Why You’re Trying So Hard… and It’s Not Working (Here’s What to Do Instead)
from Unleash Your Inner Creative with Lauren LoGrasso (A Creativity Podcast) · host Lauren LoGrasso Productions LLC
Have you ever noticed… the more you try to force something, the less it actually works? The more you push, control, overthink… the more stuck you feel? Same here, cutie! In this solo episode, I’m sharing something I’m actively working through in real time as I step into full-time entrepreneurship… how to stop forcing everything and start trusting that things can actually work out.Because lately, I’ve felt myself gripping. Trying to make things happen right now. Trying to control outcomes. And all it’s been doing is burning me out and blocking the very things I want.So today, I’m talking about the shift I’m making from forcing → faith, while still taking real, intentional action.We get into:-Why forcing energy actually pushes life away-The difference between effort and desperation-How fear and past patterns keep us stuck in control-The daily practices helping me stay grounded (and not spiral)-How to focus on what’s real instead of future-tripping worst case scenariosIf you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, or like you’re trying so hard and it’s still not clicking… this is for you.
