Life can become complicated and confusing sometimes. No matter our age or situation, making life decisions may feel overwhelming. We wonder what we want, where we're going, and whether it's even worth trying. There may be one side of you that is motivated and confident to make a change and another side that's hesitant and anxious. It becomes an internal battle that's emotionally exhausting. Maybe this has happened to you. It happens to everyone eventually as we go through the many stages of life. Having someone to talk to can be helpful in sorting out what you really want and what's in the way.
