Self-Sabotage: How + Why You Hold Yourself Back Even When You Know You Want to Change Your Life or Career | Ep. 91

from What If It Is Possible? · host Tajda Glazer

Why is it that YOU WANT to take action on your dreams & goals and you may even know the steps to get there, but you still end up self-sabotaging and not doing it?  Maybe you procrastinate. Say to yourself that it needs to be perfect. Start doubting whether this will even work. Start worrying what others will think.  When this happens, it means that there's something in your unconscious that doesn't want you to go there. And because the unconscious steers 95% of your behaviour, you hold yourself back.   In today's episode, we'll talk about why self-sabotage happens, the role of your unconscious in all of this and how you can overcome your self-sabotaging patterns and make the changes you want - with EASE, grace and lightness.    Here's what we dive into:  ✨ The connection between the unconscious and self-sabotage ✨ Why simply pushing yourself harder, creating more discipline or blaming yourself doesn't create real, sustainable change  ✨ The two foundational tendencies of your unconscious and what happens when they get into an inner conflict  ✨ Client examples of self-sabotage around career, business, success, visibility and personal growth, and what changed when we worked with the unconscious rather than against it   How do you tend to self-sabotage yourself?
