Ep. 284 - Why We Wait: 5 Steps to Transf...

Breakup Coach Dorothy
About this episode

That life-changing decision you've been putting off? It's not procrastination, it's fear masquerading as "I need more time." Dorothy reveals how she shattered months of paralyzing indecision about her housing situation in just 20 minutes with the right guidance. The real reason we wait until the final hour isn't lack of information, it's our invisible ceiling of comfort protecting us from the unknown. Every day you postpone is silently draining your potential, one "maybe tomorrow" at a time. In this episode, you'll get the exact 5-step framework to transform your fear into decisive action. That flutter in your stomach when facing a big decision isn't a warning, growth calling. This isn't just content; it's the permission slip you've been waiting for to finally make the choice your future self is begging you to make.
