In this episode, I reflect on my personal journey with the competing commitments framework and its surprising connection to Hong Kong. Despite a strong desire to move to this vibrant city, hidden inner barriers held me back—something I only realized later through my work on competing commitments. I also reflect on my two-month experiment living in Hong Kong in 2023 and hosting a workshop there in early 2019 that brought this framework to life for others. Listen to this episode if you want to learn about the interplay of personal aspirations, unconscious commitments, and how small experiments can modify subconscious beliefs.
