from Unlearning · host Shayna Naus

You’ve read the books. You’ve binged the podcasts. You’ve taken the masterclasses. And yet… you still find yourself stuck in the same old cycles.This episode is for the woman who’s done all the “right” things in the self-help world—and still feels like nothing sticks. We’re diving into the truth behind why surface-level personal development often leads to burnout and disappointment, and what you really need to create lasting transformation. This is raw, honest, and the permission slip you didn’t know you needed.
