A 4-lens framework to turn overwleming options into a confident choice. How to make impossible decisions fast.

Angela Shurina Season 2026

Overwhelm doesn’t come from having no options. It comes from having too many options, and feeling like the “right” one is always out of reach.  

Today we open up a grounded way to choose when the stakes are high and the clock is ticking, using a 4-lens framework that cuts through noise and surfaces what actually matters for the life you have right now.  

With that foundation in place, we walk through the 4 lenses: Values, Joy, Success, and Impact, borrowed from Decisions That Matter and refined through coaching experience.  

Values asks what truly matters this season, not in theory but in practice. Joy identifies the energy sources that keep you moving under pressure, enjoying the journey no matter what. Success demands a clear target. Impact clarifies who you want to reach and how your environment either enables or blocks that reach. By scoring options against these lenses, trade-offs stop feeling like failure and start looking like strategy.  

There’s no perfect world, only the world you’re building from where you stand.  

The easy choices are gone; what remains are the ones that shape trajectory. This conversation helps you act with alignment and peace of mind.  

Listen, apply the prompts, and pick the best available choice for who you’re becoming, not the imaginary version of you with endless time and resources.  

If this resonates, tap follow, share the episode with someone stuck at a crossroads, and leave a quick review so more people can find tools that move them forward.  

Your next aligned step starts here.
