Ep. #242: Success Pain and How it is Making Weight Loss Impossible

In this episode, we delve into the concept of “Success Pain” and its impact on losing weight.

Success Pain refers to the subconscious tendency to create failure out of a need for familiarity and comfort.

When it comes to weight loss, this manifests itself as self-sabotage, where individuals revert to unhealthy habits despite their progress.

This psychological barrier makes lasting change difficult, as the comfort of known pain outweighs the uncertainty of new success.

Join Coach Jenn and I as we explore strategies to overcome Success Pain and pave the way for sustainable weight loss and personal growth.
