We have to stop giving ourselves a pass with vague, soft language.

"Emotional eating." "Self-sabotage." "Checked out." "Comfort food."

These phrases sound like awareness — but most of the time, they're actually avoidance. They're smokescreens that help us label the pattern without actually examining it. But if we want to get out of the cycle, we've got to stop naming things in a way that lets us off the hook.

In today's episode, we're getting real. I'll walk you through:

Why vague labels keep us stuck
How to replace them with specific, honest observations
The role clarity plays in breaking patterns
And how this one shift alone can change everything — without needing more willpower or motivation

If you've ever said, "I just keep sabotaging myself," this one's for you.
