When Self-Help Doesn't Help: Why Self-Help Isn't Helping and What to Do Instead

Everyone wants to be their best selves, right?  But what happens when your self-help resources… aren’t helping? Our default reaction might be to assume that WE are the problem, but that’s not necessarily true. Sometimes, self-help isn’t helpful, and not everything is right for YOU. Self-help resources are great, but only when you use them in a way that supports how you operate. In this episode, I’m going to talk about some of the reasons it might feel like self-help is doing you no good, and what you can do about it going forward (instead of being hard on yourself).   Shownotes for Episode 167 Cick here to become a member of the It's About Time Academy!
