from Experiments In Happiness · host Michelle Lemus

If you’ve tried more discipline, more effort, and more willpower and it still isn’t working this episode is for you.In this conversation, we explore why pushing harder often backfires, especially for high-achieving women who are used to powering through. We talk about the signs you’re out of alignment, why resistance shows up when something deeper needs attention, and what actually helps when effort stops producing results.This isn’t about quitting or giving up. It’s about listening, recalibrating, and choosing a smarter, more compassionate way forward.If you’re exhausted, frustrated, or wondering why your usual strategies aren’t working anymore, this episode may help you finally exhale.🎧 One experiment at a time
