In this episode, we dive deep into the powerful and often misunderstood concept of internal resistance — that invisible force that keeps us from taking action on the things we truly want. Joining me is Kam Knight, a distinguished mentor, international speaker, and bestselling author known for his groundbreaking work on mental, emotional, and physical performance.
Kam unpacks the psychological roots of resistance, explaining how our own brains can work against us — manifesting as procrastination, self-sabotage, fear, or overwhelm. He breaks down the science behind why we get stuck and offers practical, research-based strategies to help listeners move from paralysis into purpose-driven action.
Together, we explore how trauma and emotional conditioning can amplify resistance, especially for those with challenging pasts, and how understanding these mechanisms allows for deep transformation. Kam introduces actionable tools like micro-commitments — small, manageable steps that help bypass overwhelm, build momentum, and retrain the brain to associate progress with safety and satisfaction.
Kam reminds us that "wanting does not equate to having." True growth and fulfillment come when we courageously face our inner resistance and act in spite of it. His wisdom provides a roadmap for anyone ready to transcend self-sabotage and step boldly into aligned action.
💡 Key Takeaways
- Internal resistance is a psychological barrier that prevents action toward our goals.
- Different areas of the brain create desire and resistance, leading to inner conflict.
- Recognizing and naming self-sabotaging patterns is the first step toward change.
- Procrastination cues like “later” or “next time” are red flags for resistance at work.
- Micro-commitments help reduce overwhelm and build momentum through small wins.
- Unresolved trauma and unmet emotional needs often underpin chronic resistance.
- True transformation begins when we choose to act — even when resistance whispers "not yet."
