Are you stuck at "better"?

Maybe life is okay. Maybe it's even good — especially compared to where you used to be. But what if you're unknowingly camping out at 60% of your potential… and calling it enough?

In this episode, I unpack what happens when progress becomes a plateau, and fear of restriction keeps us from discovering what's truly possible.

We'll explore:

  • Why comfort can quietly block you from greatness

  • The real reason your next level feels "too hard"

  • How our brains lie to us about sacrifice and deprivation

  • A client story that reveals the hidden trap of "better"

  • What to do if your "why" feels shallow or fake

If you've ever thought, "I've come so far… but I'm scared to go further," this one's for you.

šŸ”„ What You'll Learn
  • Why "better" isn't the finish line — and how it becomes a subtle trap

  • What to do if you're afraid of giving up your current comforts

  • How to reframe restriction, routine, and what you think you're "missing out" on

  • What it looks like to stop avoiding possibility

  • Why you don't need a big, dramatic "why" to change — and what to focus on instead

  • How to win the next hour, not just the next month
