What if the resistance you’re facing isn’t failure — but the “crabs in the bucket” trying to pull you back down?

In this episode of The Human User Manual Podcast, Robert Ellis exposes one of the most subtle yet destructive forces blocking personal growth: the Crabs in a Bucket Mentality.

Through powerful real-life stories and deep insights, you’ll learn how to recognize when others — even friends or family — are unconsciously (or deliberately) sabotaging your progress, and how to rise above it with calm, emotional sovereignty.

You’ll discover: Why people react negatively when you start improving your life How to stay emotionally centered when faced with criticism, jealousy, or guilt The key to protecting your peace and continuing your growth, no matter who tries to hold you back By the end of this episode, you’ll understand that your evolution doesn’t need permission — and that your success can become the light that helps others rise too.

🧠 This isn’t just self-improvement — it’s self-liberation.

🎧 Stay until the end for a powerful message on how to protect your energy, focus on what uplifts, and become untouchable.
