A friend read me one line from a Substack and I felt completely exposed. "Casual indifference protects you from joy."  This episode is about the sneaky way we soften our excitement, downplay our dreams, and act like we don't care, just in case someone doesn't respond the way we hope.  It feels like self-protection. It's actually self-abandonment.  Question to carry into your day: Where are you still playing it cool when what you really want is to go all in?  Ready to do this work with real support? Book a strategy call and let's talk about whether the Stop Starting Over System is right for you. <a href= "https://link.mollycarmel.com/widget/bookings/mc-discoverycall-organic"> https://link.mollycarmel.com/widget/bookings/mc-discoverycall-organic</a>  Let's Stay Connected:  <ul> <li dir="ltr" role="presentation">Subscribe on <a href= "https://www.youtube.com/@mollycarmel">YouTube</a></li> <li dir="ltr" role="presentation">Instagram: @<a href= "http://www.instagram.com/mollycarmel">mollycarmel</a></li> <li dir="ltr" role="presentation">Check out my Pocket Sages on my <a href="https://www.amazon.com/shop/influencer-a577d829">Amazon Storefront</a></li> </ul> An <a href= "https://podcasts.apple.com/us/channel/operation-podcast/id6443662913?hasPaidContent=false"> Operation Podcast</a> production | <a href= "http://www.instagram.com/operationpodcast">@OperationPodcast</a>

Ep. 193 | Why You Keep Rethinking a Decision You Already Made

Welcome to The Daily Ascent. I'm Molly Carmel — and this is the podcast I always wished existed: a bite-sized, on-the-ground spiritual note that can shift your thinking and your outlook on life. Because sometimes, that's all it takes — a small shift in what we choose to believe — to make the day a little better, and to make us a little more awake, alive… and ascending.

Each weekday, we climb together — rising above the noise, finding the flow, and getting grounded in what really matters so you can live your day with more meaning, connection, and ease.
