About this episode

When you know what to do, but just aren't doing it, how do you get unstuck? Listen in for Georgie's advice on turning what you *want to do* into what you are *actually doing*. 

In this episode you'll hear about some of the psychological factors that explain why we resist doing things we know would help us closer to our goals. And, you'll learn some specific strategies to get out of your own way. You aren't broken, resistance is a natural part of the recovery process. And it's one we can beat.
