Sunk Cost "Phallacy"

from I'm Your Mother Now Hosted by Amala Moon Productions

We’re back in full 2026 energy—hydrated, fed, and emotionally regulated (kind of). In this episode, Sarah and Amanda unpack the psychology of sunk cost fallacy—why we stay in things (jobs, relationships, marriages, identities) long after they’ve stopped serving us—and what it takes to walk away with intention. This one moves through the light and the heavy. We talk about the grief and confusion that comes with letting go, but also open up about the current state of the world—how we’re coping, what’s breaking our hearts, and how we’re holding on to hope while honoring what’s real. 👻 Also inside: • Mashed potato pizza, hydration & hot earrings • Codependency, endings, and regulating your way out of survival mode • Spiritual bypassing vs. staying awake • Connecticut pizza discourse and the accidental brilliance of “phallacy” 💫 Catch us LIVE on Instagram every Friday at 8:30 AM EST 👉 Follow @iymn_podcast and share this with someone who’s grieving, shifting, or just done pretending it’s fine.
