739: Why You Keep Sabotaging Your Own Joy And How to Stop (Mindset & Self-Care)

Even when life is good, it's easy to resist joy out of fear or discomfort. This episode reveals why we sabotage our own happiness and how to finally soften, stay present, and let joy all the way in. Have you ever felt like life is good, maybe even great, yet something inside you won't let you fully enjoy it? I've noticed this pattern in myself and realized that often we subtly shut out joy out of fear, discomfort, or self-protection. In this episode, I share honest reflections and practical steps to stop sabotaging your happiness so you can experience more peace, presence, and connection. Action Plan: - Name the resistance: Acknowledge out loud when you feel yourself pulling away from joy. - Stay in the moment longer: Allow hugs, laughter, or silence to linger without rushing to distraction. - Start a joy journal: Record times when joy knocked but you resisted, and explore why. - Practice receiving: Accept compliments and gifts without deflection to expand your capacity for joy. - Repeat joy affirmations: Use affirmations like "It is safe to feel this good" to retrain your nervous system.
