Ep 210 Stuck In A Moment

Summary:

In this engaging episode, I had the pleasure of diving deep into the world of my sub-personalities so allow me to introduce you to my own inner saboteur, Ronnie.

I found him lurking during a candid conversation with my chosen 'bro Paul. Further investigation led to an eye-opening revelation about how Ronnie works hand-in-hand with another subpersonality of mine Gladys, my inner critic. WTF - like I really needed them to gang-up against me!

This dynamic duo often conspires to have me play small and prevent me from reaching my potential. Throughout the episode, I unravel the complexities behind these internal characters and share insights into why embracing rather than shunning them is crucial for personal growth.

Key Points:

• Understanding subpersonalities and how they impact personal development.
• Understanding and integrating internal saboteurs to our advantage.
• Self-awareness is a powerful internal GPS for overcoming psychological barriers.
