This Isn't Working

15: Whose Life ARE You Living?


Listen Later

Today we dive into a subtle but powerful dynamic that shapes so many of our choices: living according to other people’s needs, expectations, or comfort—often at the expense of our own desires. We say we want something, but we hesitate, delay, or quietly wait for someone else’s permission before moving forward.

Which begs the question:


WHOSE LIFE ARE YOU LIVING???


Through personal stories, we'll explore how this pattern shows up in everyday life, how it affects intimacy and clarity in our relationships, and what we can do to start living more honestly and intentionally.


You’ll walk away with thought-provoking questions to ask yourself and a clearer sense of what’s really been driving your decisions—and whether it’s time to change course.


What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
  • How we subtly give our power away when making personal decisions


  • Why waiting for permission can lead to disconnection and resentment


  • The difference between compromise and self-abandonment


  • A story from Meg’s own life that reveals the cost of not being clear


  • Questions to help you re-align with your truth


Ask Yourself:
  • Whose comfort am I prioritizing?


  • Is the thing I keep postponing really about timing—or am I afraid of someone else’s reaction?


  • What is my behavior actually communicating?


  • Is this the life I want—or the life I think I should want?
