Over It And On With It

EP 487: How to Make a Decision from Faith and Not Fear with Morgan

Feb 5, 2025
31:07

In this heartfelt coaching session, Christine Hassler guides Morgan through an emotional crossroads: deciding whether to have another child. While Morgan has always envisioned a big family, fear stemming from a traumatic birth experience, postpartum depression, and complex family dynamics with her stepchildren has left her feeling uncertain.

This episode isn’t just about parenthood—it’s about the power of making choices from faith rather than fear. Christine helps Morgan shift from fear-based decision-making to a place of trust and possibility, offering insights that apply to anyone struggling with a big life decision.

 

Consider/Ask Yourself:

  • Are you facing a big decision but feel paralyzed by fear?
  • Do past traumas or difficult experiences influence your choices for the future?
  • Are you struggling with control and wanting certainty before making a move?
  • Do you tend to focus on the worst-case scenario instead of what’s truly possible?

 

Key Insights and A-HAs:

  • Fear-based decision-making limits our ability to embrace possibility and growth.
  • Our past does not have to dictate our future—we can learn from it instead of reliving it.
  • True empowerment comes from trusting that no matter what, we will be okay.
  • The need for control often stems from deeper fears, such as avoiding past pain or protecting loved ones.
  • Building a strong support system can help ease anxiety around major life transitions.

 

How to Get Over It & On With It:

  • Reframe your decision-making process by focusing on faith and trust rather than fear.
  • Acknowledge that uncertainty is a natural part of life and doesn’t mean disaster.
  • Build a solid support system (mentors, therapists, partners) to help guide you through transitions.
  • Recognize that sometimes the answer is “I don’t know yet,” and that’s okay.
  • Approach decisions from a place of curiosity, possibility, and inner wisdom rather than fear-based projections.
