Welcome to the show! If you're struggling with big decisions, you're in the right place. Today, I'm thrilled to have my long-time friend, Emily P. Freeman. She's a bestselling author and creator of The Next Right Thing podcast, and her wisdom on decision-making is incredible. Today, we are tackling how to make big decisions in life, and I think you’ll love it!
Emily P. Freeman is a bestselling author of five books. As a spiritual director, workshop leader, and host of The Next Right Thing podcast, her most important work is to help create soul space and offer spiritual companionship and discernment for anyone struggling with decision fatigue.
Emily's new book, How to Walk Into a Room, is about knowing when to stick with a situation and when it's time to move on. It's a guide for living a life where you thrive, not just get by. Let's dive in!

Favorite quotes:
(8:04) - “There are a lot of us who have found ourselves in a lot of rooms. Many of those rooms we have prayed for, longed for, and fought really hard to get into. And then something shifts. Maybe something shifts in the room or something shifts in us. It doesn’t have to mean something went wrong. It just means something has changed or is changing.”
(12:10) - “A lot of the tension we have when it comes to deciding to leave or stay it’s because readiness and timeliness don’t line up. So we have to make decisions the best we can with the information we currently have with where we are right now about what is my next right thing here.”
(15:57) - “Just because it is not the right room for me anymore doesn’t mean I chose wrong in the first place and doesn’t mean I made a big mistake. It just means I am growing, and changing, and life is different now.”
(21:59) - “When you leave a room you don’t walk into nothing. Something new is always waiting. And you don’t walk alone, God always goes with you.”
(22:22) - “It can be so scary to change your mind, to change your place, or change your way of being in a space but it is a healthy human rhythm.”
Coaching this week: Taking Risks (34:06)
This week, I urge you to take action on your dreams and goals because staying stagnant is the true risk in life. Don't be afraid of failure; use it as a stepping stone and keep pushing forward to live a full and vibrant life.
