About this episode

In this episode, Rebecca Haydon discusses how waiting for proof can keep you stuck and explores the subconscious patterns behind this behavior.

You've been waiting for the proof... the consistent months, the sold out programme, the income that finally feels like enough, the moment you can see exactly how it's going to work before you fully back yourself.

In this episode, I break down exactly what is happening in your subconscious when you wait for proof and wait for the how and why both of them are the same pattern keeping you exactly where you are.
