Breaking Out of the Invisible Cage

from The Playbook · host David Meltzer, Entrepreneur.com

In today’s episode, I sit down with Genea Barnes, career empowerment coach, speaker, and founder of Be The Wolf, to explore how early life experiences shape the decisions we make as adults. Genea shares the powerful Yellowstone wolf story that inspired her work and explains how many of our fears, habits, and patterns stem from what was demonstrated to us before we were old enough to understand it. We discuss self sabotage, anxiety, trauma, and the concept of the “invisible cage” that can keep people stuck in familiar behaviors. Genea also offers practical ways to reconnect with your authentic self and create lasting change.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
