What Do I Know for Sure? Finding Your Path When You Feel Stuck with Rita Mercer

Episode 145
Rita Mercer, Wellness & Life Coach
What do you do when you don’t know what to do?
Whether you’re facing uncertainty in your career, relationships, health, finances, business, or simply wondering what’s next in life, it’s easy to get overwhelmed trying to figure out the whole path.
In this episode of The Daring Well Podcast, Rita explores a simple but powerful mindset shift: when you don’t know what to do, start with what you know.
You don’t need to have every answer, every step, or your entire future mapped out. Sometimes finding your purpose begins with getting quiet enough to hear what is already true within you.
Rita talks about uncovering the desires, gifts, values, and dreams that can become buried beneath fear, busyness, stress, perfectionism, and other people’s expectations. She also explores why change is a necessary part of growth and why the difficult experiences we’ve walked through don’t have to be wasted.
Most importantly, this episode offers a reminder that you will know as you go. Small, intentional steps can provide the clarity you need for the next step.
And when you’re feeling stuck, ask yourself:
What do I know for sure?
Then start there.
This episode also includes journaling prompts to help you reflect on your values, relationships, energy, desires, and what you may need to release or embrace in this season of life.
I created the Path to Purpose Journal to help you slow down, get quiet, and reconnect with what you already know within yourself.
