E26: Do you usually say 'yes' or 'no' to new opportunities? Do you usually use your 'gut' or 'mind' to make decisions?

We discuss our personal process for decision making, and whether we use our 'gut' or our 'mind' to help us make decisions, as well as touch on 'yes' or 'no' in relation to setting boundaries, and whether saying 'yes' or 'no' are actually two forms of helping you take action towards your goals. ✨ Whether you're a coach, just curious, or navigating your own growth journey, there’s something in here for you 🙂 🎧 Tune in: * To help you reflect on whether you usually say 'yes' or 'no' to new opportunities and whether its benefitting you * To help you reflect on whether you usually use your 'gut' or 'mind' to make decisions and whether that is serving you well Let’s discuss, reflect, and grow together ✨ #thegrowingpair #lifecoaching #podcasts #selfcare #personalgrowth #selfdevelopment #gutfeeling #yesorno Check our website: https://thegrowingpair.com/ Isaac Goldfarb - Matara Life Coaching https://mataralifecoaching.com Email: mataralifecoaching@gmail.com Instagram: @mataralifecoaching James Edge - V-V Edge Coaching https://v-vedgecoaching.co.uk/ Instagram & TikTok: @vvedgecoaching Email: james@v-vedgecoaching.co.uk
