Podcasts about self sabotage

Send me a some feedback!In Part 8 of the Unbreakable series, Mike and Angie unpack one of the most confronting and irritating human patterns: self-sabotage. This episode explores how the nervous system, wired for familiarity over safety, unconsciously pulls us back to what it knows — even when life improves. From relationships to wealth to personal growth, they break down how “upper limits” show up and why we repeatedly sabotage joy, stability, and success when things get “too good.”Through personal stories, financial examples, addiction patterns, and relationship breakdowns, they reveal how self-sabotage isn't intentional — it's unconscious. And once you see it, you can't unsee it. This episode challenges you to stop blaming circumstances and start examining where your own nervous system may be quietly resetting your life back to its familiar baseline.Key TakeawaysYour nervous system prioritizes familiarity over safety. It keeps you alive by keeping you in what it knows — even if that environment is unhealthy.Self-sabotage is not conscious. It's an unconscious nervous system response when life exceeds your current capacity for joy, love, or wealth.You can be wired to have success but not wired to hold it. Without expanding your internal capacity, growth will trigger contraction.Upper limits affect every area of life. Financial growth can trip relationship issues. Relationship peace can trigger health problems. Everything is interconnected.Your “financial thermostat” determines your set point. If you exceed it, you'll unconsciously find a way to reset back to your familiar baseline — until you expand your capacity.Notable Quotes“The nervous system has one job and one job only and that's to keep you alive.”“It keeps you alive by keeping you in familiar circumstances.”“When things get too good, we fuck it up.”“When there's no reason for our joy and our happiness and fulfillment and the love in our heart to go away and it does, that's self-sabotage.”“If you're used to a low quality of life, your nervous system wants you to have it. And if you're used to a high quality of life, your nervous system wants you to have it because it knows how to operate there.”Call To ActionIf this conversation resonates, it's pointing to the deeper work—learning how to regulate internally instead of expecting life, success, or relationships to regulate you.

Where Science, Shadow Work, and Spirit Collide to Manifest Your Miracles.In this episode, I break down one of the most searched questions online right now: “Why isn't manifestation working for me?” If you've been scripting, affirming, visualizing, and taking action but nothing is moving, this conversation will shift how you understand what's actually happening.Episode Takeaways:Why manifestation stalls when you're operating from pressureThe difference between expanding and trying to escape your current realityHow nervous system contraction overrides affirmationsWhy “self-sabotage” is usually unexpanded capacityThe three immediate shifts that increase safety before expansionManifestation isn't about doing more. It's about becoming safe with what you're asking for. When your body feels secure holding the next level, results move naturally instead of forcefully.

It's time to stop glamorizing the things that are secretly destroying you. In this episode, I'm talking about the seemingly harmless habits, personality traits, and lifestyle choices we defend...even when they're keeping us stuck. Wine culture, exhaustion as identity, staying where it's comfortable, calling chaos passion. Many of us are telling ourselves pretty little lies about the way we're living and wonder why we're not reaching out potential. If you're ready to explore the "aesthetic" or glamorous ways you may be subconsioculy sabotaging yourself, this one's for you.

Is self-sabotage the result of rejecting one side of your own duality? Josh Trent welcomes Dr. John Demartini to the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 803, to dismantle the myth of self sabotage, reveal how duality governs perception and destiny, unpack why pride and shame distort authenticity, explore the hidden order behind chaos and so called evil, and show how integrating opposites through the right questions unlocks gratitude, fulfillment, and true self mastery.

What if thriving wasn't about having more, but about choosing differently? Rand Selig has spent a lifetime studying growth, leadership, relationships, and what it truly means to live well. With decades of global experience in business, service, and personal development, Rand believes thriving is not accidental. It's the result of intentional choices made over time. This episode explores how self-reflection, forgiveness, resilience, and personal responsibility shape the quality of our lives. Through thoughtful dialogue, Rand Selig and Chuck Thuss unpack why thriving starts with the relationship you have with yourself, how setbacks can become turning points, and what it takes to stop living on autopilot and start authoring your own story. Guest Bio Rand Selig holds an MBA from Stanford and dual undergraduate degrees in mathematics and psychology. For over 35 years, he has led his own financial services firm while living and working across Europe, Asia, Mexico, and the Caribbean.

