Episode #11 - Why "I Don't Know" Might Be the Best Answer You've Ever Given Yourself

from Your Joyful Life Podcast · host Michael Fall and Evan Wainberg

We explore two ideas that changed how we think about uncertainty. The first comes from coach Michael Neill: when you're facing a decision, there are only three possible answers - yes, no, or I don't know. But here's the part that stopped us in our tracks: "I don't know" is a complete statement. It's not a failure or a call to action. Just… a place to be.From there, we get into why we're so afraid of not knowing - how school, society, and social media have conditioned us to always have an answer - and what opens up when we stop forcing one.The second idea builds on the first: instead of trying to figure everything out, ask "what can I learn?" or even "what is there for me to notice?" It's a shift from solving to listening - and it opens us up to new possibilities.
