Accepting AND Addressing Bad Habits (Yes YOURS!)

We all think we understand our bad habits, but do we truly grasp why we can't seem to kick them? This week's raw, unfiltered conversation delves into the psychology of self-sabotage and the lies we tell ourselves to maintain our status quo.

Amanda confesses her tendency to create impossibly long to-do lists, only to feel crushed when she accomplishes almost nothing. "I plan to do 27 things in a span of two hours, and then I'm real upset and depresso espresso when I don't get them done at all," she admits with painful self-awareness. This leads to a fascinating exploration of how we rationalize our worst tendencies—perhaps the most dangerous habit of all.

Jams brings her characteristic bluntness to the discussion, acknowledging her confrontational nature and tendency to assert dominance in situations. "I come in like I own this shit," she says, demonstrating the self-awareness that makes her simultaneously infuriating and endearing. Meanwhile, Denny reflects on his past habit of blaming others when his faulty memory let him down, showing that growth is possible even for the most entrenched behaviors.

The conversation takes surprising turns, from Brayden's bathroom emergency at a Mexican restaurant to a revealing relationship advice segment where they tackle everything from suspicious workplace affairs to unwanted intimate photos. Their brutal honesty ("No one wants a picture of your wiener") provides both laughs and genuine insight into relationship dynamics.

What makes this episode special isn't just the humor—though there's plenty—but the vulnerability each host brings to the table. They're not speaking as self-improvement gurus who've mastered life; they're fellow travelers on the messy journey of self-improvement, stumbling forward one day at a time.

Ready to confront your own bad habits? Listen now, and maybe commit to breaking just one before our next episode. As Amanda might say, start small—because trying to fix everything at once is just another bad habit waiting to happen.
