Why you self-sabotage (it’s not what you think)
Mar 05, 2026 10:26 am
Hey ,
Ever notice how you can know what to do…
And still not do it?
Maybe you choose to clean out the fridge instead.
Or watch Netflix.
Or if you’re me… draft content you don’t even post. Just for fun.
What if I told you you can talk to that part of you that does that?
In my newest podcast episode, I’m talking with Emma Redfern, a psychotherapist, IFS expert, and one of my clients.
We talk about Internal Family Systems and how understanding your “parts” completely changes how you see things like self-sabotage, procrastination, fear of visibility, and the patterns that keep repeating.
Instead of fighting those behaviors, you get curious about them.
And that shift? It changes everything.
We also talk about what it’s been like for Emma to work with me. How having me in her corner has improved her LinkedIn content and relieved her of the pressure to learn how to "be good at content".
If you’re building a personal brand, this conversation goes deeper than posts and strategy.
It’s about what’s happening underneath the hesitation. And you should definitely give it a listen.
And speaking of procrastinating, quick reminder that LinkedIn Office Hours is happening next Thursday.
If you want expert eyes on your LinkedIn content or help drafting your next post, this is your chance.
I’ll share more details in the coming days.
