Why Your Brain Talks You Out of Every Trip — And How to Finally Stop Letting It - Guest: Sheri Larson

You know the moment. The trip is right there. The timing works, the destination is calling your name, and your cursor is hovering over confirm — and then something shuts it all down. Not your budget. Not your schedule. Something deeper. A flood of "but what ifs" that sends you straight back to the couch wondering why you can never just go.Coach and Big Bravely founder Sheri Larson has a name for it, and more importantly, she has a way through it.In this episode, Heide and Nicky sit down with Sheri to talk about the mental patterns that keep women over 45 from taking the adventures they've been promising themselves — sometimes for years. Sheri breaks down what's actually happening in your brain during that freeze moment, why it has nothing to do with willpower or courage, and what you can do about it in real time.You'll walk away knowing which Saboteur patterns are most likely running the show in your own head, what mental fitness actually means and why positive thinking alone will never be enough, and the one small step to take this week if you have a dream trip that keeps getting pushed to someday.This is the episode to share with the woman in your life who has a folder full of saved itineraries and a reason not to go for every one of them. She's ready. She just doesn't know it yet.Find Sheri’s work at BigBravely.comSubscribe, leave us a review, and find us on social media — or send your story to [email protected].
