1347: The Whole Truth (and Nothing But the Truth)
About this episode
We're quick to spot the truth in other people's choices: "If he would just manage his time better…" "If she'd finish one thing before starting the next…"
But when it comes to our own patterns? The truth feels harder to see — and even harder to admit.
In this episode, I'm digging into the critical practice of telling yourself the truth — the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Because the stories we tell ourselves don't have to be true to shape our lives. They just have to go unopposed.
You'll hear:
-
Why it's easier to analyze their problems than to face our own
-
How "permissive phrases" like "I'll start tomorrow" or "I need this to take the edge off" quietly run the show
-
A client story that shows exactly how to challenge vague justifications and uncover the truth
-
The difference between evaluation (judging yourself) and coaching (creating a way forward)
-
A simple 3-step challenge to practice radical honesty and break free from excuses and procrastination
If you've ever wondered why you keep starting over, why you feel stuck in cycles of "I'll do better tomorrow," or why it's so much easier to see solutions for other people than for yourself — this episode will be a game-changer.
✨ Your breakthrough is on the other side of one question: "What's the truth here?"
