Summary

Wellness + Wisdom Podcast Host and Wellness Force Media CEO, Josh Trent, shares how to identify and get rid of self-sabotage.

In this solocast, you will learn:

  • How self-sabotage unconsciously hinders our success.
  • Why wounded ego is the reason why we self-sabotage.
  • The disconnect between what we want and how we show up in our life.
  • How we act out unconsciously what we see from our parents until we heal.
  • The way intimate relationships can drive low insecure attachment style, self-worth, fear of getting heartbroken, and fear of commitment.
  • Cognitive dissonance: Holding two conflicting ideas at the same time, one being conscious and the other one unconscious.
  • How self-sabotage leads to chronic struggles.
  • Procrastination and perfectionism: Trauma response and defense mechanism.
  • How breathing and being still stops self-sabotage, and why we need the courage to turn toward the root of the repeated cycle.
  • What is our self-sabotage wanting to teach us?

This is Josh Trent and in this solo cast, we're going deep into the concept of self-sabotage,

0:05.4

which is perfect timing. Whether you're hearing this live on the day it's published or months

0:10.1

or years from now, it still has the same weight and the capacity to up level and change your life.

0:15.6

That is my promise that by the end of the solo cast, if you give this a chance, if you really listen and tune in to the

0:22.6

message that you're receiving today, this has the potential to shift and change your life.

0:27.6

I'm going to give you an actionable guide as well as some science and spirituality behind self-sabotage.

0:32.5

Why do we do it? How do we stop the cycle? How do we unhinge from the very thing that we know is causing us pain,

0:38.8

but we just aren't aware of what the root of that thing actually is? Well, look, it may seem

0:44.3

shocking some people undermine their own good intentions and long-term success goals because

0:48.9

self-sabotage occurs in the shadows, where people hinder their own success and take destructive

0:54.7

steps without actually knowing why they do it.

Maybe some deeper part of them knows it's because their harmful behavior shows up in the

1:02.3

results of their lives, which negatively impacts nearly every part of their existence,

1:07.4

including money, relationships, career, health, you name it, self-sabotage shows up in so many

1:13.4

deleterious ways. There's a part of you that is excited about the year ahead. There's a part of you

1:18.9

that knows where you've been in the year behind. But what is the part of you in the middle that

1:22.9

knows you are already whole and complete and loved and accepted for exactly who you are.

1:28.7

And what do you need to support that?

1:30.8

To build a scaffolding of resources, people, supplementation, behavioral practices, anything

1:37.0

and everything to remind you on a daily basis that you are loved, you are supported, and

1:42.0

you're on the right path.
