32. How do you know you’re making the right choice? With Laura Berman Fortgang, as seen on Oprah

In today’s episode of The Women’s Vibrancy Code, Maraya is joined by internationally renowned coach, Laura Berman Fortgang, to dig into decision-making. With so many paths in life, so many options and obstacles, how can you really know if you’re making the right choice? For a lot of women – most women, in fact – decision-making is tied to identity, which is also tied to complicated life history. Your lived experiences of the past and present define not only how you identify and perceive yourself, but how you make decisions. As your life changes and takes new directions, it’s important to take a look at both past and present motivations to unpack decision-making. As a whole, the process of reinvention can be an intuitive one – we’re so often in our heads and answering to outside perceptions, that it’s important to get back to our basic concepts of self, wants and identities. In today’s episode, Maraya and Laura look at what drives decision-making, how to be more in tune with the right decisions, when to realign your choices and more.

IN THIS EPISODE:

  • [14:50] The three blocks to clarity
  • [18:21] How your life history affects your future decisions and self-perceptions

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

Decision-making is a complex process, influenced by external perceptions, lived experiences and self-given identities. What has motivated you in the past and in the present play a key part in making choices, as does the need to get to the heart of yourself, your identity outside of a career and your true wants.
