184: Are You on the Wrong Path?

184: Are You on the Wrong Path?

Author: Simona Costantini June 6, 2023 Duration: 17:49

Have you been struggling with the idea of being on the wrong path? It’s something that’s very natural to wonder about, and easy to go down a rabbit hole of second-guessing our choices. 

In this episode, I share with you how I evaluate the choices I have made and the very real process of uncovering new revelations that change old beliefs I may have had about myself, leading to the realization my old choices may no longer be in alignment. 

If you’ve been finding yourself in a similar situation, I want you to find comfort in knowing you are not alone and that nothing is set in stone, and everything can still be changed even when it seems impossible.

 

I’m going to get into:

  • [1:45] Am I on the wrong path?

  • [2:06] Making the most aligned choice

  • [3:45] What are we basing our choices on?

  • [7:35] So what do you do with this awareness you’ve cultivated?

  • [8:21] Making choices from fear, lack, and feeling selfish about our choices.

  • [12:54] Finally feeling acceptance and then asking for signs.

  • [15:28] The value of relationships that affirm us in our choices
