Are you someone who constantly procrastinates on the things that would actually make your life better? Do you find yourself avoiding the very opportunities you've been dreaming about? Have you been a people pleaser your whole life even when it hurts you? Do you look around and feel like everyone else is moving forward while you're standing still — and you have no idea why?

But here's what I also need you to hear: 9 in 10 adults engage in self sabotaging behavior. This doesn't mean you're broken, lazy, or unworthy of the life you want.
