Podcasts about self sabotage

Your subconscious mind is running 95% of your decisions. Your conscious mind, the part that's setting goals, making resolutions, and telling itself to do better, is only working with the remaining 5%. That gap is why knowing what you should do is never enough. Thais Gibson has spent over a decade building a framework that actually closes that gap. She is a counselor, founder of the Gibson Integrated Attachment Theory™, and has worked with over 60,000 people through The Personal Development School. In this episode of Habits and Hustle, she breaks down why self-sabotage is not what we all think it is, how your attachment style is quietly running your relationships, and the exact process to rewire patterns you have been carrying since childhood. This is one of those conversations that will make you look at your own behavior completely differently. What's Discussed: (00:05) The real reason your conscious goals keep losing to your subconscious programming. (15:30) What your attachment style is actually telling you about your childhood. (29:00) The attachment combination most likely to end in a vicious cycle. (45:00) Why dating a secure person does not fix an insecure attachment. (58:00) That one belief that's quietly destroying your ability to connect. (1:05:00) What limerence is and why people mistake it for love. (1:15:00) The five pillars to rewire your attachment style at a subconscious level. (1:20:00) Why affirmations do not work and what to do instead. Thank You to Our Sponsors!

In this special client interview, we sit down with Iva to talk about the mindset shifts, habits, and decisions that helped her create lasting change. After years of trying different approaches and feeling stuck in the cycle of starting over, Iva realized that the real transformation had very little to do with finding the perfect diet. She shares how living with lupus, navigating grief, and overcoming all-or-nothing thinking forced her to approach health differently. This conversation is about closing the gap between who you are and who you want to be, learning to ask for help, and building a life that feels aligned with your values instead of driven by fear.We talk about:-The lies we tell ourselves that keep us stuck-Why achievement alone doesn't create happiness-How she knew this time was different-Fear-based versus love-based decision making-Navigating health challenges while living with lupus-Learning to ask for help-Closing the integrity gap-Letting go of perfection and embracing progressTime Stamps: 0:00 Introduction2:20 deciding something had to change4:25 trying everything and nothing working6:56 overcoming the all-or-nothing mindset10:13 dealing with your inner critic11:58 dealing with grief16:55 showing up differently in life18:55 feeling safe to not be perfect20:38 the real changesCONNECT WITH KAIT & MAV:Get 1:1 coaching here: https://go.elev8coaching.net/weight-loss-journeyGet our weekly emails: https://go.maverickonlinecoaching.net/mailing-listEbook: https://go.elev8coaching.net/consistency-book

We dive into what self sabotage really means, why so many people unknowingly get in their own way, and the fitness hill I'm willing to die on.

I know what you're thinking—what do hearing god's voice and christian weight loss challenges have to do with each other? Honestly, that's exactly what I thought too, until I realized the same key has the power to unlock both doors. It's not just about what you're eating; it's about the food noise and mental static preventing you from true spiritual clarity. In this episode, I'm joined by mental fitness coach Eryn Kubinski to uncover the hidden connection between self-sabotage, physical health, and your walk with Christ. We dive deep into how rewiring your thought patterns—your mental fitness—is the secret to breaking cycles of emotional eating and finally opening up the space to hear God clearly. This is a radical look at spiritual warfare and how prioritizing your christian mental health is essential to experiencing the freedom God has for you body, soul AND spirit.Key Talking PointsThe Mental Fitness Connection: Why the same patterns that lead to weight loss stagnation are often blocking your ability to discern the voice of god.Identifying the Sabotage: How to spot the root of self-sabotage that keeps you stuck in cycles of guilt, shame, and overeating.Quieting the Noise: Practical, biblical weight loss strategy to silence food noise and create the mental quiet needed for hearing god clearly.Rewiring for Transformation: Moving from negative thought patterns to discernment—the foundation for christian fitness and lasting transformation.The Spiritual Root: Why addressing your thoughts as part of your spiritual warfare strategy changes everything about your relationship with food and faith.Start hearing God's voice in 5 Days with this short email series.