Suddenly, the pull to weigh herself or overeat became overwhelming.  We break down what motivation really is, how to soothe yourself when you're anxious, and the psychology behind punishment vs celebration

Randy is back! After a break to welcome a new grandchild, Randy returns with a powerful and vulnerable episode that goes deep into the core of The Gap Thinking Framework. Why do we so often self-sabotage when faced with a new opportunity? Why is our first instinct to say, "I can't" or "I shouldn't"? Randy explains that the answer lies in our "BS" (Beliefs and Stories)—the subconscious programming from our past that dictates our automatic reactions. He shares a deeply personal story about how a "lack mindset" instilled in childhood has held him back for decades, and how it almost stopped him from pursuing a major new business venture just yesterday. In this episode, you'll learn how to identify when you are trapped in a "narrow gap" of old thinking and how to consciously widen that space to choose a different path. Randy challenges the idea that you need to know the "how" before you act, arguing that faith and a belief in your own ability to choose are the real keys to success. This is a masterclass in moving from being a habitual thinker on autopilot to becoming an active thinker who designs their own life. Mentioned in this episode: The Gap Thinking Framework, beliefs and stories (BS), self-sabotage, lack mindset, triggers, narrow vs. wide gap, faith, decision-making, Henry Ford quote, personal development. Ready to identify the patterns that are holding you back? Take the free Gap Thinking Framework Assessment at richmind.co     Key Takeaways: The Gap Thinking Framework is about controlling the critical split-second window between a trigger (stimulus) and your reaction. Most of our life is lived on autopilot, but we can't afford to let our big life decisions be made by habitual thinking. Your "BS" (Beliefs and Stories) are the subconscious programs, often formed in childhood, that dictate your automatic reactions to new opportunities. A "narrow gap" occurs when you instantly revert to old, safe beliefs of "I can't" or "I shouldn't," leading to self-sabotage. You don't need to know the "how" before you take action. The key is to step out in faith and belief, and the resources will appear. Randy shares a transparent example of being triggered by an old "lack mindset" while researching a new business venture and how he overcame it. The famous Henry Ford quote, "Whether you believe you can, or believe you can't, either way, you're correct," is the foundation of this episode.     Questions Answered in This Episode:   Why has there been a break in the podcast episodes? (Hint: A new grandbaby!) How do my childhood beliefs and stories affect my adult decisions? What is a "narrow gap" and how does it lead to self-sabotage? Why do I automatically think "I can't" when presented with a big opportunity? How can I stop letting my past define my future? What do I do when I'm triggered by fear and doubt? Why don't I need to know the full plan before I take the first step? How can I shift from being a "habitual thinker" to an "active thinker"?     Key People, Concepts, & Terms: People: Randy Wilson, Henry Ford, David Neagle.

Do you ever feel like there's a relentless critic living inside your head?   The one that questions your worth, second-guesses your decisions, and tells you that you're not enough — as a husband, father, or leader?   In this powerful and deeply personal conversation, I sit down with Ashleigh Di Lello, founder of Bio Emotional Healing, to unpack the neuroscience behind the inner critic, self-sabotage, chronic stress, and identity. Ashleigh shares her extraordinary story — from being told at 13 she wouldn't survive a rare viral illness, to rebuilding her body and career as an elite dancer, to losing everything again after a failed surgery left her in chronic pain. What she discovered about the brain, the nervous system, and self-compassion doesn't just apply to injury — it applies to every man stuck in anxiety, pressure, and silent self-judgment.   This isn't about positive thinking. It's about understanding how your nervous system works, how identity is formed, and how to rewire the patterns that keep you reactive, disconnected, and exhausted. If you're tired of white-knuckling life and ready for real tools grounded in neuroscience, this episode is for you.     Timeline Summary [0:00] The inner critic most men silently battle [2:05] Ashleigh's diagnosis at 13 and being told she wouldn't survive [18:45] Using mental rehearsal to rebuild neural pathways [26:43] Losing her career after a failed surgery [30:45] Studying neuroscience to "flip the pain switch" [35:12] What harsh self-criticism does to the brain [44:16] The five-minute "container" exercise [59:06] Rewriting identity through intentional self-talk     Five Key Takeaways Harsh self-criticism activates fight-or-flight and blocks growth. Self-compassion is neurological safety — not weakness. Your brain validates whatever identity you reinforce. You can't lie to your brain, but you can guide it. What you suppress gains power — structured processing creates freedom.   Links & Resources: Ashleigh Di Lello Website: https://www.ashleighdilello.com Follow Ashleigh on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ashleighdilello/ Collagen (1st Phorm – what I personally use): https://1stphorm.com/products/collagen-with-dermaval/?a_aid=dadedge Dad Edge Alliance Preview Call: https://thedadedge.com/preview Dad Edge Business Boardroom (Mastermind): https://thedadedge.com/mastermind Episode Shownotes: http://thedadedge.com/1443     Closing Remark If this episode hit home — if you recognized that voice in your head — I challenge you to try the five-minute container exercise this week.

