So many of us think the question “What do I want?” should feel simple… but the moment you try to answer it, something unexpected happens. Your imagination narrows, your possibilities shrink, and suddenly the future feels farther away than ever. Today, I’m pulling back the curtain on why that happens — and what it really means for getting your goal.

In this "advanced concept" episode, you’ll learn the surprising way your brain predicts your future, how it quietly redirects you back to your comfort zone, and why even the most ambitious goals can start to feel heavy or impossible.

And here’s the best part: once you understand what's going on, you can work with it instead of getting derailed by it.

If you’ve ever wondered why your journaling feels flat, why your vision won’t “light up,” or why imagining your future self sometimes feels worse instead of better, this episode will shift everything for you.