Today’s episode is a special rebroadcast of one of my all-time favorite conversations on the B.rad Podcast! Every so often, I like to revisit episodes that made a profound impact on me personally and delivered tremendous value to listeners, and this conversation with Thais Gibson is absolutely one of those episodes. I am so pleased to introduce a fantastically awesome show with Thais Gibson, creator of the Personal Development School! When Thais first sent me an overview of what she wanted to discuss, I thought, "Sure, let's talk about it." But I have to tell you, I was completely blown away. This became one of my favorite shows I have ever recorded. Listeners, I truly believe this episode has the potential to be life-changing. I know it was for me. It probably helped that I unknowingly became the guinea pig for much of the conversation. What you'll hear is essentially a live coaching session where Thais demonstrates her expertise and methods using real-life examples from my own experiences—particularly the disconnect between my stated goals and some of my behavior patterns. We focused on the pursuit of wealth and financial security, an area where I occasionally feel frustrated or deficient, perhaps because of subconscious patterns operating beneath the surface. Thais explains the causes of self-sabotage and how to reprogram limiting thought patterns. One of the most fascinating parts of the discussion is when she explains that we're operating from our conscious mind only about three to five percent of the time. If you're someone who listens to podcasts, reads books, and continually educates yourself, your conscious mind may be doing a great job acquiring the knowledge and skills needed to succeed. But your subconscious needs and programming can still interfere and pull you off course. So in this episode, it's time for Brad to get processed, dig deep, and explore what's really happening when self-sabotage kicks in. Thais Gibson is a counselor, bestselling author of Learning Love, and co-founder of the Personal Development School. She holds a Ph.D. and more than 13 certifications in modalities including CBT, NLP, somatic experiencing, Internal Family Systems, shadow work, and hypnosis. After nearly a decade running a successful private practice, she founded The Personal Development School—an online learning platform designed to provide a more accessible and authentic way for people to transform their lives. In fact, after we finished this recording, I enrolled immediately. I encourage you to visit her website and explore what she offers. She offers a test run where you can see what it’s all about—check it out at personaldevelopmentschool.com. Enjoy this special rebroadcast with Thais Gibson! TIMESTAMPS: People may not always be aware that they are self-sabotaging because it usually occurs at a subconscious level. [00:53] Your conscious mind is responsible for roughly 3 to 5 percent of all of your beliefs, thoughts, emotions, and actions or decisions. Your subconscious is responsible for 95 to 97 percent. [04:48] We all have subconscious personality needs. [07:54] Thais uses Brad as an example to unpack what needs it relates to. She asks first, what does he do in his spare time? [09:34] Where does he spend his money? What does he like to learn about? [12:10] Our subconscious mind is also the host of all of our limiting beliefs. [19:46] There is a tool for how to pull up what your limiting beliefs are. [21:42] We're scared of something that's hidden in the periphery at a subconscious level of mind [24:29] Reconditioning is a tool for reprogramming. [26:25] Thais identifies characteristics of people who have been in a relationship with a narcissist. [30:41] Look for the things that trigger you. Plan your limiting belief and use its opposite. [33:02] Step one: What is your core belief and its opposite? Step two: what are 10 memories to support? They can be recent memories, really old memories, doesn't matter. 10 memories to support this new idea about yourself. I am, in fact, good enough. Step three: listen back for 21 days. [34:17] When thinking about financial security, many people struggle with their subconscious as in feeling they don’t deserve it or some parts of society that have a distaste for the inequitable distribution of wealth. [43:10] There are seven areas of life that need attention. Career, financial, mental, emotional, spiritual, physical and relationship. To ignore one area, we will pay for it later. [52:45] What specific things or set of things are you going to do on a daily basis to reprogram? [59:13] So much futile energy and effort toward change without addressing these core issues is going to be tough. [01:06:13] LINKS: Brad Kearns.com BradNutrition.com - 20% OFF Your First Order!

