About this episode

Books by Brianna ➝ https://shopc.at/uprooting

One of the most common (and damaging) self-sabotaging behaviors, uprooting is what happens when we can't stay the course with anything. It's a pattern of moving, changing jobs, shifting friends, relationships, having big ideas, but minimal follow-through. In this episode, we discuss what "uprooting" is, how to identify it, and ultimately, how to know whether it's time to stay or time to go.
