    The Next Right Thing For People Pleasers (Best of)
    Jun 24 2025
    This summer, I'm re-airing some of my favorite decision making episodes. This one originally aired on May 4, 2021. We all have the capacity to live our lives in such a way that we forget to remember who we are, we hurry through our minutes looking for the next important thing, we are overly attentive to what people think of us, and we are addicted to our own press. So what is the next right thing for those of us who are so aware of other people’s opinions that we have a hard time knowing our own, making wise decisions, or doing our next right thing in love? Listen in.
