If you've ever committed to a healing practice only to find yourself avoiding it, procrastinating, or collapsing into old habits, this episode is for you. Inge unpacks the raw, real layers of resistance that show up after we say yes to healing — and offers compassionate, grounded guidance to move through it with grace.
The block we bust in this episode: "Healing feels like another to-do list"
This one is for you if:
- You're avoiding a practice you once felt deeply called to.
- You're feeling anxious, snappy, or shut down for “no reason.”
- You're stepping into a new phase of leadership or identity.
What you'll take with you:
- Resistance is not a sign something is wrong — it often means something really matters.
- Your inner child may need to feel seen and held before she can let you change.
- “Big dreams, baby steps” is the rhythm of embodied transformation.
