Clarity should bring peace… but what if it feels heavy instead? Learn what it’s really costing you — and how to respond with self-trust.
In this Part 5 of the Living By Your Standards series, host Chris Oh dives into the hidden emotional and psychological costs of clarity — the part of personal growth no one talks about.
Clarity is essential if you want to live by your own standards. But what happens after you know your truth? Why do guilt, fear, or tension show up when you’re finally clear on your values, decisions, or direction?
Whether you're going through a mindset shift, making big life changes, or stepping into new boundaries — this conversation will help you understand:
Why clarity often feels heavy, not peaceful
The 3 hidden costs of clarity: relational, identity, and comfort
How your brain resists uncertainty (even when it’s right for you)
How to move from awareness to aligned action with more self-trust
This is a powerful follow-up to our last episode on discernment — and a must-listen if you’ve ever thought, “I know what I want, but I don’t know how to live it yet.”
