224 When self improvement becomes unconscious self sabotage (and how to break the cycle)


Listen Later

What if your drive for self improvement - and how to be more consistent, disciplined and in control - is actually the very thing holding you back? 

In this episode, I’m breaking down unconscious self-sabotage: the sneaky ways our best intentions can quietly undermine our wellbeing and how these patterns keep you stuck in the same cycle, no matter how hard you try.

You’ll learn how to spot when your self-improvement efforts are coming from fear rather than trust, how to build self compassion and stop being so hard on yourself and how to shift into a softer, more sustainable way of growth

Key Takeaways

  • Self-sabotage often happens beneath awareness - not from laziness, but from fear.
  • The problem isn’t the goal or strategy, it’s how you’re approaching it.
  • How replacing control with curiosity opens up flexibility, trust and freedom…and improves your self worth and self esteem
  • Why guilt and perfectionism turn small stumbles into “failures,” and how to stop that cycle.
  • Why real self-improvement requires softness and how you can be your best teacher
