#13 The Easy Thing That's Getting In Your Way of Your Goals
We all have them—those pesky habits that we just can't seem to shake. They might be minor things, like scrolling on our phones longer than intended, or bigger issues, like consistently sacrificing sleep for Netflix.
The problem with bad habits is that they rob us of time and energy. And, when we’re tired and exhausted, we tend to rely on bad habits to make us feel better (think scrolling on Instagram, unnecessarily spending money or overeating).
No matter what the habit is, it's frustrating when we can't seem to break it. But don't worry, you're not alone. This week, we’re going to do a deep dive into why we tend to hit the easy button from time to time.
What’s inside this episode…
