105: What’s REALLY stopping you from going after what you say you want! with Gina Casbarro

May 27, 2025

Why is it so hard to go after the things we deeply want?

Whether it’s breaking the habit of people-pleasing, pursuing more fulfilling work, or taking that leap you’ve been dreaming about for years—there’s a reason you haven’t done it yet.

In this episode, I’m breaking down seven powerful reasons we hold ourselves back... and how to move through them with clarity, compassion, and courage.

You’ll hear personal stories from my own journey—including what came up for me during a 100-mile bike race—and the mindset shifts that helped me reframe “failure,” honor rest, and stay rooted in my why.

If you’ve ever put a dream on hold or told yourself “I’m not ready yet,” this episode will show you what’s really going on beneath the surface—and how to take your next brave step forward. ⚡️

IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL HEAR:

Why your brain resists big dreams—and how to stop letting old stories run the show.
What most people are really avoiding when they stay stuck (hint: it’s not failure).
How to transform setbacks into fuel instead of proof you’re not good enough.
The surprising truth about effort, progress, and what it actually takes to grow.
Why attaching your worth to outcomes kills your momentum—and what to do instead.
The underrated superpower of rest (and how it makes you stronger, not lazy).
How to stop waiting until you “feel ready” and start moving toward the life you want—now.
