Why is change so uncomfortable...even when you know it’s exactly what you need?

This week Josh & Liam dive into the psychology behind resisting change, from fitness journeys and dieting to careers, relationships and big life decisions. They unpack why routines feel safe, how fear keeps people stuck and why making mistakes is often the fastest way to grow. The conversation also touches on coaching, AI, human connection and why the biggest changes often start with simply ripping the band-aid off.
