Stuck on a Big Life Decision? Here's a Better Way to Find Clarity with Mike Fink
Sometimes the hardest part of any life transition isn’t making the decision—it’s living with uncertainty while trying to decide.
In this thoughtful conversation, decision coach Mike Fink shares a practical framework for navigating life’s biggest crossroads. Although his work focuses on women considering divorce, the process applies to almost any major decision where the stakes feel high.
Together we explore:
- why our brains resist major change
- why pros-and-cons lists often fail
- how personal values influence every decision
- the difference between essential needs and optional preferences
- why visual thinking can create surprising clarity
- how uncertainty drains energy, focus, and wellbeing
- why clarity matters whether you stay or leave
Whether you’re questioning a relationship, retirement, a career change, a move, or another important life decision, this episode offers tools for thinking more clearly instead of simply thinking longer.
Sometimes peace comes not from having fewer choices—but from finally understanding what matters most.

About the guest: Mike Fink
Mike Fink is an author, coach, and inventor of a revolutionary clarity and decision-making process called The Decoding Grid™. This process is absolutely unique and is particularly powerful for making complex (i.e., with a large number of variables to consider) and high-stakes decisions (i.e., with a high cost of failure).
His work is currently focused on a unique niche: helping women considering divorce who are stuck in indecision about their marriage. He understands their specific challenges and guides them through his process so they make the Right Decision with their Head, Heart, and Gut aligned and move forward with their life with Confidence.
He has over 2 decades in the field of personal development:
- Master of Science in Psychology from Yale University
- NLP Master Practitioner and Trainer
- World-renowned coach and Personal Development Expert (his programs helped more than 110,000 people from 157 countries dramatically achieve goals they thought were unattainable).
- After a particularly painful turning point in his life, he developed The Decoding Grid™. Since 2021, he’s been on a new Life Mission to share it with the world.

Mike grew up in Europe and lived in 5 different countries (including the US) before moving to Canada, now his home.
When he’s not helping women make the Right Decision, he’s passionate about and an avid practitioner of many sports: snowboarding, kitesurfing, snowkiting, Jetsurfing, e-skateboarding, and wing foiling. If it slides or glides (preferably sideways), he’s probably doing it!
