72. What Happens When You Think You’re the Problem

Listen "72. What Happens When You Think You’re the Problem"

Episode Synopsis

Today I bust the quiet belief that you are a problem to be fixed. I show you why shame and perfectionism show up, why they keep you stuck, and how your survival brain prioritizes familiar over growth. What you learn:

Why the survival brain creates perfectionism, avoidance, overeating, overworking, and people pleasing as protection
How shame keeps you from looking at your patterns, and how awareness opens choice and peace
The difference between fixing yourself and understanding yourself, and why that shift creates momentum
Why, when you think you are the problem shame is the driver which causes you to feel like you have to run from yourself.



I go into detail why running towards yourself is the answer. YOU ARE THE SOLUTION.
