In this episode, we explore what it really means to generate choice—and why it’s often harder than it sounds. We dig into the invisible memetic scripts that make us believe we don’t have a choice (“It’s just the way things are,” “I didn’t get to choose”), and show how autopilot behavior, judgment, and inherited expectations limit our agency. Judgment, in particular, becomes a clue—often signaling grief over choices we didn’t know we had. We talk about how to slow down, become more aware, and start practicing small, daily acts of conscious choice. Rather than a one-time decision, choice is framed as a skill we can strengthen with practice. Ultimately, reclaiming our ability to choose helps us build authentic connection and true belonging—not just compliance or performance.
