Episode 183
Sunday, 11 January, 2026

Christina examines perfection culture and how systems, conditioned responses, and inherited beliefs teach us to self-abandon in order to feel accepted, worthy, or safe.She explores how these patterns shape our emotional responses, fuel people-pleasing, and keep us chasing approval at the expense of our authenticity. The conversation highlights the role of ego, self-reflection, and the courage it takes to question beliefs you didn’t consciously choose.In part 1 of this 2 part series, Christina invites listeners to challenge long-held assumptions, reconnect with their inner truth, and explore authenticity not as an image… but as a path back to self-trust and personal freedom.Topics Discussed:The illusion of perfection and why it disconnects us from ourselvesHow meaning gets attached to flaws, mistakes, and identityPeople-pleasing as a response to rejection and emotional safetyHow our emotional reactions are shaped by internalized beliefsWhy guilt and shame show up when we challenge old beliefsThe freedom that comes from questioning assumptionsAuthenticity as a path to personal freedomThis is part one of a two-part series. Part Two: “Exposing the Patterns That Keep Us Stuck” will release next week — where we go even deeper into identifying and breaking the loops that keep you trapped in perfection, self-judgment, and emotional reactivity.Key Links:📱 Christina's Instagram 💪 Cut & Conquer Instagram📝 Coaching Application🌍 Free FB Community🌶️ Shop Healthy Devil Seasoning Hosted on Acast.
