If you’ve ever wondered why making progress feels so difficult, here’s the truth: change is hard because your brain is wired to resist it. In this solo episode, I walk you through the Transtheoretical Model of Behavior Change, a proven framework that explains the 5 stages we all move through when trying to change habits, pursue goals, or rewrite old stories.
You’ll learn:
Why resistance isn’t failure, it’s part of the process
The 5 stages of change (pre-contemplation, contemplation, preparation, action, and maintenance)
Why relapse is normal (and how to “miss it and move on”)
How to identify where you typically get stuck, so you can get the right support
Resources Mentioned:
HERO Roles Assessment: https://amandamckinney.com/quiz
Capacity Calculator: https://amandamckinney.com/calculator
