In this engaging episode of Encouragementology, Kendell Boysen, a seasoned life and recovery coach, shines a light on the ways habits, hangups, and denial can quietly take control of our lives. Kendell explores how seemingly harmless routines can morph into full-blown addictions without us even noticing. From late-night scrolling to saying 'yes' when you mean 'no', these patterns can nestle into our daily lives and steer us off course.
Kendell encourages self-reflection by asking thought-provoking questions like, 'What do you turn to when you're overwhelmed?' and 'How is this behaviour affecting those around you?' It's a gentle invitation to hold up a mirror and see what's really driving our actions. With a blend of compassion and curiosity, Kendell breaks down the difference between habits and addictions, highlighting how denial can keep us stuck in harmful cycles.
The episode offers practical strategies to reclaim your power, including naming the behaviour without shame and tracking emotional triggers. Kendell shares insights on the five stages of grief and how they apply to letting go of toxic patterns, reminding us that surrender isn't defeat but the start of healing. If you're ready to face your habits head-on and make conscious choices for change, this episode is a must-listen.
It’s packed with actionable advice and encouragement to help you break free from what's been holding you back. So grab a cuppa, get comfy, and dive into this enlightening conversation.
