#150 Do you complain a lot?

About this episode

Most of us don’t think we complain very much — until we actually pay attention.

In today’s episode, I share what I discovered when I started noticing my own complaints, and why these seemingly small moments matter more than we realize. Complaining isn’t just a habit — it creates a subtle contraction in the body that makes it harder for joy to land and stay.

You’ll hear:

  • why we rarely notice when we’re complaining
  • how complaining tightens the body and shifts our emotional state
  • the surprising things my students discovered during a “no complaining” experiment
  • why stopping the cycle isn’t about being positive — it’s about giving the body room to feel something new
