Need to make a decision but not sure how to start? If you’ve ever felt stuck, second-guessed yourself, or wondered whether you’re making the right call, this episode might just help.
In this third Outlawbrary edition, Shayla and Kate dive into Greta Bradman’s inspiring and practical book What Matters to You — exploring the big question: how do we know how to make good decisions? Greta is a psychologist, a four-time number-one classical singer, and someone who knows how powerful values based decision making can be in creating a life that actually fits you.
Through honesty, humour, and real-life examples, Shayla and Kate unpack:
– How to recognise when “shoulds” are steering your choices – Why threat-based values can hijack your decision making without you noticing – The difference between chasing perfection and making progress – How imposter syndrome can keep you from making values aligned choices – Practical steps to bring your values into every decision you make
This isn’t just a book review. It’s a conversation about clarity — identifying your true values, spotting when fear is running the show, and building the confidence to make decisions you won’t regret.
In this episode: – Shayla’s battle with perfectionism while learning French – Kate’s reflections on ADHD, avoidance, and imposter syndrome – The pull between comfort and growth in decision making – Why knowing both your core values and threat-based values is a game changer – How to put values based decision making into practice every day
This episode is for you if: – You’ve ever wondered how do we know how to make good decisions? – You want tools for more confident, intentional decision making – You’re tired of letting fear or perfectionism dictate your path – You’re ready to make values based decisions that feel right for you
