from RAW CHATTER! Unfiltered Conversations on the Psychology of Addiction, Behaviour & High Performance · host Vicky Midwood - Human Performance Strategist
Why do we keep going back to behaviours we know aren't helping us?Why do we overthink, people please, comfort eat, drink too much, avoid difficult conversations or keep repeating the same patterns despite desperately wanting something different?In this episode of RAW CHATTER, I explore why awareness alone isn't enough to create lasting change.We look at:✅ Why the brain is a prediction machine✅ FEAR – False Evidence Appearing Real✅ How your nervous system responds to imagined threats as if they're real✅ Why familiar patterns feel safer than unfamiliar ones✅ The boomerang effect that pulls people back into old habits✅ How identity shapes behaviour✅ Why repetition and adaptation matter more than willpowerIf you've ever found yourself saying:"I know what I need to do, I just don't do it."This episode is for you.🎥 WATCH MY FREE MASTERCLASS:Why Awareness Alone Keeps People Stuck: The Hidden Patterns Shaping Your Energy, Health & PerformanceDetails here: go-figure-coaching-mlg3hl.subscribepage.io🌐 Website:https://www.vickymidwood.com📩 Email: [email protected]🔗 Connect with me:LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/vickymidwood/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/vicky.midwoodInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/vickymidwood_gfc/Remember:The old pattern isn't winning because it's better.It's winning because it's had more practice.
