Tired of understanding all your patterns but still feeling stuck? In this episode, we're diving into the uncomfortable truth about why all that self-help content and therapy insight isn't actually changing your life.

In conversation, we tackle:

  • Why being "the self-aware friend" might be your newest form of avoidance
  • How instant access to information is making us worse at solving our own problems
  • Why validation without action is just spicy procrastination
  • The uncomfortable truth about why therapy isn't just about feeling seen
  • What your endless TikTok scrolling says about your fear of change
  • How technology is teaching us to avoid sitting with hard emotions
  • Why waiting to feel "ready" means waiting forever
  • The difference between productive discomfort and tolerating what needs to change
  • Practical steps for moving from understanding to action
