Earlier this week, we shared part one of this conversation, all about how to make BOLD decisions. I don’t know about you but I really love this time of year. The kids are headed back to school, the weather is (eventually) getting cooler and cooler, and I can kickstart my weekly routine with a little bit of electric energy to shake things up a bit. It’s a time of new beginnings and fresh starts, which most times, begins with me making a BOLD decision… saying with my outside voice what I want, need, and desire. And then, doing something about it. I think that’s at the heart of what Josefine and I are talking about here.
Now, if you haven’t heard part one, go back and listen to that one first. But if you’re ready to continue on, let’s pick back up here with my conversation with Josefine Wanner as she simplifies how to make BOLD decisions.
It’s time to simplify… Here’s how.

My special guest today is Josefine Wanner and she’s simplifying how to make BOLD decisions.
We tackle and simplify all aspects of it, including:
- Why she believes that some people (women in particular) stumble on making bold decisions in their careers and what the first step is to change that immediately
- How to begin to clarify and identify your core values
- What role self-confidence plays in being a more bold decision maker and how to build yours up once again
- How to get buy-in from your family and the key people in your life on the decisions that you are considering making, professionally
- …and ultimately what the 4 core steps are that you need to implement in order to show up for yourself:
- Commit to yourself being important
- Block out the “me time” in your agenda
- Add recurring “emergency time” blocks in
- Be kind to yourself
All this month, we’re focused on the theme of “Discernment” – which again, feels well timed given this is the season when many parents have children heading back to school and getting back into a new rhythm of life. It’s like the new year all over again, a fresh start and a new beginning.
1000 daily choices is how you begin a brand new life.
We will explore what that means on every level this month, both personally and professionally.
