Are You Ruled By Your Head Or Your Heart?

Are you ruled by your head or your heart?

We all like to say we’re logical, but when our hearts start yelling, the brain usually backs off. Are you making choices that feel safe, or choices that feel right? This isn’t a pop quiz — it’s a pause-and-reflect moment. So… who’s actually running the show up there?

Does our thought processes change as we get older?

In my experience, I used to let my heart lead the way — didn’t matter if it got stomped on and kicked out to left field. As a lifelong people pleaser, I said and did whatever I had to just to keep the peace. Confrontation? Hard pass.

But now? I’m ruled by my head.
And honestly? That’s its own brand of chaos.
Because how do you “lead with logic” when your brain is in a constant fog, spiraling between anxiety, overthinking, and mental exhaustion?
