Summary

Today, I’m exploring how we can break free from procrastination, perfectionism, and pleasing people. These patterns keep us stuck, and I’m here to help you move beyond them so you can start living a purpose-driven, soul-aligned life.

I’m sharing one of my favorite tools - The Adult Chair® model - which helps us work with different parts of ourselves, like our inner child and adolescent parts, to create real, lasting change from the inside out. I’ll walk you through practical steps to connect with these parts, understand their roles, and begin transforming them. I’m also sharing client stories and guided exercises to help you apply this work in your own life.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

How to move past procrastination, perfectionism, and people pleasing
Practical steps to connect with, understand, and transform your parts
Client stories and real-life examples that bring this process to life
Guided imagery and simple tools you can start using today
