Inner Game Series - The 3 Questions for Change: How to Change Without Fighting Yourself

Listen Later

Why is change so hard—even when we know what to do?

In this powerful episode of the Empowered Team Podcast, host Kari Schneider breaks down why awareness alone doesn’t lead to transformation—and what actually does. This episode is part of the Inner Game Series: The Power of Questions, and it introduces three deceptively simple questions that make change easier, more aligned, and far more sustainable.

Instead of forcing willpower or battling old habits, Kari shows how to guide your inner game so change feels intentional—not exhausting.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • Why awareness is necessary—but not sufficient—for real change
  • How to stop defaulting to old patterns under stress
  • The role of identity and values in making change stick
  • Why fighting impulses gives them more power (and what works instead)
  • How to replace habits without deprivation or guilt

    • The 3 Questions for Change:

    1. What do I want? (Honest awareness—without judgment)

    2. What’s a better option than my first impulse? (Flexibility over force)

    3. Why does this matter to me? (Values-based motivation that lasts)

      4. Key Takeaway:

      Change becomes sustainable when it’s connected to who you are becoming—not who you’re trying to stop being.


      Listen now and keep these questions handy—for leadership moments, health decisions, tough conversations, and any time change feels hard.
