Episode 20: Understanding Self-Sabotage: Transform Your Mindset for Growth

Do you ever feel like you’re standing in your own way? That little inner voice, your inner critic, can sometimes go too far and turn into self-sabotage—keeping you stuck in patterns that don’t serve you. In this episode, we break down what self-sabotage really is, why it shows up, and how we unconsciously punish ourselves. I share real-life examples and practical ways to recognize these patterns, check in with yourself, and start aligning with your positive truth.

You’ll discover how to:

• Spot self-sabotage before it takes hold
• Understand the role of your inner critic and ego
• Recognize patterns that keep you stuck or in reverse
• Identify triggers like fear, negative beliefs, or low self-esteem
• Take small, intentional steps to transform your mindset
• Build awareness of your habits, routines, and emotional responses
• Start shifting out of unhelpful patterns toward personal growth

If you’re ready to stop letting fear, doubt, or old patterns hold you back, this episode gives you tools to create clarity, growth, and a life more aligned with your true potential.
