Self-Sabotage

<p>This week's episode was recorded on RUOk Day, so we took the opportunity to check in on each&nbsp;other and to have a little chat about how this never ending lockdown is going for us. As you may have noticed our topic for today is self-sabotage. After this theme popped up in a few virtual sessions recently, we decided it was worth a whole episode. We look at lots of good ideas and tips on how you can interrupt this pattern of behaviour, as well as delving into what actually is self-sabotage, what does it look like and why on earth we do it?! We hope you find today's episode to be helpful and empowering.</p><p><br></p><p>In this episode we:</p><p>● Discuss what self-sabotage is and what it can look like;</p><p>● Ask why we do self-sabotage and how often do we engage in it;</p><p>● Emphasise the importance of learning more about yourself;</p><p>● Chat about using The Four Tendencies as a helpful tool;</p><p>● Discuss self-sabotage in the context of decluttering;</p><p>● Highlight the importance of building habits and putting supports in place;</p><p>● Encourage you to set realistic expectations and be gentler with yourself;</p><p>And so so so so much more...</p><p><br></p><p>We hope from this conversation we all learn something and put a smile on your face!</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Things mentioned in this episode and other helpful links:</strong></p><p>● <a href="https://www.mindtools.com/pages/article/newTCS_95.htm" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Mindtools.com</a> definition</p><p>● <a href="https://www.theartofdecluttering.com.au/artwork/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Gretchen Rubin</a> Episode</p><p>● <a href="https://theartofdecluttering.com.au/086-micro-declutter/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Micro Declutter</a> Episode</p><p>● <a href="https://www.theartofdecluttering.com.au/mental-health-care/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Mental Health Care</a> Episode</p><p>● <a href="https://www.theartofdecluttering.com.au/ruok_day/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="