Reactive Distraction and Self-Sabotage: Protecting Your Boundaries   Juan talks about recording this short episode while feeling time pressure to get home to help his sick wife and 1-year-old, using this as an example of "reactive distraction" in his BS (blind spot) model: leaking energy by reacting to interruptions and obligations that don't match the urgency. He shares cases like choosing to help a friend despite needing to work, getting calls from daycare about his 3-year-old's anxiety-related "sickness," taking a non-urgent call during a cautious gym session with an injured ankle, and home contractors running late, all of which trigger guilt, people-pleasing, or avoidance of harder tasks. He argues the issue isn't the events but the mindset and lowered boundaries, and urges listeners to identify where they unconsciously "lower the drawbridge," calibrate responses to true urgency, and protect time without becoming rigid or militant.   00:00 Why I Self Sabotage 00:58 Reactive Distraction Explained 01:25 Gas Tank Analogy 02:08 Helping Drew vs Work 03:13 Daycare Call Dilemma 05:19 Gym Injury and Phone Call 06:52 Contractor Chaos at Home 07:41 Boundaries and Blind Spots 09:42 Call to Action and Wrap Up

Send us Fan MailIf you've been trying to stop a behavior, break a pattern, or change something about yourself but it keeps coming back, this episode is for you.Maybe it's people-pleasing.Over-explaining.Avoidance.Anger.Perfectionism.Shutting down.Or a behavior you keep promising yourself you're done with.But no matter how much you understand it, hate it, or try to force it away, a part of you still goes back to it.In today's solo episode of Alison Answers, Alison Lager breaks down the psychology behind why some behaviors are so hard to stop, and why what looks like self-sabotage may actually be a protector part trying to keep you safe.This episode invites you to stop asking, “What's wrong with me?” and start asking a deeper question:What is this protecting me from?Alison explains why certain behaviors become survival strategies, how the nervous system can mistake change for danger, and why trying to remove a coping strategy too quickly can cause another pattern to take its place.You'll learn why your body may choose protection over happiness, why willpower alone often isn't enough, and how to begin meeting these parts of yourself with curiosity instead of shame.By the end of this episode, you'll understand:- Why “bad behaviors” can be hard to stop even when you want to change- How protector parts form around pain, shame, rejection, and fear- Why your nervous system may resist letting go of old patterns- How people-pleasing, over-explaining, anger, avoidance, and perfectionism can become protection- Why attacking the behavior can make shame worse- Why removing a coping strategy too early can backfire- The question that can help you understand what the behavior is really protecting- How to let your adult self, higher self, or grounded self lead instead of the scared part- Why healing begins with safety, not self-attackIf you've been beating yourself up for the same pattern over and over, this episode will help you see it differently.Maybe the behavior is not the whole story.Maybe the pattern has a purpose.Maybe the part of you you keep fighting was once the part trying to save you.Watch the full episode of Alison Answers to understand the psychology behind why you can't just stop bad behaviors, and what your nervous system may be trying to protect.In this episode00:00 Intro01:05 What protector parts are02:36 Why attacking the behavior can backfire03:26 What happens when a protector is removed too soon05:49 Why coping strategies need to be understood first06:26 Why the protector part is rarely the enemy06:53 Protector parts as exhausted bodyguards09:04 How unhealthy behaviors can regulate the nervous system09:27 Perfectionism, anger, people-pleasing, over-explaining, and dissociation10:32 Why there may be nothing “wrong” with you11:20 What to do instead of attacking the behavior12:23 Questions to ask your protector part13:15 Why the goal is not to destroy the protector14:51 Using visualization to understand younger parts16:03 Letting the adult self lead18:07 Why the behavior is not the whole story18:40 Getting out of the thinking brain and into the body20:29 Awareness without judgment21:20 Learning to ask yourself better questions21:45 Becoming steady, grounded, and peacefulConnect with Alison:Instagram: @alisonanswers | @lagercounselingWebsite: LagerCounseling.comYouTube: Alison AnswersFacebook: Alison Lager Lcsw CasacPurchase Alison's book: “The Wake Up Call”Alison Answers Facebook Group: Join HEREWomen of Excellence FB group: Join HERE⚠️ Crisis Resources:Lager Counseling ServicesCall: 516-221-2123Text: (914) 363-0381Wantagh: 3408 Park Ave. Wantagh, NY 11793988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (24/7, free, confidential)Call or text 988 | Visit 988lifeline.org

