In this episode, Marsha breaks down one of the most powerful metaphors she's ever heard about the subconscious mind. If you've ever felt like you're doing everything right — checking the boxes, setting goals, mapping the plan — yet still not seeing the results you want, this one is going to hit home.

Using the imagery of a state of the art GPS (your conscious mind) sitting on top of an outdated paper road map (your subconscious mind), Marsha explains why your inner operating systems must match if you want real, lasting change. She walks you through why we get stuck, why the subconscious pulls us back to the familiar even when it no longer serves us, and how upgrading your inner identity creates the safety you need to move forward.

This is a must listen for anyone who feels the internal tug of war between where they want to go and what their old patterns are trying to keep them safe from.
