Description

Tired of being stuck but not sure why nothing changes? This episode dives into the uncomfortable truth: you can't transform your life while protecting the patterns that sabotage it. We explore the psychology behind avoidance, excuse-making, and self-sabotage — and why radical accountability is the missing link between knowing what to do and actually doing it.

You'll learn:

*Why excuses feel safer than change (brain + behavior science) *How emotional discomfort drives rationalization 

*The real cost of protecting your limitations 

*How to spot when "self-compassion" has turned into self-sabotage

*Proven strategies to shift from passive insight to lasting action.

If you're ready to stop spinning your wheels, confront the stories that keep you stuck, and take ownership of your healing — this episode will hit hard (in the best way).
