Am I doing it right?

from Permission Slip-Ups · host David Cooke

One of the quiet questions many of us carry through life is surprisingly simple: Am I doing it right? In this episode of Permission Slip-ups, Kate and Dave explore the pressure we place on ourselves to get life "right" — to follow the correct path, make the correct decisions, and somehow meet an invisible standard we believe exists. Together, they unpack where this mindset comes from and how it quietly shapes the way we live, the risks we avoid, and the choices we second-guess. Through personal reflection and conversation, Kate and Dave challenge the idea that life has a single correct formula. Instead, they explore what might happen if we loosen our grip on being "right" and begin trusting our own experience, curiosity, and instincts. Because sometimes the most freeing permission slip we can give ourselves is letting go of the idea that there is only one right way to live.