Most self-sabotage isn't a discipline problem — it's an unconscious pattern problem. In this episode, I break down something most people struggle to see clearly: the patterns driving self-sabotage are often unconscsherryshabanvious.A lot of people know something is off — stress, emotional triggers, or repeated behaviors — but still can't trace where it's actually coming from. This episode brings clarity to that gap.Instead of trying to fix behavior at the surface level, I guide you into identifying the thought loops underneath it.Why You Can't Always See Your PatternThere's a difference between:conscious thoughts (what you notice)unconscious patterns (what actually drives behavior)Unconscious beliefs live in the nervous system and quietly shape:emotional reactionseating behaviorsrelationship patternsself-sabotage cyclesThis is why awareness alone sometimes feels incomplete — the real driver is often deeper than thought.Pattern #1: Birth Trauma (The World Feels Unsafe)This pattern shows up as an unconscious sense that the world is unsafe or unpredictable.It can look like:chronic anxiety or hypervigilanceassuming others can't be trustedfeeling unsafe in neutral environmentsapologizing for your existencefear without a clear sourceAt its core, this pattern keeps the nervous system in protection mode.Pattern #2: Parental Disapproval ConditioningThis pattern forms when approval or emotional validation felt inconsistent growing up.It can show up as:never feeling “good enough”overworking for recognitiondifficulty feeling satisfied with achievementsneeding external validation to feel secureWorth becomes tied to performance instead of inherent identity.Pattern #3: The Unconscious Death UrgeThis is the “shutdown” or withdrawal response that appears when change feels overwhelming.It sounds like:“What's the point?”“Why bother?”“Nothing will work anyway”“I've tried everything”It often appears right before growth opportunities — not because change isn't possible, but because the system is resisting effort and uncertainty.Pattern #4: Negative Thought Loops (What If Thinking)Two dominant patterns show up here:What If Down Thinking:What if it doesn't work?What if I fail?What if I get rejected?What If Up Thinking:What if it works?What if something shifts?What if I succeed?Most people live primarily in “what if down” without noticing how much it shapes behavior.Struggling with emotional or binge eating?

Potential does not mean much if we never activate it. In this episode, we sit down for a candid conversation about the five reasons people often fall short of what they are capable of becoming.We talk about the trap of waiting to feel ready, why over-preparing can become a form of procrastination, and how confidence is built by doing the thing before we feel fully qualified. We also explore why our environment matters, how the conversations around us shape our thinking, and why getting into bigger rooms can expand what we believe is possible.From there, we unpack the difference between motivation and discipline, why consistency can feel boring before it becomes powerful, and why the middle often feels like failure. We also talk about criticism, visibility, imposter syndrome, and the cost of caring too much about other people's opinions.At the core of this conversation is a simple reminder: talent matters, but consistency and commitment are what carry us forward.We Talk About: [00:00] Why Potential Has to Be Activated[03:04] Reason 1: Waiting to Feel Ready[09:22] Reason 2: Staying Around People Who Keep You Small[15:56] Reason 3: Confusing Motivation With Discipline[23:05] Reason 4: Being Too Concerned With Other People's Opinions[33:36] Reason 5: Never Fully Committing[39:43] Consistency Beats Talent Every TimeResources:Learn more at The Color of MoneyListen to the previous episode on discipline with Daniel Dixon and Julia LashayBecome a real estate agent HEREConnect with Our HostsEmerick Peace:Instagram: @theemerickpeaceFacebook: facebook.com/emerickpeaceDaniel Dixon:Instagram: @dixonsolditFacebook: facebook.com/realdanieldixonLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dixonsolditYouTube: @dixongroupcompaniesJulia Lashay:Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashayBo MenkitiInstagram: @bomenkitiFacebook: facebook.com/obiora.menkitiLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bomenkiti/Produced by NOVAThis podcast is for general informational purposes only.

