Repetitive Cycles

Repetitive CyclesIn this episode of Breen Time, Sabrina explores the difference between life’s natural cycles — like the seasons or the span from birth to death — and the repetitive cycles that keep us stuck. Unlike nature’s rhythms, we aren’t meant to keep going round in circles. We’re designed to move forward, grow, and make progress.If you find yourself in the same place again and again, whether in relationships, work, or habits, it’s a sign that something is out of alignment. Sabrina unpacks why these cycles happen, what keeps them going, and how you can break free from them to return to life’s natural forward motion.This week’s exercise:Think of an area of your life where there’s a repetitive cycle or pattern.Describe that cycle or pattern in a single sentence.Slow it down and break it into stages — what exactly happens?Ask yourself:What triggers this cycle to continue?What escalates or encourages it?How did it begin?Why do you allow it to continue?Once you understand the what, how, and why of your cycle, you’ll be far more likely to find the breakthrough you need to move forward.Don’t be tempted by quick fixes — deal with the root cause.Breaking repetitive cycles isn’t about blaming yourself — it’s about gaining clarity, wisdom, and the freedom to live in alignment with life’s true design.Breen Time is a weekly podcast from Brum Radio, hosted by life coach and management consultant Sabrina Brown.
