Have you ever made a big life decision that felt right in your heart - but wrong to everyone else?
In this coaching episode, Lisa Quait shares her own story of packing up her life to travel solo across Asia, and how that single choice shaped the woman she became. Inspired by another woman’s powerful act of leaving a note behind to start anew, Lisa explores the deep guilt, courage, and clarity that come from choosing yourself - even when it means saying no to what others expect.
💬 You’ll learn:
• Why guilt often follows our most authentic choices
• How to reframe guilt into strength
• How to trust your instincts and make decisions for you
• A simple 3-step reflection to start choosing yourself again
👉 Take the New ERA Quiz and download Lisa’s free workbook in the show notes to uncover what’s holding you back from saying yes to the life you really want.
🎧 Real Women’s Stories is a space for women to reconnect with their truth, share their journeys, and rediscover the power of their own voice.
