In this episode of Drink the Wild Air, Renee shares what she wishes more people understood about behavior change: it is rarely about laziness, and almost always about what we are trying not to feel.

With nearly a decade in the health and wellness space and newly certified as a Master Health Coach, Renee breaks down the difference between coaching and therapy, why every behavior is solving a problem (even the ones we wish we could “just stop”), and how to build real momentum through small, sustainable steps.

This conversation is a reminder that change is uncomfortable for a reason. It forces us to confront fear, frustration, self-criticism, and the very real discomfort that comes with becoming someone new. Renee explores how anchoring your goals to deeper meaning and purpose is what helps you stay on track when motivation fades and life throws curveballs.

If you’ve been stuck in a cycle of starting over, this episode will help you reframe what’s happening, get curious instead of judgmental, and ask the question that can change everything.