What if the reason you're not achieving the success you want has nothing to do with willpower, discipline, or "trying harder"? In this episode of The Franchise Woman Podcast, Rebecca Monet and Tracy Kawa sit down with Dr. Noah St. John, known worldwide as The Zero-Friction Doctor and The Father of Affirmations, to explore what truly holds people back from success—and how to remove it. Dr. Noah shares his powerful personal story, from growing up in poverty and facing a life-or-death crossroads, to discovering the hidden forces that unconsciously sabotage success. He explains why traditional goal-setting and habit strategies often fail, and why lasting change only happens when we address the 95% of behavior driven by the subconscious mind. In this conversation, you'll learn: Why willpower is one of the weakest tools for change How "hidden friction" acts like an invisible brake on success The difference between procrastination and delayed gratification Why self-sabotage is a symptom—not the root cause How to identify and remove subconscious barriers to growth Dr. Noah's Freedom Lifestyle Formula: time, energy, relationships, and money This episode is a must-watch for entrepreneurs, franchise leaders, and anyone who feels stuck despite doing "all the right things."

Join Nick Lamagna in this raw, no-holds-barred episode of The A Game Podcast: Real Estate Investing for Entrepreneurs, where he sits down with real estate powerhouse Dave Payerchin - a man who's done over 1,000 deals, owned 400+ rental properties, raised $65M in private money, and then lost it ALL… twice. Dave is an investor, an educator and entrepreneur that doesn't hold back: the bankruptcies, the IRS wipeouts, the waiting tables after making $180K his first year, the full-blown alcohol and drug addiction that nearly destroyed his family, and the internal demons that almost ended his comeback for good. He is the founder of Sale House Columbus, Columbus Turnkey Houses and runs a national and local organization known as The CREAM, spreading the knowledge of cash flow, real estate and money with RJ Pepino. But this isn't just another real estate investing podcast.

In this episode of The Jimmy Rex Show, we dive deep into the idea that your brain may be distorting reality more than you realize. The author of Your Brain Is a Filthy Liar explains how childhood inputs create unconscious patterns that shape perception, emotional response, and behavior.We discuss brain pattern mapping, emotional addiction cycles, how perception drives behavior, and why awareness alone isn't enough to create change. If you've ever felt stuck in repeating the same destructive habits, this conversation breaks down how those patterns are formed — and how they can be rewired.Follow Bizzie here: https://www.instagram.com/bizziegold/?hl=en

Are you dimming your light because it feels "safer"?In this powerful episode of Quality Queen Control, Asha Christina confronts why playing small is blocking your blessings, how fear disguised as humility, limiting beliefs, self-sabotage, and shrinking back from your gifts quietly sabotage the abundance, purpose, and breakthroughs God has prepared for you.Blending biblical truth (like hiding your talent in the ground or being a light on a hill), psychology on fear-based patterns, and real-life revelation, Asha reveals the signs you're playing small: settling in relationships, careers, or calling; avoiding risks; people-pleasing over purpose.Learn to break free from false humility, release the fear of shining, reclaim your God-given power, raise your standards, and boldly step into the high-value, abundant life you're destined for no more blocking the flow!This is your divine invitation to stop playing small.Your blessings aren't delayed sometimes they're just waiting for you to stop hiding. Shine unapologetically; the world (and heaven) needs your full light!

