I break down the real reason you keep falling into the same self-sabotage patterns - and it's not what you think. I explain how your brain is wired to keep you stuck in familiar territory, and why doing more is never the answer. The key to getting unstuck isn't adding something new - it's having the courage to let go of the belief, behavior, or story that's been keeping you in place. I also share the one motto I've used for years that completely changed how I relate to change: I let change change me.
