The Decision-Making Skill They Don’t Teach in Med School
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
You’ve spent years learning how to make the “right” clinical decision. You come from a world with protocols, gold standards, and someone above you to blame when things go sideways. Then you start a business and realize it’s just you, your brain, and a hundred decisions a week you can’t outsource…
In this episode, I talk about why there is no “right way” once you’re the boss of yourself, and why trusting your internal compass matters more than hunting for the perfect strategy.
Featuring Martha Beck, a recurring dream featuring a beaver, a surprise cathedral window, and one very useful question: does this choice feel warmer… or colder? Trust me… it’ll make sense when you press play!
