What if you’re not stuck, inconsistent, or self-sabotaging—
What if you’re just protecting yourself in ways that no longer serve you?

In this episode, I walk you through one of the most important shifts I’ve ever made: moving from self-protection to self-leadership.

You’ll learn how the nervous system stores survival strategies, why your old patterns keep showing up (even when you “know better”), and what it actually looks like to rebuild your life from self-trust—not fear.

We’ll go deep into:

• How to recognize when your past is leading
• Why “fixing yourself” keeps you stuck
• How to meet the part of you that’s been trying to keep you safe
• What self-leadership really means—and how to start living it now

This is the episode you come back to when you feel like you’re slipping into old patterns again.

🎧 Press play when you're ready to stop performing safety—and start embodying it.
