Summary
To move or not to move? That is the question for Tiffani. She is desperate to get out of her hometown in rural Oregon and find a place with affordable housing, better dating prospects, and a ballroom dance studio nearby… or at least a P.F. Chang's closer than a four hour drive away. The problem? Her preferred destination would mean moving clear across the country. On this episode of How To!, decision coach Nell McShane Wulfhart sits down with Tiffani and helps her make this life-changing decision in under 60 minutes. It's true! Nell shows us how we can all uncover what we truly want and then write ourselves permission slips to actually pursue it.

| 0:00.0 | Hi everyone, I'm Susie Weiss, and I've noticed there's just simply not enough podcasts in the world. So I'm launching my own. Let's go. Let's go, baby. Second Thought is a weekly show about pop culture. The stuff everyone's been binging, arguing about, obsessing over. Here's the thing about heated rivalry. I mean, even the most devoted swifties, I think we can agree, not our best work. We'll be hosting thoughtful conversations with culture's most important figures. Talk about genius. |
| 0:22.6 | Talk about generational talent. |
| 0:23.7 | Coming to headphones near you |
| 0:24.8 | on April 17th with a first guest you won't want to miss. Available wherever you get your podcasts. |
| 0:30.1 | Hello, it's Mike. Mike Peska, the host of how to, but before I was the host of how to, Charles |
| 0:35.9 | DeU Higg, our founder was the host. And then for a time, |
| 0:38.8 | Amanda Ripley and David Epstein, they were each the host. So I'm going to air a segment, |
| 0:45.7 | in fact, a whole show that took place during the Amanda Ripley period. And you know what else I'm |
| 0:50.2 | going to do? I'm going to have David Epstein on the gist next week, I think, I believe. |
| 0:56.5 | We're honoring our past, our ancestors, those who came before. This is a great episode. |
| 1:02.2 | I think you will enjoy. It is about making decisions, but making them quickly and well, or well enough to live with, or at least to tell yourself you're going to live |
| 1:12.2 | with. So please enjoy this encore edition, how to make a huge decision in 60 minutes or less. |
| 1:21.5 | I'm out of crossroads in my life, and I've been struggling with this decision for like a year. |
| 1:27.2 | One week, I decide, yes, I'm going to pull the trigger and do it. |
| 1:29.9 | And then the next week, I'm like, no, maybe I shouldn't think about it some more. |
| 1:33.4 | And I'm just really frustrated. |
| 1:40.4 | Welcome to how to. |
| 1:42.1 | I'm Amanda Ripley. |
| 1:44.5 | So for those of who you don't know, this is how this show works. Every week, we take one of your |
| 1:49.9 | hardest questions, something you're really struggling with, and then we scour the planet to find |
| 1:55.2 | the perfect person to workshop it alongside you. Yeah, so I'm Tiffany. |
| 2:02.5 | I'm really ready for a fresh start, and I want to start in a new place, |
