How often do you tell yourself "I can’t do this because I have to [do this other thing]”? E.g.: ❎ I can’t go to the gym because I HAVE to take this client call ❎ I can’t attend that wedding because I HAVE to work that weekend ❎ I can’t turn down that client because I HAVE to earn that money

But what if I told you that most of the things we feel obligated to do aren’t actually have to’s - they’re choices?

In this episode I’m diving into the mindset of obligation and how shifting it can completely change the game in your life and business.

Here’s what we’re exploring:

✨ A pivotal lesson that'll change how you see‘have to’s’ and obligations forever.

✨ Why most of what we believe we have to do is actually a choice - driven by our priorities and values.

✨ Real-life examples: prioritising client calls over workouts or PhD students considering whether to quit their PhD.

✨ How shifting from I have to → I choose to can lead to empowerment, better decision-making, clarity and so much more freedom.

When we recognize that we do have some agency - even if the options feel limited - we get to take back control over how we work and live.

🎧 Tune in now to start rethinking your have to’s and making more intentional, values-aligned decisions in your life and business.
