Making decisions still feels hard. Not the everyday decisions like do I want my coffee black or with milk (although sometimes even that sends Lara down a rabbit hole). The decisions we still struggle with are the ones that feel bigger. Like do I want to take on this project? Or do I want to move?
In 2020, we heard a lot about “decision fatigue.” Our brains were tired because of the constant tiny decisions we had to make about safety. But after two years, shouldn't we be better at making choices after all that practice?
Kimberly Diggles says no.
In this week's episode, Lara and Kimberly talk about why decisions still feel hard––and the best way to think about making decisions now, even when the world feels like it’s on fire.
Kimberly Diggles is a licensed therapist and mental health expert living in Long Beach and working throughout California. Before she was a therapist, she was a person. A friend. A sister. A daughter. A partner. Rather than use personal challenges as a weakness and an excuse to withdraw from relationships, Kimberly strives to accept struggle as the catalyst that can bring her into closer connection with others.
