Summary

In this episode, I delve into a caller's struggles with procrastination, self-sabotage, and rural isolation, as we navigate through personal challenges and aspirations towards personal growth and fulfillment. Through metaphors like designing a house as a metaphor for life goals, we explore issues of weight loss, familial dynamics, childhood experiences, emotional processing, and the complexities of managing physical and emotional well-being. The conversation also touches upon childhood neglect and abuse, emotional repercussions, confronting past trauma, and the importance of understanding and healing. We discuss the impact of childhood experiences on behavior, relationships, and personal growth, emphasizing the need for self-awareness, acceptance, and accountability for one's well-being and healing journey.

0:00.7

Hey, how's it going?

0:02.3

Very good.

0:03.6

The first, I just wanted to apologize for kind of being in a grump, kind of before I've assumed, assuming makes an ass out of you and me, but it was me that time. I do apologize for that. It was a good helpful lesson, and, you know, we all do it. So it's good to be reminded for everyone. No problem at all. So, yeah, so I got your message and do you want to lay it out for me how I can best help you?

0:24.6

Yeah. be reminded for everyone. No problem at all. So, yeah, so I got your message and do you want to

0:21.7

lay it out for me how I can best help you? Yeah. Well, I'm hoping that the issue that I have is

0:27.8

something just kind of silly and technical that, like, that could be applied to anyone regardless

0:32.9

of like, you know, I don't want it to be, oh, like, woe is me kind of like, you know, tough life, all that stuff. It's like, I don't, I don't like doing that because it's not, it's, uh, like kind of being in like a spiral or kind of like a, I feel like I'm in a negative feedback loop. I don't know, like, what your opinion is of, of like, you're just stuck on kind of like the ruts that you're in. you don't know what your opinion is of that of like,

0:57.8

you're stuck on kind of like the ruts that you're in.

0:59.3

You don't know how to get out of them.

1:05.0

There's probably something very obvious that you're missing or maybe I'm lying to myself about things of what I actually want to do.

1:08.8

And I'm,

1:09.5

I guess I'm full of shit to myself. I don't think so. Like, the issue that I have, just like a technical one is mainly procrastination to the point where it's, it looks like it's going to, I mean, at the moment right now, it's, it's, uh, 5 a. And I'm trying to catch up with, like, I talk about procrastination and kind of putting things off.

1:29.9

It's like, I've left, even though I have every incentive to do the right thing or to do something that benefits me.

1:38.5

1:44.3

But I have something that is actually really good that I keep on delaying and just filling it with just nothing.

1:53.0

I look back and I'm doing nothing and I'm really worried like at the moment of thinking, well, I'm either going to crash and just burn

2:01.8

out and then like I don't know like, you know, I don't want to think about that, but I,

2:08.0

but I have to because I can, I can feel that coming and I'm like I, I don't know what to
