Description

Have you ever noticed how easy it is to slip into that “why does this keep happening to me?” mindset without even realizing it? One annoying moment, one tough conversation, and suddenly the whole day feels like it’s out to get you. Trust me, I’ve been there more times than I care to admit. In this episode, I'm unpacking how victim mode quietly shows up in our thoughts, and how to recognize it before it takes over. 



Rooting for you,

Jessica