We all love the idea of “potential” until it quietly turns into pressure, guilt, and a weird fear of actually trying. Heather Moyse didn't start professional sport until 27 and still became a double Olympic gold medallist. Breaking out of her social safety and truly exploring her potential wasn't easy. We dig into behavioral inertia, self‑sabotage, and the invisible “settings” your environment installs in your brain. Think of this as a mindset update: less motivational quotes, more useful psychology. f you've ever felt stuck in the “nearly” version of your life—nearly starting, nearly committing, nearly backing yourself—this conversation gives you language, mental models, and a few friendly kicks to move. Spot the subtle ways your environment is capping your potential. Replace “be realistic” thinking with experiments that actually feel safe. Build a high‑potential identity without burning out or becoming a robot. Hit play and give your potential something better than another inspirational reel. SPONSORS

In this milestone 100th episode of The Neurodivergent Experience, Jordan James and Simon Scott reflect on self-sabotaging behaviours — from procrastination and perfectionism to impulsivity, addiction, rigid thinking, and negative self-talk.They share personal stories about turning down opportunities, abandoning creative projects, gaming addiction, risk-taking, substance use, phone dependence, and the ways neurodivergent intensity can both fuel success and quietly derail it. The conversation explores how fear of failure, rejection sensitivity, and the need for stimulation often sit beneath these behaviours.From code-switching and conscious camouflaging to asking “do you want my opinion?” before giving it, they reflect on how intentional change, emotional regulation, and meeting people where they are can reduce conflict without losing identity.They discuss:Procrastination, perfectionism, and fear of failureNegative self-talk and rejection sensitivityRisk-taking, addiction, and impulsivityGaming, gambling, substances, and phone dependenceRigid thinking and relationship conflictOversharing and social misstepsAuthenticity vs accountabilityCode-switching and conscious camouflagingMeeting people where they are Learning to pause before speakingA reflective, honest episode about growth, responsibility, and the messy reality of being neurodivergent — 100 episodes in.Our Sponsors:

If you've ever started strong… felt motivated… made the plan… and then “fallen off” — this episode is for you.Because what you've been calling self-sabotage might not be sabotage at all.In this episode of Goddess Got Goals, Lisa explores why falling off the plan is rarely a willpower problem and almost never a character flaw. Instead, it's often a nervous system response to pressure, rigidity, and plans that don't account for energy, hormones, ADHD wiring, or emotional load.You'll learn:• Why most “self-sabotage” is actually self-protection• What's happening biologically when motivation suddenly drops• How perimenopause lowers stress tolerance and changes the rules• Why ADHD brains struggle with rigid, streak-based plans• The hidden reason “just get back on track” makes it worse• How to replace rigid plans with anchors, rhythm, and self-trustThis episode is an invitation to stop shaming yourself for falling off and start building something you can always return to.Because the goal isn't never falling off.The goal is creating a way forward that feels safe enough to sustain.✨ Links mentioned in this episode:• The Quickening — a nervous system reset & re-entry point• Warrior Goddess Archetype Quiz• UnarmouredEnter the Warrior Goddess Saga for your next step:https://thewarriorgoddesssaga.comBe sure to connect with Lisa Barwise and Warrior Goddess Kettlebell Training on social media: Instagram @lisa_barwise @wgkettlebelltraining Facebook www.facebook.com/warriorgoddesskettlebelltrainingYoutubehttps://www.youtube.com/warriorgoddesskettlebelltraining What you can do to help the Podcast?

