Ep 133: Stuck + Ambivalent: When You Cant Make a Decision or Let Go

Published: Aug. 4, 2020, midnight

b'One of the hardest things to do is give up or accept a loss, even if we are unhappy and have been for a really long time. This is for anyone stuck in ambivalence over a decision to create a change in their life. Sometimes this happens when you are in a long relationship and you feel you can\\u2019t leave it \\u2013 even though you are not happy and you don\\u2019t feel in love. Another common scenario is when you are in a field you don\\u2019t love but you have been to school for x number of years so you feel like you can\\u2019t leave now. It\\u2019s so scary to trust the feelings you have when you know they can sometimes change \\u2013 especially when weighing this against something that is valuable in the eyes of the world.
