Summary

Most people don’t fail their goals because they’re “inconsistent”… they fail because their nervous system never felt safe enough to reach them. In this eye-opening episode of the Jamie Sea show, Jamie and co-coach Brigitte break down why traditional goal-setting creates overwhelm, burnout, and self-judgment. Plus they introduce the technique their clients use to create goals that actually stick.

If you're ready to set goals that feel aligned, grounded, and fully possible… press play.