Repeat after me - some money is NOT better than no money.  In this Sales is NOT a Dirty Word episode, I walk through a real client situation that exposes how easy it is to agree too quickly, stay vague to preserve harmony, or assume clarity will come later.  Those small boundary lapses rarely feel urgent in the moment, but over time they erode trust, damage mental health and compromise results. What this conversation keeps returning to is a simple but often resisted truth: boundaries are not performative self-care. They are structural. They make responsibility, scope, and value explicit, which is what actually protects working relationships. Inside this episode, you will learn: Why exceptions and special arrangements tend to fail without shared context How to articulate scope clearly without defensiveness or rigidity What to say when requests drift beyond what was originally agreed upon Why betting on future potential creates misalignment rather than goodwill The language and reframes to use to prevent difficult conversations later, rather than managing them after the fact If you have ever felt uneasy about an agreement but moved forward anyway, or worried that naming your limits would damage the relationship, this offers a more grounded way forward.

In this episode, Ian sits down with John Assaraf, entrepreneur, behavioral neuroscience educator, and founder of NeuroGym, for a conversation about the invisible forces that shape performance — long after planning, analysis, and good intentions are in place. John shares his personal journey from a turbulent upbringing to building multiple multimillion-dollar businesses, and the pivotal moment at age 19 that reframed how he thought about success, identity, and commitment. From there, the discussion moves into the neuroscience behind habits, automatic behavior, fear, and why people often snap back to familiar results — even when they know what to do. This is not a trading tactics episode. It's a conversation about execution, follow-through, and the human side of performance — in trading, business, health, and life. About the guest: John Assaraf is a serial entrepreneur who has built multiple multimillion-dollar companies, including helping scale a real estate organization to over $4 billion in annual sales and co-founding a technology company that later went public on the NASDAQ. He is the founder and CEO of NeuroGym, where he focuses on applying neuroscience to performance, habits, and behavior change. John is also the author of several New York Times bestselling books, translated into dozens of languages, and has been featured in films such as The Secret, where many people were first introduced to his work.   Links + Resources:  Free eBook: The Power of Visualization    Sponsor of Chat With Traders Podcast:  Trade The Pool:  http://www.tradethepool.com   Time Stamps: Please note: Exact times will vary depending on current ads.   00:00   Intro and Background 11:16   Mindset Shift: Interested vs. Committed 11:46   Behavioral Neuroscience and Goal Achievement 16:17   Conscious vs. Subconscious Mind 17:12   Creating Permanent Behavioral Changes 21:22   Emotional Regulation and Decision Making 25:30   Overcoming Self-Sabotage 35:20   AddressingFear in Decision Making 42:37   Inner Size: Exercising the Mind 44:27   Self-Sabotage and Financial Set Points 48:21   The Science of Goal Setting 50:17   Visualizing and Embodying Goals 54:40   How to reach John   Trading Disclaimer: Trading in the financial markets involves a risk of loss.

In this week's Q&A episode on The Brad Jensen Show, Craig and I sat down and answered some of the most real world questions we see from clients, coaches, and high performers trying to level up across life. We talked about the hardest part of starting a business and honestly, it usually is not strategy. It is managing uncertainty, self doubt, and staying consistent when results are not immediate. We shared what challenged us the most early on and what we wish we knew sooner. We also dug into client retention as a personal trainer or coach. I broke down what actually keeps people long term and it is not just workouts or macros. It is connection, trust, and helping people become someone new, not just do something new. We answered the question of whether lifting six days per week is too much. Like most things in fitness, it depends. We talked about recovery, training intent, life stress, and how to know if you are progressing or just surviving workouts. Another big topic was how long someone should realistically work with a coach. We talked about when coaching becomes less about information and more about identity, accountability, and long term lifestyle integration. Craig brought a really powerful lens to the conversation around avoidant tendencies and how they show up everywhere. Not just relationships, but business, health, communication, and even goal setting. We talked about how to recognize those patterns and what to do when you see them. We also touched on a handful of other training and nutrition questions that came up from listeners and clients this week. If you are trying to build something, improve your body, or just become more self aware in how you move through life, this episode will hit.   Next Level Links: Nutrition Coaching Free Consultations - Schedule Here Nutrition Coaching - www.becomenextlevel.com   Partner Links: Try Thrive  Lab Free For One Month - Start Here Order Supplements From Transform - Shop Here Order Supplements From Cured Nutrition - Shop Here Order Supplements From Legion (use code keynutrition for 20% off first order) - Shop Here   Be Featured on the Show: Apply to be a live calller guest on the show - Submit Application Here Submit Q&A Questions to be read live on the show - Submit Here   Free Guides: Eating Out Guide - Get The Guide High-Protein Fast Food Orders - Get the Guide Macro Food Options Guide - Get The Guide Join Us On Patreon - Join Here   Connect with us on Instagram: Host Brad Jensen – @thesoberbodybuilder Co-Host Craig Smith - @greatestdaymindset Next Level Nutrition – @mynextlevelnutrition

