Learn how to FINALLY break your 'bad' habits! Like mindlessly scrolling when you should be present with your kids, or cleaning the house for the third time today instead of working on that side project you keep talking about.

Here's the thing nobody tells you: every "bad" habit you have is actually serving a purpose. That's why willpower alone never works.

In this 5-minute journaling session, I'll walk you through the exact 4-prompt framework that helped me break my Instagram scrolling habit (and discover what I was really searching for). Plus, I'm sharing a client example about compulsive cleaning that will make you rethink everything.

4 Breakthroughs You'll discover:
  • The hidden belief beneath every habit you want to break
  • Why your "bad" habits are actually protecting you
  • The 4 journal prompts that reveal what you're really gaining from unwanted behaviors
  • How to shift from self-sabotage to self-trust in real time

Perfect for you if:

✓ You scroll when you know you should be present

✓ You have habits that make you feel guilty or frustrated

✓ You've tried willpower but keep falling back into old patterns

✓ You're ready to understand the "why" behind what you do

Grab your journal and let's do this work together.
