Poisoning The Will
About this episode
Phoenix Ash discusses the various forms of self-sabotage and how fear and self-doubt can hinder personal growth and creativity.
Ever crushed your own dream before it had a chance? Or shut someone else down thinking you were being helpful? This episode hits all those moments we rarely admit but deeply feel. Phoenix Ash returns, fresh from a sinus battle and ready to get honest about sabotage. Not just the kind people throw at you, but the kind that sounds like perfectionism or “being realistic.” She unpacks how fear disguises itself as logic, how self-doubt poisons motivation, and how even love can come out as limitation. There’s talk of indie publishing hustle, writing through chaos, the dangers of rushing your art, hormonal rollercoasters, and why marriage might just be a shortcut to legal security. It’s honest, revealing, and filled with the kind of reflection that makes you pause and rethink your own patterns. Ready to stop poisoning your will?
