If you’ve ever thought, “I know better, so why do I keep doing this?” — this episode is your wake-up call.
In this raw and radically honest conversation, personal development disruptor Bizzie Gold breaks down why self-awareness isn’t enough to stop self-sabotage — and how your brain’s protective lies may be the exact reason you feel stuck, burned out, or just cycling through unhelpful patterns.
We chat:
- Why your brain lies to you — and how to break self-sabotaging patterns for good
- The 5 brain pattern types (and how to figure out yours)
- Why talk therapy can keep you stuck analyzing the past instead of healing — and what *actually* rewires behavior
- Your optimistic “I’ll figure it out” energy might just be cortisol in a cute outfit
- Bizzie’s hot take: Is being delulu actually the solulu?
- Why mindset isn’t magic — and how changing your language + perception changes your life
- Why your triggers are the blueprint to your next level (if you stop avoiding them)
- How social media is becoming a pyramid scheme — and contributing to a mental health crisis
- Instinct vs. Intuition: The neuroscience difference most people miss
- The distorted definition of “authenticity” — and why healing isn’t about accepting the worst parts of ourselves
This one’s not about surface-level self-help. It’s about real, sustainable transformation. No sugarcoating. No shortcuts.