Learn why working harder won't fix your business — but changing your internal dialog will create everything you want.If you're working 12-hour days, grinding harder than ever, but still stuck with the same results — this episode reveals the real problem. It's not your work ethic. It's not your strategy. It's the conversation happening in your mind that's sabotaging everything you're trying to build. Yuri Elkaim breaks down the neuroscience and metaphysics of subconscious reprogramming and shows you exactly how to align your internal world with your external efforts.You'll learn how your inner dialog creates your reality more powerfully than any amount of hustle, why repetition in your mind beats objective truth every time, and the specific daily practice that reprograms your subconscious to manifest the business and life you want. This isn't manifestation fluff — it's a practical framework used by Healthpreneur clients generating six, seven, and eight figures.Inside this episode:

In this episode of the Her Promise Circle Podcast, Michal Renee speaks candidly about the work most people avoid: facing yourself.She breaks down why true freedom doesn't come from distractions, hustle, or spiritual bypassing—but from being willing to look honestly at your patterns, fears, and coping mechanisms. This conversation centers on how self-trust is built through action (not perfection), why community is preventative care, and how faith becomes transformative when it's paired with real support and lived practice.She explains how facing herself, mentorship, community , and consistency in self awareness and pursuing God ended self sabotage and completely quantum leaped her into this new level in life. Michal Renee also unpacks the difference between loving from lack versus loving from wholeness—and how unhealed places can quietly shape our relationships, decisions, and burnout cycles. This episode is an invitation to stop running from yourself and start building a life rooted in wholeness, resilience, and truth.

This Mindset Debrief episode is a short-form reflection on personal accountability, discipline, and self-leadership for people navigating pressure, responsibility, and growth. In this episode, we focus on: Avoiding discomfort can disguise as being practical, but it holds you backIf you keep telling yourself you're not afraid of discomfort, but you keep saying “now's not the right time” or “I've got to be smart about this,” this episode puts a spotlight on what's really getting avoided. It's usually not the work. It's the feeling that comes with the work: awkwardness, being exposed, looking unprepared, being wrong. You'll hear how avoiding uncomfortable feelings can feel like control in the moment, but it's a trade. Short-term emotional relief gets purchased with limited long-term improvement, and the cost shows up later. A line from Amy Morin frames it simply: avoidance offers immediate relief, but it can create long-term consequences. The episode breaks down how avoidance can shrink your world over time. You say no more often. Hesitation gets longer. What starts as “stability” turns into a quieter kind of stuck. It also draws a clean line between recovery and retreat. One helps you move forward. The other just keeps you comfortable. There are concrete places this shows up at work: dodging difficult conversations, staying in roles where you already know the game, and avoiding real feedback. Not encouragement, not validation, but the kind of input that exposes blind spots and tests your confidence. When you stay slightly invisible, you stay static, and static is falling behind in slow motion. It also calls out the cover stories: “practical,” “rational,” “protecting my energy,” “I don't want the added responsibility.” If you feel defensive when someone questions a “practical” choice, that's a cue to ask: if discomfort wasn't part of this, would you still choose the same thing?Share this episode with someone who could benefit from the information.CONNECT WITH THE PODCAST:IG: https://www.instagram.com/paulpantani/WEBSITE: https://www.transitiondrillpodcast.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulpantani/SIGN-UP FOR THE NEWSLETTER:https://transitiondrillpodcast.com/home#aboutQUESTIONS OR COMMENTS:paul@transitiondrillpodcast.com

