Episode #33: Fear of Falling into Old Patterns - And What to Do About It
About the Episode:
Ever find yourself afraid of “slipping back” into old habits, even after making real progress? You’re not alone.
In this episode, Dr. Vanessa unpacks the neuroscience and psychology behind the fear of regression - and why it’s not failure, but a natural part of growth.
You’ll learn:
- Why you fall back into old patterns even after you've made real progress
- How your brain clings to the familiar (and how to work with it)
- The difference between consistency and commitment
- Practical tools to move forward with compassion and agency
✨ A grounded, science-backed reminder that growth isn’t about never falling, it’s about learning to begin again with grace.
