Monday Mini: Avoiding Your Default Settings

from Rock the Damn Boat · host Christy Hughes

In this honest mini-episode of Rock the Damn Boat, I’m sharing the raw inner dialogue I’ve had while trying to talk myself out of closing my yoga studio. For months, I kept defaulting to what felt safe—the familiar, the comfortable, the “don’t rock the boat” path. But deep down, I knew I was being called into a new chapter.Today, I’m opening up about what it feels like to stand at the edge of a big decision, how fear disguises itself as practicality, and why staying in the comfort zone can sometimes keep us from our purpose. I’ll walk you through the exact moment I realized that closing the studio wasn’t failure— it was alignment. It was me choosing growth, expansion, and the next version of myself.If you’re clinging to something because it feels safe, or you’re wrestling with a change your soul is begging for, this one’s for you.Learn more about my new chapter at thrivewithchristy.comKeywords: comfort zone, life transitions, personal growth, closing a business, listening to intuition, courage, new chapter, midlife reinvention, overcoming fear, alignment, Rock the Damn Boat podcast
