From Comfort to Growth: Why Working on Fluency Feels Awkward

“Stepping out of your comfort zone is like a muscle, and it gets larger and stronger the more you expand it. Take small, doable steps toward your fluency goals, not giant leaps."

In this episode, Paige delves into the intricacies of behavior change, focusing on the journey from comfort to growth, specifically in the context of working on fluency. 

The discussion introduces the concept of four behavior zones: comfort zone, fear zone, growth zone, and panic zone. Drawing from personal experiences, Paige sheds light on the challenges faced during speech therapy and beyond, emphasizing the importance of understanding these zones to facilitate effective change.

Strategies such as establishing 'just enough' safety, finding the 'sweet spot' for growth, and adopting a slow and steady approach are highlighted for navigating these zones of behaviour successfully. The episode concludes with a reminder that behaviour change is not a linear process and offers support to those working towards their fluency goals.
