Happy New Year and Welcome to 2022 to my lovely listeners! I can’t believe it’s already been two years since we have been in this pandemic and it looks like it’s here to stay… What better way to continue that note than exploring this week’s topic: Self-Sabotage. As we have entered the new year, many can feel empowered and motivated towards working on self-improvement and achieving their goals which is wonderful. However, old habits are hard to break, especially self-defeating behaviors and thoughts that one may be accustomed to… Together, let’s break down some of the reasons why we self-sabotage and brainstorm ways to manage as a whole.
