Have you ever started something you knew was good for you—eating healthier, exercising, setting boundaries, or growing spiritually—only to find yourself slowly drifting back to old habits?

You start strong… motivated… committed.

Then suddenly that inner voice begins negotiating:

“A little won’t hurt.”
“I’ll start again tomorrow.”
“It’s not that big of a deal.”

If that tug-of-war sounds familiar, you’re not alone. In this episode of Positive Solutions 4 Life, Peggy explores the powerful and often misunderstood force of resistance—that internal pushback that shows up when we’re on the edge of growth.

Through a personal story about trying to eliminate sugar and participate in a Lenten fast, Peggy shares how resistance often disguises itself as logic, rationalization, or harmless negotiation.

But what if resistance isn’t just about willpower?

What if it’s revealing something deeper?

In this episode you’ll learn:

✨ What resistance really is and why it shows up
✨ The biological reasons our brains push back against change
✨ The different “inner personalities” that fuel resistance
✨ How resistance can appear in our spiritual life
✨ The hidden cost of continually resisting growth
✨ How awareness can help you move forward

Resistance doesn’t necessarily mean something is wrong.
Sometimes it simply means you’re standing at the doorway of growth.

Reflection Question

Where is resistance showing up in your life right now?

Is there something you’ve been avoiding, postponing, or negotiating with yourself about?

Instead of fighting the resistance, ask yourself:

What might this resistance be trying to reveal?
