Have you ever noticed that you can understand exactly why you do something, know where the pattern came from, and still find yourself repeating it?
If you've spent years doing the inner work, reading the books, listening to the podcasts, and becoming more self-aware, yet still feel frustrated by recurring patterns in your relationships, habits, mindset, or behavior, this conversation is for you.
In this powerful episode, Tiffany sits down with Dr. Nicole LaPera, better known as The Holistic Psychologist, to explore one of the biggest misconceptions in healing and personal growth: the belief that awareness alone creates transformation.
Together, they dive into inner child healing, reparenting yourself, self-sabotage myths, behavior change, childhood conditioning, and why so many people remain stuck in familiar patterns despite years of self-development work. Dr. LaPera also shares practical insights on how to create lasting change, build new habits, and move from understanding your patterns to actually transforming them.
