S25E30 Resentment- The Loop That Keeps You Small

Why do we come down hardest on ourselves right before a breakthrough? In this episode, Sahar Huneidi Palmer unpacks the resentment loop—how guilt and perfectionism keep you stuck—and how to stop punishing yourself so you can finally move forward.

This is about the moment when you’re finally about to change—and instead, you criticise yourself for not changing sooner. It’s a pattern I see in my life mentoring work all the time. In Season 25, Episode 30: Resentment: The Loop That Keeps You Small – Stop Punishing Yourself, we’ll cover:

• Why growth triggers guilt
• How to break the cycle of needing permission
• Why compassion—not self-criticism—is what actually moves you forward
• Practical steps using the BEMA™ Methodology to shift your story

Today we’re talking about resentment—the loop that keeps you small.
It’s the pattern where you come down on yourself just when you’re about to grow.
Instead of celebrating progress, you punish yourself for not changing sooner.
We’ll explore how to break that cycle using the BEMA Methodology.
So stay with me as we rewrite the story you tell yourself.
