E07 - The Ghost of Self-Sabotage

Join us for this intimate episode about self-sabotage. Ever known exactly what you should do, but then do the exact opposite? It’s that nagging voice that invites you for just one more slice of cake or that extra hour in bed.

We dive into the concept of “buffering” — the habits we form to mute our life’s alarms, from endless scrolling to unnecessary tasks. Drawing from personal experiences and insights, I share four transformative questions to guide self-reflection and potentially change the course of your journey. Grab your favorite drink, imagine we’re on a cozy couch together, and let’s tackle this challenge head-on. Remember, it all begins with a single thought. Stay tuned, and stay well.

The four questions mentioned in this episode:

1. Why am I choosing comfort over progress?
2. What am I afraid of? What part of reaching your goal may feel like a threat?
3. What would your future healthiest self do today? (Or what would she not do?)
4. Who is calling the shots here?