Send us Fan MailHow to Finally Do the Thing That Matters Most (Starting Today)Why are you stuck? Why can't you do the thing you know you're meant to do? It's not fear of failure, lack of strategy, or discipline, it's something much quieter, and it lives in your body, not your head.In this episode, Dr. Amen Kaur reveals what neuroscience, psychology, and the oldest spiritual traditions all agree on, from completely different starting points. You'll hear how Neville Goddard's "feeling is the secret," Carl Rogers' work on acceptance and congruence, Paul Gilbert's research on self-compassion, and Stephen Porges' polyvagal theory point to the same mechanism the Bible, Buddha, Rumi, Guru Nanak, and the Quran have been teaching for centuries.In this episode:The real reason high-achieving women stay stuck for yearsWhy your nervous system has to feel safe before your brain can do its best workThe hidden block underneath procrastination, overthinking, and self-sabotage (hint: it's not what you fear, it's what you can't receive)How self-criticism activates the same threat response as an external attackThe one shift you can make this week to come back to yourselfPerfect for you if: you're a capable, driven woman who has done all the inner work, therapy, mindset, manifestation, strategy and still feels stuck, overwhelmed, or like you're performing a life instead of living it.This isn't a 10-step plan. It's a return to yourself.

In this episode, Ryan Michler explores the ancient concept known as the "Ulysses Pact" and explains how it can help modern men build discipline, avoid self-sabotage, and stay committed under pressure. Drawing from Homer's Odyssey, Ryan breaks down why willpower alone often fails and how intentional systems, accountability, and pre-commitment strategies create lasting change.   Through practical examples involving finances, alcohol, work-life balance, and relationships, he shows how men can protect themselves from moments of weakness before temptation ever arrives. Ryan also shares the importance of brotherhood, structure, and personal responsibility in becoming the man one is meant to be.

Send us Fan MailWhat happens when your business, motherhood, and responsibilities continue to grow… but your inner capacity feels stretched thin?In this deeply honest and powerful conversation, I welcome mindset and entrepreneur coach Coach Clem to The Good Enough Mompreneur Podcast to talk about the hidden emotional weight so many women silently carry while trying to “hold it all together.”Coach Clem, a UK-based mindset coach originally from France, has supported hundreds of women — many of them mompreneurs — through growth, transition, burnout, overwhelm, and the internal pressure that often goes unseen. Together, Angela and Clem explore the importance of inner stability, why awareness alone isn't enough to create change, and how many of the behaviors we label as “self-sabotage” are actually intelligent protection patterns formed over time.This conversation is a reminder that you do not have to build your business from survival mode — and that sustainable success begins within.In this episode, we discuss: Why ambitious women often feel overwhelmed even when life looks successful  The invisible expectations placed on moms and entrepreneurs  How social media fuels the “not enough” feeling  Reframing self-sabotage as intelligent protection  The connection between perfectionism, people pleasing, and burnout  The three life seasons: growth, realignment, and survival  Why awareness alone doesn't create lasting transformation  How to begin building inner stability in everyday life  The importance of alignment in motherhood, business, and personal growth  Why this inner work matters not just for us — but for our children, too Memorable Moments from the Episode:✨ “You do not have to prove your worth through exhaustion.”✨ “A strength taken too far can become self-sabotage.”✨ “You can build success from alignment instead of survival mode.”✨ “Inner stability is not a luxury — it's a foundation.”Connect with Coach Clem:

