Why We Avoid What We Know We Should Do — And How To Break The Pattern
We all avoid things we know would move us forward — the workout, the routine, the conversation, the next step.
Avoidance isn’t laziness — it’s protection.
Your brain is trying to keep you safe from failure, discomfort, or not being perfect.
In this episode, we talk about:
- why avoidance actually happens
- the fears hiding underneath it
- the loop that keeps you stuck
- how to take simple, doable steps forward — without shame
Big takeaway:
Avoidance isn’t a flaw. Once you create safety + take tiny action, the pattern loses power.
🎯 Your challenge:
Pick one thing you’ve been avoiding — and take one imperfect step today.
DM me: “I did it.” I want to celebrate you.
You’re not behind — you’re growing.
