TRUE Wellness with Dr. Dee

The Real Reason Motivation Fails (It’s Not Laziness or Discipline) | Dr. Dee & Kam Knight

Dr. Dee Season 2 Episode 57

You can want change more than anything and still feel stuck.

In this episode of the TRUE Wellness Podcast, Dr. Dee sits down with Kam Knight to uncover the invisible force inside the brain that quietly blocks action, motivation, and follow-through. It’s not laziness. It’s not lack of discipline. It’s biology.

Kam breaks down:

  • Why desire and action come from different parts of the brain
  • How internal resistance protects identity, comfort, and safety
  • Why willpower fails and what actually works instead
  • Simple tools like self-talk and mental rehearsal that rewire resistance

This conversation will change how you see procrastination, self-sabotage, and “starting over.”
