It's a self-fulfilling prophecy.\" In this episode, Heather explores the uncomfortable space between knowing something needs to change and actually being willing to change it. For high-performing women, that gap is often filled with overthinking, fixing, researching, controlling, and searching for the \"right\" answer instead of taking the actions that will move them forward. This conversation is an invitation to stop waiting for the perfect plan, the perfect feeling, or the perfect timing and start moving. Because growth, freedom, and alignment are rarely found inside your comfort zone (which is what therapy tends to become), they're uncovered once you're willing to face the discomfort of uncertainty, make the decisions you've been avoiding, and start trusting yourself enough to discover who you'll become on the other side.

And when you do that, it gets really uncomfortable because you begin to think differently. \" ☑️ Losing trust in yourself because you never had true self-trust to begin with ☑️ We create codependency through scarcity so that we don't have to feel ☑️ The reason why you can't see how much you're living from fear \"Reading another parenting book, sending your child to therapy, or going to therapy is your comfort zone.
