Decisions Unveiled: Exploring 'Would You Rather' Scenarios in Business
In this podcast episode, I explored decision-making and accountability in entrepreneurship through "Would You Rather," emphasizing the role of reflection in understanding values and fostering self-awareness. The episode covers a variety of hypothetical scenarios, such as choosing control over delegation in business, prioritizing time or money, and honesty over likability.
I highlighted the importance of timing in being honest, discussed speaking up versus staying silent, and concluded by emphasizing the ongoing value of reflection in guiding decision-making and personal growth. I also reflect on the challenges of balancing honesty and being liked, drawing from personal experiences, character traits, and the evolving perspective that comes with age, ultimately encouraging listeners to engage in these reflective exercises for aligning actions with personal values and making intentional decisions.

In this final episode of 2025, I take time to reflect and invite you to do the same. I talk about why setting goals still matters, even when we don’t hit them. A lot of us avoid goals because we’re tired of feeling disappointed, but real growth starts with honesty. I share a personal story about aiming for six figures in speaking and not reaching it, yet learning so much in the process. Progress doesn’t always look like success on paper, and that’s okay.

Being on the naughty list means habits that quietly hold us back.
