About this listen

If You're a FAN leave me a message :-)

Known pain feels safer than unknown growth, and that belief keeps more people stuck than fear ever does. In this 15 Minute Mondays episode, I expose why the mind clings to familiar discomfort, how predictability overrides logic, and why endurance often masquerades as strength. You’ll learn how to identify the pain you’re tolerating, uncover the hidden payoffs keeping you there, and step into growth-driven discomfort without self-sabotage or burnout.

Key Takeaways

  • Why familiar pain feels safer than unfamiliar improvement.
  • How the nervous system confuses predictability with safety.
  • The 5-step framework to break attachment to what hurts.
  • How to distinguish discomfort from real danger.
  • Why growth pain expires - but stagnation pain compounds.
