When Old Patterns Knock Again
Aug 12, 2025 Season 2 Episode 190
Stephanie Allen & Maren Oslac

“Why is that coming up AGAIN? I dealt with that!”

Have you felt like that? You think, ‘I've been here. I've done this already.’ 

When that shows up, do you get frustrated, assume you did something wrong and beat yourself up about it? Or do you get curious and excited?

Today’s podcast will give you a perspective that goes beyond the judgement of right and wrong; a perspective that will empower and liberate you AND you’ll even begin to find joy in those normally irritating repeat offenders!

Maren and Stephanie bring their insights, wisdom and humor to this timeless tale to both help you see the opportunities and own the results of the work you put in.

They share a ton of great questions like, “what if it's that I did something right and I've grown into the next level of this challenge?” and “Ok, I've been here before, (even if it's something magnificently wonderful) what were the conditions, the skills that I was practicing that perhaps led me to this?”

If the old ‘why me’ story is no longer working for you …and you’re willing to do a bit of introspection, today’s podcast will literally change your life.
