162: Becoming More Decisive

Dr. Marie Murphy has discussed at length the kind of decisions you need to make in resolving or continuing an infidelity situation and what you need to factor in to make the decision that’s right for you.

Dr. Marie Murphy discusses how humans tend to stall making decisions under the guise of considering their options, how you may have started to identify as someone who is indecisive, and how to start becoming more decisive.
