What if the phrase “I don’t wanna” is quietly sabotaging your yoga practice, your dreams, your relationships — and your growth?In this episode of Follow the Yogi’s Path, Vikky peels back the layers of a deceptively simple phrase we all say — and explores how it sneaks into our adult lives, stopping us from evolving, connecting, or stepping into who we’re meant to become.We talk about:How resistance hides in our everyday languageWhy grown-up freedom sometimes requires grown-up disciplineHow yoga asks more of us than just stretching and vibesThe difference between honoring your needs and babying your fearAnd of course, you’ll get 3 practical, loving, no-fluff ways to shift from stuck to strong — without forcing yourself into burnout or guilt.Whether you’ve been putting off meditation, conversation, or transformation — this one’s for you.Let’s stop waiting for motivation. Let’s move through the “I don’t wanna.”Your path is still right here, waiting for you.Support the showHey there beautiful souls, it's Vikky Santana here.
