This episode takes an honest look at the myth of willpower — how we’ve been conditioned to measure our worth through effort — and what it really means to work with your energy instead of against it.
Through the lens of the Will Center — the heart of commitment, promises, and worth — we’ll explore how both defined and undefined Wills experience motivation, procrastination, and integrity differently. I share how the Will’s tribal circuitry reveals our ancestral relationship with power and reciprocity, and how shamanic wisdom reframes willpower as sacred exchange rather than endless proving.
If you’ve ever felt guilty for not being “disciplined enough,” pushed through when your heart wasn’t in it, or confused procrastination for failure, this conversation will help you understand what your energy is really saying. Because true willpower isn’t about force — it’s about alignment, honesty, and keeping promises your spirit actually made.
