In this episode of Rooted Radiance, Nicole breaks down the real reasons women self‑sabotage their goals and how to finally break the cycle with compassion, clarity, and identity‑based habits.
Self‑sabotage isn’t laziness or lack of discipline. It’s a protective pattern rooted in fear, overwhelm, perfectionism, and old identities that no longer fit. Nicole walks you through the most common ways self‑sabotage shows up in daily life, the deeper psychological and emotional causes behind it, and the three powerful steps you can take to stop getting in your own way.
You’ll learn how to recognize your patterns, remove the pressure that keeps you stuck, and build the identity of the woman you’re becoming, one small promise at a time.
If you’re ready to stop repeating the same habits every year and finally follow through on the goals that matter to you, this episode will give you the tools and encouragement you need.
