EP 24 – Why Do I Sabotage Good Things — Even When I Want Them?
When something good shows up — a healthy relationship, a new opportunity, a moment of peace — do you tense, pick it apart, or pull away? This episode explores how self-sabotage is often self-protection in disguise, rooted in nervous system memory and emotional survival patterns. We’ll unpack why chaos can feel more familiar than calm, and how to start receiving goodness without flinching. If you're tired of getting in your own way, this episode will help you understand — and interrupt — the cycle.