You're not lazy.You're not unmotivated.So why do you keep almost starting?In this episode, we unpack the real reason you feel stuck in “almost” almost launching, almost committing, almost becoming the next version of you.This isn't just procrastination. It's self-protection.We talk about: • Why procrastination is often nervous system protection • The psychology of self-sabotage • Why pushing harder hasn't worked • The identity gap between who you are and who your dream requires • How to build self-trust without burning yourself outIf you've been stuck in cycles of motivation, discipline, and frustration — this will make sense.Because the issue isn't willpower.It's capacity.And when you build capacity, momentum becomes natural.This episode is for the woman who has big dreams but is tired of feeling behind.You're not behind.You're building.FREE resources to further support you on your self-development journey: DATE YOURSELF FIRST MASTERCLASS HERE 'Your Internal Glow-Up Guide 'FREEBIE !

Host: Dr. Susan Buttross, Professor of Pediatrics at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, and Abram NanneyGuest(s): Dr. Anson WalkerTopic: Self-sabotage happens when our behaviors or thoughts and actions get in the way of our goals whether at work or in personal relationships. So what makes us exhibit behaviors that work against us? The actions could be rooted in poor self-esteem, fear of rejection or the fear of failure or maybe something else. Today we'll be talking with Dr. Anson Walker about the possible causes of self-sabotage and how we can self-correct.You can join the conversation by sending an email to: family@mpbonline.org. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this episode, Sophie Vo dives into the fifth self-sabotage pattern, known as the 'survivor syndrome,' where leaders prefer to do tasks alone and rarely ask for help. We revisit the previous patterns like shutting down intuition, people-pleasing, leading from fear, and having an empty cup. Sophie shares her personal story of growing up in an immigrant family where she had to take on responsibilities at a young age. This pattern, born from early experiences of mistrust and betrayal, impacts professional and personal life. She suggests examining the origins of this distrust and encourages small experiments towards trusting others to break this self-sabotage cycle. Trust cannot develop by thinking alone; it has to be practiced. The episode concludes with grounding meditation and journaling exercises to help listeners reflect and reprogram behaviors to stop sabotaging themselves.Extra resources recommended:* It Didn't Start With You (by Marc Wolynn)* Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents (Lindsy Gibson)* Life is a Game.

You don't lack talent.You don't lack discipline.You're not lazy.You're overthinking.And it might be the one thing quietly slowing your progress.In this episode of SAUNAIE, we talk about self-sabotage — the subtle ways we delay, hesitate, and talk ourselves out of opportunities even when we know we're capable.Because sometimes the biggest obstacle isn't the world…It's our own thoughts.We break down:• Why overthinking feels productive but kills action• The psychology behind procrastination & perfectionism• Why fear shows up as “planning”• How self-doubt impacts Black male entrepreneurs differently• The science behind confidence and action• Simple systems to stop overthinking and start movingIf you've ever said “I'm not ready yet” or “I need more time” — this episode is for you.Messy action beats perfect hesitation.Always.

Why do you self-sabotage right when things start going well?If you've ever noticed yourself pulling back, procrastinating, numbing out, picking fights, or blowing up momentum just as life improves — this episode of Mental Health School will help you understand why.Self-sabotage isn't self-hatred. It's self-protection based on identity.In this episode, we explore how your self-image acts like an internal thermostat for success — and why results that exceed your internal identity can trigger anxiety, discomfort, and unconscious sabotage.You'll learn:• Why self-sabotage often shows up during success• How self-image and identity shape behavior more than willpower• Why progress, peace, and stability can feel unsafe• How expectation determines what we're able to receive• Why affirmations work only when they gently expand identity• How to update your self-image without force or pressureFrom both psychological and nervous-system perspectives, this episode explains why we act in alignment with who we believe we are — even when it undermines our conscious goals.You'll also be guided through a powerful affirmation practice designed to help your subconscious mind become familiar with success, ease, and stability — so you don't feel the urge to destroy what you're building.If you struggle with:• self-sabotage patterns• success anxiety• discomfort when things go well• fear of losing momentum• difficulty receiving good outcomesthis episode will help you shift from “doing better” to becoming someone who can hold good things without breaking them.You are not broken. You are updating an identity.

