Why do you keep slipping back into old habits even after a great week?

In this episode of The Queen of Pep Talks, Jessica breaks down why self-sabotage isn't really about discipline — it's about familiarity. She explains why your brain craves what's familiar over what's healthy, why every new version of you feels uncomfortable at first, and why growth isn't about becoming someone new but uncovering who you already are underneath fear.

Jessica also shares how identity changes one decision at a time, and why the question to ask isn't "did I mess up," but "who am I becoming." If you've ever wondered why good habits don't stick, this episode will change how you think about change itself.
