Join us for episode 10 of Cats Chats and Coffee, where we explore the topic of self-sabotage and how it affects our lives. Starting with a light-hearted chat about our weekend shenanigans, we delve into the concept of self-defeating behavior patterns that often stem from past traumas or coping mechanisms.
Drawing from Brianna Wiest's book "The Mountain Is You," we discuss hitting the upper limits of happiness and how limiting beliefs, fears, and biases from others can hold us back from achieving our best selves.
We also provide insights on how to heal and take responsibility for our behaviors and beliefs that are impeding our progress. Tune in to learn about our recommended books that can help you overcome self-sabotage and embrace the life you are meant to live.
We hope you tune into this week's conversation with Alex and Liv. Episode 10 is now live on all podcasting platforms! Enjoy!
