Are you stuck in the “miserable maybes”?

In this episode of the Catholic Coaching Podcast, we continue our discernment series by making St. Ignatius of Loyola’s discernment process practical for real life decisions.

Whether you’re discerning:
•a career change
•your college major
•a relationship
•vocation
•a big next step in life
this episode will help you move from confusion toward clarity.

We cover:
•the 3 modes of discernment from St. Ignatius
•why most people get stuck in endless “discernment”
•how to establish holy indifference
•how to make a pros-and-cons list in a truly Ignatian way
•how to evaluate responsibilities, resources, talents, and desires
•how to use the “deathbed” and “judgment seat of Christ” perspectives
•how to know when a decision is confirmed

Discernment is not just about making a decision. It is about deepening your relationship with God and learning how to unite your will with His.

If you’ve been asking:
“What is God’s will for my life?”
this episode is for you.
