Why Insight Alone Won't Set You Free

🎙 Episode 4 — Why Insight Alone Won’t Set You Free

(The Bridge Between Understanding and Doing)

In this powerful episode, we explore one of the most common frustrations on the healing path:

“I know why I do this… so why haven’t I changed?”

If you’ve ever felt stuck—even after having big insights about your past—this conversation is for you.

We’ll unpack:

Why your nervous system doesn’t respond to logic

The difference between knowing and doing

Why motivation is unreliable—and how action creates momentum

How neuroplasticity proves change is possible at any age

What it means to lay new track while the train is moving

Why compassion is the bridge between insight and transformation

A science-backed approach called Behavioral Activation

And how this episode sets us up to talk about bypassing next time

You’ll also hear references to:

Atomic Habits by James Clear: “Every action is a vote for the person you want to become.”

The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk

Whether you’re stuck in perfectionism, procrastination, or just feel like you’re “not doing enough,” this episode is your invitation to begin imperfectly—and trust that small, safe action is the way home.
