Stop self-sabotage and procrastination today. Discover why "Self-Toxicity" is keeping you stuck and learn the 5 steps to overcome the fear of success and unlock your breakthrough.

You aren’t lazy, and you aren’t a failure. You are likely caught in a hidden pattern I call "Self-Toxicity."

In this episode of the Do Say Be Breakthrough Podcast, we explore the silent war between your comfort zone and your calling. We often think sabotage looks like laziness, but it usually mimics exhaustion, perfectionism, or "researching." If you find yourself "ghosting your goals" or causing chaos right when things are going well, this guide will help you interrupt the pattern.

We discuss the spiritual battle of purpose vs. pattern, why we protect ourselves from growth, and the practical tools you need to rewrite your identity.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:
