While we like to think that we are adaptable beings who can handle change well, the truth is that for most people, it takes a major event, diagnosis, or catastrophe to spark that change. Today’s guest, Yaffa Palti, helps us understand this. Yaffa explains that most people get used to a certain level of discomfort or pain in their lives, so they really don’t think about the changes they could be making to mitigate those discomforts.You’ll hear:Why people get stuck in their discomfortHow emotional traumas manifest themselves physicallyThe #1 blocker of hope Why it’s difficult trying to change in isolationThe one behavior that allows you to take no responsibility for your outcomes in life (and how to change it!)What actually allows you to achieve success What Rosh Hashanah is and how you could be using this theory in your daily lives And more!More about Yaffa:A born and bred Flatbush girl, Yaffa has always been gifted in connecting with people.
