Decisions get easier because we are no longer second-guessing ourselves, or trying to read the room to figure out who to be. The more we tune into who we are, we are able to be all of us. Boundaries get so much easier. It is more challenging to protect ourselves, when we are unaware of what drains us in the first place. Once we become aware and rooted, we can shift.
