What Actually Stops People From Changing? (Jeff Wetherhold)

🎙 Why is change so hard, even when we want it? In this episode of We Live to Build, I sit down with Jeff Wetherhold, Founder and Principal of MI for Health, to unpack the psychology of change and the communication patterns that either support or sabotage it.

We dive deep into the relational and emotional side of change—why motivation isn’t enough, how self-awareness shapes outcomes, and what makes conversations truly effective when it comes to helping people grow.

* Why people resist change even when they say yes

* The hidden role of assumptions in failed communication

* How reflections can be more powerful than questions

* What leaders get wrong about change management

* How to handle discomfort and move through it
