🎧 In this episode: 
• 01:13 Identifying the Barriers to Change 
• 07:42 The Importance of Intention and Execution 
• 14:14 Making Decisive and Courageous Choices 
• 26:30 Practical Steps for a Better Year 
💡 Key Takeaways: 
• The 5 places you keep making decisions from (and why that repeats your year): Fear, familiarity, fatigue, guilt, and identities you’ve outgrown. 
• A simple reframe that changes everything: “Does this decision advance the plot or stall it?” No drama required. Just direction. 
• A 48-hour action challenge to rebuild self-trust: Pick one postponed decision, take one step in 48 hours, and use the feeling of alignment as your compass. 
• Resentment is information, not a character flaw. When you feel resentment, numbness, or “tired but I slept,” it’s a signal that you’re out of alignment and likely self-abandoning somewhere. 
 
You’ve already done the quo—now it’s time to go beyond.
