237 - You Already Know What To Do. That Was Never The Problem.

In this episode: Why “knowing what to do” is often just trivia, not real awareness, and what real awareness actually sounds like How perimenopause can interfere with your body's hunger and fullness signals (interoceptive awareness) Why this exact objection hits high-achieving, capable women the hardest, and why the LLYT lens explains why force of will doesn't work on a body run by cortisol and hormones The intention-behavior gap: why even sincere intentions only predict about a third of actual follow-through (Sheeran & Webb) Decision fatigue and why willpower runs out by 8pm (Baumeister) Why vague intentions fail and specific if-then plans work two to three times better (Gollwitzer & Sheeran) Self-handicapping: the quiet, protective habit of setting yourself up to fail so it doesn't feel personal (Jones & Berglas) Why your environment is quietly making decisions before you do, and how to rebuild your cues (Wendy Wood) The reframe that turns an identity problem into a Tuesday problem you can actually fix   Research referenced: Sheeran, P., & Webb, T.
