114: Why Change Feels Hard and How to Break the Cycle

  • Summary

  • Today, we’re talking BIG change energy—why it’s so hard to break out of old habits, and what we can do to create the change we actually want. If you’ve ever wondered why it feels like an uphill battle to start (and keep) those life shifts going, this episode’s made for YOU!

    Here’s the deal: changing our ways isn’t just about commitment; it’s about how we see ourselves deep down. We get stuck because our brain wants to stay consistent with our self-image. (Ever found yourself saying, “Well, that’s just who I am”? 🧐) But here’s the kicker: You are under ZERO obligation to be the same person you were five minutes ago.

    Imagine this: every belief you’ve held, every habit, every “this is just who I am” moment—it’s all changeable. Yes, really! The episode dives into how we can reframe those thoughts and shift out of old cycles. Think of it as giving your brain (and your life!) a makeover.

    Here’s what’s coming your way:

    • The Commitment & Consistency Principle: Why we hold onto beliefs about ourselves and how they influence our actions. It’s WILD how this shapes us!
    • How small changes in our beliefs can unlock massive potential.
    • Real talk about cognitive dissonance—and why it might be why you feel stuck.
    • A pep talk (from me to you 🫶) to encourage a little healthy self-reflection on who YOU want to be moving forward.

    We’re all about breaking free and designing our future selves! So if you’re ready to stop unconsciously following the script and start owning your story, hit play now. And hey, let’s take on this challenge together—one new belief at a time.

    Can’t wait to hear how you’ll show up for your future self after this one. 🚀
