What if the secret to making better decisions isn't about being right, but about trusting yourself to handle whatever happens next? This week on The Sales Maven Show, Nikki Rausch talks with Danielle Baily, an efficiency and implementation consultant, Lean Six Sigma black belt, and consulting hypnotist who helps business owners find confidence through clarity and structure. Together, they explore how learning to trust yourself can transform the way you make decisions in business and life. Danielle shares how chasing the "right" decision often leads to stress, self-doubt, and overthinking. Instead, she focuses on what's useful in the moment. She explains how identity, fear of judgment, and outside expectations can make choices harder, and how separating who you are from the results you get can make decision-making easier. Her "knee-jerk no" strategy is a simple but powerful way to create boundaries and make sure every yes aligns with your long-term goals. The conversation also dives into decision fatigue and practical ways to prevent it. Danielle and Nikki discuss batching simple tasks, building consistent routines, and keeping your circle of advisors small so you can stay focused. They remind listeners that you don't need every answer before you act. Confidence grows when you make a choice, learn from it, and give yourself permission to adjust along the way. If you've ever found yourself frozen by indecision or stuck waiting for the perfect moment, this episode will help you trust yourself, simplify your process, and take the next step forward.