There's a voice in your head.It speaks constantly.It comments on everything.And more often than not… It's critical, harsh, and never quite satisfied.If you feel stuck in emotional eating or self-sabotage, this episode will help you understand the real reason why—and show you how to take your power back by separating from the voice in your head.1. The Voice You've Been Listening To (Without Realizing It)You are always in conversation with yourself.And that voice?Tells you you're not doing enoughMakes you feel like you're failingQuestions whether anything will ever workBut here's the shift:That voice is not trying to hurt you. It's trying to protect you.2. Protection Mode & The Nervous SystemWhen that voice gets loud:It triggers stressIt activates Protection ModeIt pulls you into reaction instead of responseAnd when you're in Protection Mode, you don't feel safe—you feel reactive and out of control.3. Reacting vs. RespondingReaction is automatic.Response is intentional.The difference?Choice.When I create space between a thought and my action…I take my power back.4. Emotional Eating Isn't the ProblemEmotional eating isn't failure.It's a coping mechanism.Food, scrolling, drinking, shopping—these were strategies your body created to support you at some point.But you get to decide if they still serve you.5. Emotional Regulation Is the Missing SkillEvery emotion carries a message.Instead of avoiding or numbing it, I can:Notice itFeel itUnderstand itRespond to it6. What Keeps You StuckIt's not lack of knowledge.It's the voice that:JudgesShamesReplays the pastKeeps you smallThe more I believe that voice… the more stuck I stay.7. The Shift That Changes EverythingI am not the voice in my head.I am the one hearing it.And when I stop engaging with it…I create space to choose differently.8. You Can't Shame Yourself Into ChangeReal change doesn't come from punishment.It comes from:AwarenessCompassionSelf-respect9. Breaking the PatternWhen I can observe:The triggerThe thoughtThe emotionThe urgeI can interrupt the cycle.That's where freedom begins.Struggling with emotional or binge eating?

Some truths don't come out quietly… they show up and change everything. This week on The John Cash Show Podcast, we're breaking down the stories that prove one thing: The truth doesn't whisper—it SCREEN RECORDS. From shocking revelations to uncomfortable conversations, this episode dives into the moments where secrets expired, narratives got challenged, and the internet did what it always does—react first, verify later. IN THIS EPISODE: Honoring a Cultural Icon A powerful tribute to Kiki Shepard—an undeniable force behind Showtime at the Apollo and a symbol of grace, authority, and Black cultural excellence. This is more than remembrance… this is legacy. Studio Setup or Self-Sabotage? Pooh Shiesty, Big30, and explosive allegations involving Gucci Mane. When the studio turns into something else entirely, we have to ask: Is this bad luck… or bad decisions catching up? Confession or Context? Brandy finally reveals a long-denied relationship with Wanya Morris—and the timeline raises serious questions. Does time change the truth… or just delay accountability? Perception vs Reality Chilli from TLC trends for political controversy—and the internet does what it does best. When perception moves faster than facts… what actually matters? Final Verdict: Public Audit This week wasn't just messy—it was a full-blown audit. Who took the biggest L… and why? THIS EPISODE WILL MAKE YOU QUESTION: Are we reacting to facts… or feelings? Does time change accountability? Can you separate the artist from the narrative? And most importantly… Are we judging others for things we've done—just without an audience?   DISCLAIMER Everything discussed is public, alleged, and already online. We are commentators—not investigators. The facts are public. The reactions? That's where it gets dangerous.

Does your inner critic get loudest exactly when you need it to be quiet? In this Squiggly Shortcut, Helen unpacks what self-sabotage actually looks and feels like at work, and shares four simple things you can do to start turning the volume down.

