In today's episode of Calm AF, we're diving deep into one of the most harmful modern mindsets: the belief that you have to fix yourself before you can enjoy your life. If you've ever felt like you need to check off a to-do list before you're allowed to relax or be happy — this episode is your reminder to stop fixing yourself to be happy.
Inspired by a love letter from my private podcast, this "spiel" explores why you don't need to earn joy, peace, or worthiness. You're not a project — you're a human being living a once-in-a-lifetime experience. And that means you deserve to love your life right now, not after the next goal, hack, or habit tracker.
🧠 What You'll Learn:Why constant self-improvement can actually keep you stuck
The difference between desire-based transformation and shame-driven change
How to stop treating your life like a never-ending project
The truth about the to-do list that never ends
How to actually enjoy your life — while still growing and evolving
Get a mindset reset every morning — no extra effort, no fixing required. ➡️ Subscribe here
