In this Epic AF episode, Kelly O’Neil blows the lid off the self-sabotage that keeps high-achievers stuck in a mediocre loop. From perfectionism and people-pleasing to excuse-making and scrolling your damn dreams away, she calls out the ten patterns that are secretly stealing your power and gives you the straight-up roadmap to reclaim your momentum. Spoiler alert: nothing changes until you stop bullshitting yourself. This one’s not for the faint of heart—it’s for those ready to stop living on autopilot and start rewiring for greatness.

Key Talking Points:

• Perfectionism is Fear in Disguise: Epic doesn’t mean flawless. It means showing up anyway.
• People-Pleasing = Power Leaking: Stop shape-shifting to fit into someone else’s small box.
• Your Inner Voice Matters: Self-talk can either lift you or lock you down. Rewire it.
• “I’ll Start Tomorrow” is a Lie: The power is in the present. There is no perfect time.
• Distraction is a Drug: Binging content and scrolling endlessly keeps you numbed out and stuck.
• Fear of Failure is Not an Excuse: Crash, fall, fail. Do it again. That’s how you win.
• Comparison Kills Progress: Someone else’s highlight reel isn’t your truth. Focus on your lane.
• Self-Care is a Non-Negotiable: Burnout doesn’t build empires. Take care of your damn self.
• Radical Ownership: No more blame, no more excuses. Everything changes when you take full responsibility for your life.
• All-or-Nothing Thinking is a Trap: Progress beats perfection every time. Start where you are.
