Sessions for the Soul

Ep. 29 Is It a Block — or Is It Not for You?


Listen Later

In this episode of Sessions for the Soul, we’re unpacking the difference between a mental block and something that simply isn’t meant for you. When hesitation shows up, how do you know if it’s fear you’re meant to work through… or intuition asking you to listen?

We explore how “working through blocks” has become a buzzword in wellness and coaching culture, and how that mindset can sometimes ignore reality, boundaries, and ethical considerations. From financial and emotional blocks to indecision, intuition, people-pleasing, and pressure to say yes, this conversation invites you to slow down and get curious instead of forcing yourself forward.

We also dive into:

Blocks vs. indecision: how to tell the difference
Intuition vs. fear (and why they’re often confused)
Why not every hesitation is a sign you need to “heal more”
The pressure to override boundaries in coaching, work, and relationships
When discomfort is growth — and when it’s a red flag
Trusting a grounded, embodied “no” without shame

If you’ve ever felt stuck, guilty for not pushing harder, or confused about whether you’re avoiding something or honoring yourself, this episode offers a grounded, compassionate reframe.


✨ Sometimes the work isn’t pushing through — it’s listening more honestly.
