Summary
Every expansion or transformation begins with a decision. When I look back at the growth seasons I've had, there was always one specific energy at the center of it: the energy of decision. This energy is rooted in self-led commitment to a new identity backed by aligned action. Today, I walk you through how to step into and operate from this pure decision energy in order to create real momentum for yourself. I also break down the 2 biggest pitfalls we often mistake as productive energy, but in reality keep us stuck and playing small. If you're ready to take bold, immediate action and ground yourself in decision, this episode is for you!

| 1:16.6 | coming back to my decision. Who have I decided I'm going to be? What does it look like to act from |

| 2:10.4 | I would share with you because I know I cannot be the only one who's experiencing this. |
| 2:15.0 | And when I do look back at the trajectory of all of the bigger growth |
| 2:19.2 | seasons that I've had, there was one specific energy at the center of it. And then there's two |
| 2:25.7 | very specific energies that are kind of opposite ends of the spectrum that were consistently |
