Why Change is So Hard

Something I think we all *know* but don't spend much time understanding is that: change is hard. On this week's episode of ​The Transforming Anxiety Podcast​, I wanted to explore it with you on a deeper level. ​WHY is change so hard?​

There are a couple different kinds of change that happens in our lives. One way change occurs is that something big and major happens, and it affects everything. New job, new city, new baby, new relationship...the loss of a loved one, retirement, an empty nest, the end of a relationship. These kinds of changes strike quickly and affect everything and it's up to us to deal with the aftershocks as we adjust to the new normal.

But there are other, slower, choice-based changes in our lives, too. Habits, routines, ways of speaking, feelings, belief systems, how we show up in the world. These things take constant choices, daily decisions, and real commitment...so that we can ultimately cross over a line and feel fundamentally transformed as a result.

The latter is what I want to focus on today.

Join me for this conversation re: change. And bringing some awareness and a 4-step process to make change a bit easier (if not outright pleasant). 😉

​See you there​...