That's why I love working with herbal allies that support the nervous system, immune system, and sleep naturally, instead of forcing or overriding the body. These three legendary blends from WishGarden Herbs are ones I personally trust and come back to again and again: Deep Stress Daily Calm is my go-to when life feels relentless. Chronic stress impacts hormones, immunity, energy, and mood — not just mentally, but physically. This blend features ashwagandha and nourishing nervine herbs that help calm the stress response both in the moment and over time. It supports healthier cortisol patterns, steadier energy, improved sleep quality, and a more balanced mood — helping the body shift out of constant high gear and back into regulation. When stress shows up as a racing mind at night, Sleepy Nights & Fresh Mornings is such a gentle yet powerful support. I love that it's formulated without melatonin, valerian, or kava, so it supports natural sleep rhythms without dependency or morning grogginess. Whether taken before bed or during unwanted night wakings, it helps calm the mind so the body can settle into deeper, more restorative sleep. And when you start to feel that familiar "something's coming on" feeling, Kick-Ass Immune Activator is what I reach for. This fast-acting blend supports immune and respiratory health right when the body needs it most — helping you respond early instead of waiting until you're already depleted. Because supporting your immune system proactively makes a massive difference. What I love most about WishGarden Herbs is that their formulas are USDA Certified Organic, non-GMO, gluten-free, vegan, and crafted to work with the body's innate intelligence. These aren't quick fixes — they're true herbal allies. Discover the natural power of WishGarden Herbs' legendary blends and save 20% on your order with code NOSUGARCOATING.

Nutrition Nugget! Bite-sized bonus episodes offer tips, tricks and approachable science. This week, Jenn is talking about the C-C-C, which stands for Catch, Challenge, Change. Do your negative thoughts secretly sabotage your health goals? When that inner voice says "you're too busy," "you have no willpower," or "you've failed again," is it telling the truth or just repeating old patterns that hold you back? Jenn introduces a practical mental tool to interrupt the defeating thought loops we all experience on our wellness journeys. But here's the real question: are you actually too tired for that workout, or is something else going on? Could the "evidence" of failure actually be hiding signs of progress you're refusing to see? Jenn breaks down how to catch these negative thoughts in action, challenge the beliefs behind them, and ultimately transform your inner dialogue. But the approach might surprise you. Is it really about being "1% better every day," or is there a more realistic way to build mental toughness without the pressure? Like what you're hearing?

Ever crushed your own dream before it had a chance? Or shut someone else down thinking you were being helpful? This episode hits all those moments we rarely admit but deeply feel. Phoenix Ash returns, fresh from a sinus battle and ready to get honest about sabotage. Not just the kind people throw at you, but the kind that sounds like perfectionism or “being realistic.” She unpacks how fear disguises itself as logic, how self-doubt poisons motivation, and how even love can come out as limitation.

Dr. Schnell emphasizes the importance of sleep in maintaining motivation and focus, and how a well-rested brain can help disrupt self-sabotaging behaviors.   Dr. Schnell also explains the psychological effects of childhood trauma and how they shape our current behaviors.

Have you ever noticed yourself repeating the same patterns—even when you know better? In this episode, I'm joined by Xavier Dagba for a deeply honest conversation about the shadow side of our inner lives. We explore the parts of ourselves we've learned to hide: old emotional wounds, unmet needs, and traits we've labeled as “unacceptable.” Xavier also introduces the idea of the golden shadow—the disowned strengths, gifts, and radiance we often keep just as hidden as our pain. Xavier is a transformational coach, speaker, and author known for his grounded, trauma-informed approach to shadow integration and self-liberation. Drawing from depth psychology, embodied healing, and spiritual wisdom, he helps people dissolve self-sabotage and live with greater wholeness and integrity. He is also the creator of The Embodied Light Project and host of the Enheartened. In our conversation, we talk about resistance, self-sabotage, and why meaningful change can feel so challenging—even when it's deeply desired. This episode offers practical insights into recognizing your shadow, working with it compassionately, and integrating all parts of yourself so you can live in a more grounded, authentic way.
