553. What to Do When It's Not Working

Better Than Happy

Show Notes

When you're doing everything you're "supposed" to do and it's still not working… what then?

Whether it's your marriage, your parenting, your business, or your health goals, there comes a point where the strategies you're trying don't seem to be producing the results you expected. And in that moment, your brain wants to tell you something has gone wrong. Maybe it won't work for you. Maybe you're not cut out for this. Maybe you should just quit.

Join me this week as I walk you through what's actually happening when it feels like nothing is working. I explain the natural stages of growth, why the uncomfortable "river of misery" phase is not a sign that you're failing, but a normal and necessary part of becoming competent at anything meaningful, and three powerful tools to help you keep going without unnecessary suffering.
