The root of self-sabotage lies in your Inner Child’s fear of failure and rejection — learn how to transform that fear into flow, confidence, and peace.

Are you tired of getting in your own way? This Tao Dialogue explores the deeper roots of self-sabotage — why it happens, where it begins, and how to transform it through awareness and compassion.

You’ll learn how to:
 ✅ Recognise hidden self-sabotaging patterns
 ✅ Heal your Inner Child and reconnect with self-trust
 ✅ Reprogram limiting beliefs that keep you stuck
 ✅ Take aligned action toward peace, purpose, and success

When you stop fighting yourself, life starts to flow. Freedom begins with understanding, not force.
