Summary

Here’s the deal: you reserve the right to change your mind at any time, for any reason.

Why is that important? Because if you’re anything like me, you put a lot of pressure on yourself to make the “right” choice.

And sometimes you may even get stuck or frozen in indecision, because you’re too afraid of getting it ‘wrong’. There’s no judgment here. I’ve struggled with this all my life.

Whether it’s coming from your inner perfectionist, pressures from society's expectations, or even friends and family, find out why it’s okay to get it ‘wrong’.

And why we need to allow ourselves grace and space to mess up.

0:19.0	Joe and before we dive in I just wanted to give you a quick heads up.
0:24.0	So Michelle created this podcast episode originally as a video.
0:30.3	So the audio sounds just a little bit spacier than normal.
0:35.0	So bear with her.
0:37.0	And if you'd prefer to just watch the video,

0:48.0	So, I just went on a girls trip a couple weeks ago just for a couple nights and you know how you go on a girls trip and you know how you go on a girls trip and you talk about family and you talk about your feelings towards, you know, in-laws or friendships or situations that are going on in your life and you feel
1:17.0	really passionate and opinionated about it and you just need to vent and get it
1:21.1	all out, that's what I do with my girlfriends. It's kind of like
1:25.9	our safe spot where we can say anything and we have the same rule that we have in our
1:32.0	community which is no judgment.
1:34.0	So we've created this really safe spot which took a couple years for us to do but
1:39.0	when we go on a girls trip, I'm the one who kind of lays out the rules.
1:48.2	I know that sounds so bossy you guys, but I'm always thinking about the dynamics of women and like how to improve
1:56.1	relationships with women and one of the things this girls trip there was only three of us and so sometimes three girls can be
2:07.2	dangerous because you run the risk of having two girls talk about the third one behind their back. So I was at the
2:16.3	beginning of the trip being a little bossy pants and saying, okay, we're going to set a rule up that we're not going to talk about one
