The Science Behind Why You Stay Stuck - Kristin Rivas | #31`
About this episode
Kristin Rivas discusses how conditioned responses contribute to anxiety and procrastination, and offers insights on overcoming limiting behaviors through neuroplasticity.
What if you're not lazy—but your brain has simply learned the wrong patterns? In this episode, Kristin explains why anxiety, procrastination, and self-sabotage are often conditioned responses rather than character flaws. We explore why traditional self-improvement advice often misses the mark, how neuroplasticity allows us to rewire the brain, and practical techniques to overcome limiting behaviors and create lasting change. If you've ever wondered why knowing what to do isn't enough to actually change, this conversation is for you. Kristin is a certified hypnotherapist, brain health coach, and founder of HypnoWellness. After overcoming PTSD following the tragic loss of her sister, Kristin dedicated her career to understanding how the subconscious mind and nervous system shape our behaviors. For over 16 years, she has helped high performers break free from the hidden patterns keeping them stuck.
