How Do You Make Decisions?

Decision-making—some people thrive on it, while others feel like they’re drowning in a sea of what-ifs. When it comes to running a business (or just life in general), decisions are constant. Some are small, like what to eat for lunch. Others feel massive, like pivoting your entire business model or investing in a new program.

So, how do YOU make decisions?

The Many Styles of Decision-Making

Let’s be honest—decision-making isn’t a one-size-fits-all process. Some people:

🔹 Overanalyze everything – Researching, making pros and cons lists, and then… still second-guessing.

🔹 Follow their gut – Instinctively knowing what to do and trusting that inner nudge.

🔹 Ask for outside opinions – Seeking guidance from mentors, friends, spirit guides, or even flipping a coin.

🔹 Avoid deciding at all – Hoping the Universe will make the choice for them. (Spoiler: not choosing is still a choice.)

My Process for Making Aligned Decisions

For me, decision-making is a mix of intuition, practicality, and energy alignment. Here’s what I do when I’m faced with a big choice:

  1. Check in with my energy. Does this decision feel light and expansive or heavy and draining? If it feels like pushing a boulder uphill, I pause.
  2. Consult my spirit team. I’ll meditate, pull some oracle cards, or just sit in stillness to see what messages come through.
  3. Look at the practical side. Will this decision support my core values (freedom, fun, and family)? Will it move my business forward in a way that feels right?
  4. Listen to my body. If thinking about a decision gives me a headache or tightens my chest, that’s a clue. If I feel excited and open, that’s another.
  5. Make the choice and trust it. I remind myself there’s no “wrong” decision—only experiences and learning opportunities.
