236. If I Wanted To Stay Stuck & Hate My Life In 2026, Here's Exactly What I'd Do

Want to make 2026 your worst year ever? Cool. I’ve got a six-step blueprint for staying stuck and hating your life.

Inspired by a Leila Hormozi episode on “how to have your worst year,” I riffed on the idea and realized… I’ve been accidentally doing a bunch of these over the last 6–8 weeks. So in today’s solo episode, I’m laying out six sneaky, high-performer patterns that quietly drain your energy, dilute your momentum, and keep you spinning in the same loops (even when you’re successful everywhere else).

We’re talking about:

• collecting strategies like Pokémon cards while ignoring the energetic root
• forcing yourself into other people’s “5-step plans”
• being wildly promiscuous with your attention (yes I said it 😅)
• using external validation as emotional blood sugar
• treating yourself like a fragile flower instead of building resilience through action
• and the big one: confusing growth discomfort with misalignment suffering

This episode is equal parts playful roast and loving reality check, especially for high-performing creatives and growth-oriented women who are ready to stop outsourcing their power and start building momentum that actually fits their nervous system.

And if you recognize yourself in 4 or more of these patterns, you might want to join us for the next round of Food Freedom Fantasy: deep health + consistency that feels like foreplay, without dieting or giving your power away to someone else’s formula.

Next week: the antidote episode (fiery + tactical) to help you do the rest of 2026 radically differently.
