Description

Resistance shows up in all of our lives—whether you’re a teen struggling with motivation, a young adult facing self-doubt, or a parent trying to connect with your child. In this episode of the Extraordinary Purpose Podcast, Erin and Chris share real stories, practical tools, and powerful rituals to help you and your family overcome resistance and move forward with confidence.


You’ll learn: 


- Why resistance is normal and how it secretly holds us back


- How to ground yourself with simple rituals like box breathing


- The power of Mel Robbins’ 5-Second Rule to take action in the moment


- Why celebrating small wins (and using the High-Five Habit) boosts confidence and motivation


- How parents can model resilience and create deeper connections with their teens and young adults


If you’ve ever felt your child slipping away—or if you’ve caught yourself putting off what matters most—this episode will give you hope, clarity, and the tools to move forward.
