change Your Mind — Why ‘Trying On’ Options Helps You Make Wise Decisions

When you feel like you’re always second-guessing yourself, it’s tempting to idealize being a “one-and-done” decision-maker! But what if changing your mind isn’t a sign of weakness but actually a sign of wisdom? In this episode, I’m tackling the myth that Highly Sensitive Persons are “wishy-washy.” You’ll learn how “trying on” different options can free you from the guilt of sunk costs, help you honor your real-time needs, and lead to better choices in the long-run. You’ll also gain permission to update out-dated decisions, while embracing God’s grace as you grow. Changing your mind does NOT make you flaky. So often, it simply means that you’re paying attention!
