Purposeful Impact with Crystal Wagner

Do you want to pursue the dream God placed on your heart and serve your family well?

It is possible!

Welcome to the Purposeful Impact podcast!

On this podcast, you’ll find permission to pursue your dreams your way, practical solutions to challenges you might face, and tips for becoming a more influential leader. (And yes, you are a leader!)

If you‘re ready to rediscover who you are, feel more fulfilled, and pursue your dreams as you care for your family, you‘re in the right place!

Hey, I‘m Crystal Wagner. I'm a life, leadership, and homeschool coach, and it's my mission to help women pursue their God-inspired dreams.

I know what it's like to want to use your gifts and talents in your home and beyond. If you're like me, you recognize your influence and impact on your children, but you also want to pursue a God-given dream and have an impact beyond your home too. As a coach, I help you rediscover and embrace who you are and clarify your vision so you can pursue your dreams while serving your family well.

When you live a life of purposeful impact, you will know who you are, what renews your energy, and what brings you joy. You can cultivate an atmosphere where your whole family can thrive, which will also help you juggle your many responsibilities and avoid burnout and an identity crisis when your children graduate. As you clarify your vision and live out your God-ordained dreams, you will feel more fulfilled and have a greater impact in your home and beyond.

155: Do you feel like a deer in the headlights when faced with a decision? How to use an SOP to reduce decision fatigue.

October 24, 2023 • Crystal Wagner • Episode 155

Do you suffer from decision fatigue? Decision fatigue is when you become physically, mentally, and emotionally depleted when you have to make too many decisions. Some sources have suggested we make an average of 35,000 decisions a day. No wonder moms suffer from this condition! Add, on top of the normal decisions we make, our children's unending requests that we have to decide how to respond!

Even if you weren't familiar with the term "decision fatigue," I bet you have experienced it. Common symptoms include:

Procrastinating because you don't know what to do next.
Not knowing how to respond to someone when they ask what you want.
Not knowing how to respond when your child asks for something or to do something.
Feeling brain dead or having brain fog.
You could even have physical symptoms such as headaches, eye twitches, and nausea.

What can we do to overcome decision fatigue? In this episode, we'll discuss how to use an SOP to reduce your decision fatigue.
