What happens when the familiar comfort of negative self-talk and procrastination becomes the biggest obstacle to our happiness? This episode promises a deep discussion with neurocognition expert Bizzie Gold, who sheds light on the destructive patterns of self-deception we often fall into. Bizzie and I dissect how these mental traps, like justifications and excuses, subtly sabotage our goals. With relatable examples—like the simple act of putting off chores—we explore how these patterns can be recognized and disrupted to foster genuine, sustainable change in our lives.