Disclaimer: Due to a studio change and some equipment issues, the audio quality in this episode isn't what you're used to from Heart of Man. My team has done the best with what we had. I can however say with absolute confidence, the conversation itself was worth every minute. I hope you feel the same.Gil 'the Grid' Gomes Leal is the founder and artistic director of the Amenti dance collective and creator of the Amenti MoveMeant method. As a choreographer, performer, and movement teacher drawing from hip hop, African embodiment, Jungian psychology, and shadow work, Gil now incorporates movement as a form of medicine, connecting others to the inherent wisdom of their body.Gil grew up inside a Jehovah's Witness household in Rotterdam, where the joy, freedom, and expression he found through dance became a direct threat to his sense of belonging... It was within those early years of tension between attachment and his authentic expression that the foundation of everything he now teaches was laid...Through workshops, immersions, and trainings, Gil works alongside the Amenti collective with individuals to access their innate intelligence, guiding them towards deeper empowerment and healing of incomplete past experiences.I attended one of Amenti's workshops in Bali last year and was struck, as a somatic practitioner myself, by the potent places I got to access through this movement method.At the core of this conversation is a question Gil and I keep returning to: how can we move through experiences where we may have been legitimately victimized, and come into a felt embodiment of our agency and power, which I would argue is our birthright. We explore how this can be reclaimed through movement, shadow work, and the willingness to stop identifying as a victim of our story and start taking responsibility for it.In this episode, find out:How Gil's childhood within the Jehovah's Witnesses shaped himThe value of the pain teacher, and what it teachesWhy authenticity requires the willingness to lose people, and the cost of choosing attachment over truthThe link between unresolved trauma and powerlessness, and how the body can become the access towards agencyThe difference between being victimized by an event and adopting the victim identity as a way of lifeWhy anger is such a foundational emotion to work with, and the wisdom it carriesWhy fundamental safety can never be a given, and why the focus according to Gil is about creating brave spaces rather than safe onesI loved this conversation with Gil, and admire the way he was fuelled by his own pain, making incredible art out of it that individuals worldwide now get to benefit from.This episode is for anyone who has spent years feeling like life is happening to them, and is ready to step into the truth that it no longer has to.—Connect with Alex Lehmann:

If you've been wanting to start a side hustle, or grow the one you've got, but something keeps getting in the way, this episode is for you! In my conversations with people lately, the thing holding them back has nothing to do with their idea, the market, or the timing. In every case, the obstacle is internal. They're getting in their own way. Self-sabotage doesn't just show up once. On the side hustle journey it shows up at three very specific stages, and each time it looks a little different, which is exactly why it's so easy to miss. In this encore episode you'll learn: The three stages where self-sabotage shows up on your side hustle journey and how to recognize each one Why "productive-looking" procrastination is one of the sneakiest forms of self-sabotage The escape hatch moment; what it is, when it hits, and how to push through it Why success itself can trigger a pullback and what to do when opportunity shows up and your instinct is to shrink The one commitment to make before you launch that can change everything If you've ever wondered why you keep getting in your own way, you've landed in the right spot. Do you like what you're hearing? Consider giving it a caffeinated thumbs up. We'd really appreciate it! Need a little (and sometimes big) push to start and stay focused to grow your side hustle?

If you've ever understood exactly why you do something, and then did it anyway (again), then this episode is for you.I spent nearly 2 decades doing genuine, deep, inner work. Therapy, somatic practices, learning, even helping clients. I could name every wound, explain every pattern, and still spent years trying to 'get out of my own way'. Feeling at odds with different parts of myself.So, let's dive deep about the paradox of being a deeply self-aware person who still self-sabotages. Why awareness alone isn't the mechanism of change. What's actually happening in your nervous system while you're busy being frustrated that nothing is changing. And what I finally learned was 'the thing' that moves the needle.

