Your friend gave you her opinion.

Then you asked another friend.

Your spouse weighed in.

Your therapist helped you process it.

You journaled.

You prayed.

You meditated.

You pulled the cards.

And somehow... you still need one more opinion. 😂

But are you really looking for wisdom?

Or are you hoping somebody will finally give you the answer you already want?

In this episode of The Healing Poetic Podcast, Keya explores the difference between seeking information, wisdom, permission, and avoidance.

Because self-trust doesn’t mean refusing advice or believing we always know best. Wise counsel matters. Expertise matters. Therapy matters. Perspective matters.

But there comes a point when gathering more opinions becomes another way of postponing a decision we already know we need to make.

We talk about intuition versus fear, why ownership can feel scary, how other people’s experiences influence the advice they give us, and why journaling can help us hear our own voice before everybody else enters the conversation.

And perhaps the most important question:

Am I actually confused—or am I uncomfortable with what I already know?

Listen. Learn. Ask questions. Seek wise counsel.

But don't disappear from the decision-making process.

Your life still needs your voice in it.
