In Episode 10 of The Real Scoop, we explore how you can begin to see setbacks not the end of the road, but an opportunity for redirection.
This episode is for you if you’ve ever asked yourself-
Whether this is because you have had a relationship end, missed out on a job/ promotion at work, or felt you worked really hard towards an opportunity and it didn't fully pay off, and your first thought is "Why have I failed?!"
I share my own journey of feeling disconnected from my future and how self-sabotage, nervous system dysregulation, and lack of self-trust can lead to impulsive choices. You’ll also learn how to shift your perspective so you can move through life’s challenges with more grace and clarity.
Key parts throughout the episode-
1:00 – How to reframe setbacks as redirection
1:30 – What an “expectation hangover” is and how to know if you’re experiencing one

5:00 – What’s really in (and out of) your control, and how to shift your focus
5:30 – How to sit with uncomfortable emotions instead of avoiding them
6:50 – Navigating impulsive decisions and what drives them
