Know Your Self-Sabotage, Use Playfullness To Improve And Heal Your Life

from Lights On! · host Diamond Lightning

What's really behind self-sabotage — and why does success itself sometimes scare us more than failure? In this episode of Lights On! Podcast, Kyahnasun and Anamika dig into the patterns that keep us stuck on repeat: old trauma, the fear of shining, and the quiet ways we dim our own light to stay comfortable.They unpack the Hawaiian story of The Bowl of Light from Tales from the Night Rainbow — a teaching on how we collect "stones" of pain and resentment over a lifetime, and how to tip the bowl and return to our original brightness. From there, the conversation moves into Gay Hendricks' concept of the Upper Limit Problem from The Big Leap, exploring why we crash after big wins, expansive experiences, or moments of real joy — and why that crash is a measurement, not a failure.Threaded through it all is the case for playfulness as a healing tool and a business strategy: how bringing play into everyday tasks (even taxes) builds resilience, sustains high performance, and keeps relationships — and inner child — intact.In this episode:Why self-sabotage is self-love in reverse, and how to spot the loop before it repeatsThe Bowl of Light: a Hawaiian teaching on releasing stored traumaGay Hendricks' Upper Limit Problem and the post-expansion "crash landing"How playfulness rewires resistance into flow, in business, healing, and marriagePractical pattern-recognition as a tool for breaking repeating life lessons🎧 New episodes every Sunday at 11pm.
