In this episode, we’re unpacking a sneaky pattern that quietly runs so many people’s lives without them even realizing it: being addicted to the struggle. The belief that things have to be hard, that success must come through suffering, or that love only “counts” if you fight for it. Sound familiar? 👀I’m sharing a powerful realization I had recently that completely shifted how I see success, identity, and the patterns we repeat in life and relationships. Because the truth is, sometimes we unconsciously keep ourselves stuck in struggle — not because we want to suffer, but because that identity has been meeting deeper needs like validation, control, or feeling worthy.We talk about how this shows up in business, dating, and anxious attachment — especially when you find yourself repeating the same dynamics over and over again. I break down why awareness alone isn’t enough to create change, the identity shifts that actually move the needle, and the role courage plays when it’s finally time to step into a new version of yourself.If you’ve ever felt like you’re taking two steps forward and three steps back… or like life and love always have to feel like a battle — this episode is your loving wake-up call.In this episode, you’ll learn:• Why so many of us unconsciously attach our worth to how hard we struggle• The surprising way your identity can keep you repeating the same patterns in business and relationships• How anxious attachment can keep you drawn to familiar chaos instead of secure love• The three steps required to actually break a pattern (not just understand it)• The role courage plays in finally becoming the person you say you want to be🎧 Tune in now!
