231. Why Believing You're "Starting Over Again" Keeps You Stuck


Listen Later

Have you ever caught yourself thinking, "I can't believe I'm back here again" or "I should be further along by now"? This belief that we're somehow starting over or regressing in our progress is one of the most common and damaging thoughts I hear from coaches. It's a sneaky mindset trap that not only makes you feel terrible but actively prevents you from solving the very problems you're facing.

 

Today I'm breaking down why this belief is so harmful, what's actually happening instead, and how to shift your perspective when these thoughts arise. I'll share real examples from my clients, hypothetical scenarios you might encounter with your own clients, and even my personal experiences with this mindset trap. By the end of this episode, you'll have practical tools to recognize when you or your clients are caught in this thinking pattern and know exactly how to move forward without the weight of shame or frustration.