SummaryIn this episode of The Chasing Health Podcast, Chase Smith and Chris Bealhen talk about self-sabotage and why so many people stay stuck even when they really want to change.They explain that self-sabotage is not always obvious. It is not just overeating after a bad day or skipping a workout. Sometimes it looks like waiting for the perfect time to start, turning one mistake into a full week off track, avoiding your coach when you feel embarrassed, or making your plan way too extreme.Chase and Chris also talk about how your brain wants to keep you safe and comfortable, even if your current habits are not helping you. That means change can feel scary, even when it is good for you.They break down how to stop letting emotions make every decision, why data can help you stay logical, and how small daily actions build the new version of yourself. The biggest message is simple: you do not need a perfect plan. You need to stop quitting on yourself and keep showing up, even when it feels uncomfortable.Chapters(00:00) Why Self-Sabotage Is Sneaky(01:09) Your Brain Is Trying To Protect You From Change(03:46) Waiting For The Right Time To Start(06:32) Why The Perfect Time Never Comes(10:11) Turning One Slip Into A Full Spiral(12:36) How Tracking Helps You Stop Thinking All-Or-Nothing(15:24) Disappearing When You Feel Embarrassed(18:57) Why Support Matters Most When You Want To Hide(20:19) The Power Of Daily Communication And Accountability(25:12) Stop Making The Plan More Extreme(26:12) Why Flexibility Helps You Win Long-Term(29:57) Staying Too Vague About What Needs To Change(32:27) Letting Feelings Make The Final Decision(36:06) Learning To Regulate Your Emotions(37:26) The Old Stories You Keep Telling Yourself(38:39) Changing Your Identity And Becoming Someone New(41:34) Bonus: Fear Of Success(42:59) Why This Time Can Be DifferentSUBMIT YOUR QUESTIONS to be answered on the show: https://forms.gle/B6bpTBDYnDcbUkeD7How to Connect with Us:Chase's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/changing_chase/Chris' Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/conquer_fitness2021/Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/665770984678334/Interested in 1:1 Coaching: https://conquerfitnessandnutrition.com/1on1-coachingJoin The Fit Fam Collective: https://conquerfitnessandnutrition.com/fit-fam-collective

In this episode, Dr. Ben Steel joins Doug Larson and Dr. Mike Lane to break down the psychology of self-sabotage, performance anxiety, and why high performers often get in their own way. Ben shares his background as a former wrestler, certified mental performance consultant, and mental health counselor, explaining how his own experience with pre-performance anxiety led him into sports psychology. The conversation centers on how athletes and driven people often use avoidance, perfectionism, all-or-nothing thinking, and "paralysis by analysis" as protective mechanisms, not because they are lazy or weak, but because they are trying to avoid shame, embarrassment, failure, or exposure.   The team also explores how self-sabotage shows up differently in athletes, lifters, business owners, and high performers. For some people, it looks like blowing a diet, skipping competition, overtraining, or waiting until everything is perfect before taking action. For others, especially successful people, it can look like over-indexing on work or performance while avoiding uncomfortable emotional conversations, relationships, or deeper personal issues. Ben explains how tools like CBT, visualization, breathing, self-talk, arousal regulation, and pre-performance routines can help, but the deeper solution often starts with empathy, trust, outside perspective, and helping people feel understood rather than judged. Big takeaway: self-sabotage is usually not a character flaw. It is a protection strategy. The goal is to identify what pain the person is avoiding, reduce the perceived threat, build confidence through small actions, and help them step into a challenge without needing everything to be perfect first.

A rule of thumb for telling resistance apart from legitimate doubt. Why the more important a project is, the more terrifying it should feel. When you can finally write about pain, and why distance matters more than rawness. How an idea for a book might arrive as a single sentence and refuse to leave.

Shirzad Chamine: Positive Intelligence Shirzad has been the CEO of the largest coach training organization in the world. He has lectured on Positive Intelligence at Stanford University and has trained faculty at Stanford and Yale business schools. He is the author of The New York Times bestseller Positive Intelligence: Why Only 20% of Teams and Individuals Achieve Their True Potential and How You Can Achieve Yours (Amazon, Bookshop)*. By overusing our strengths, they can become our weakness. It's just one of the many ways that leaders self-sabotage. In this conversation, Shirzad and I explore how to shift from self-sabotage to self-mastery. Key Points Most men lead lives of quiet desperation and go to the grave with the song still in them. -Henry David Thoreau We are all a mixed bag of Darth Vader (saboteur) and Jedi knight (sage). By overusing a strength, you turn it into a weakness. Rather than attempting to eliminate all our saboteurs, it's more helpful to be intentional about quieting them down. The four most common saboteurs that show up for leaders are Controller, Stickler, Hyper Achiever, Hyper Rational. Sage perspective: Every outcome or circumstance can be turned into an opportunity. A 10-second brain shift can help quiet your mind and engage the sage. One way to do this is to rub your fingers together and notice the friction to get your mind out of autopilot.
