In this episode, psychotherapist Sarah Dosanjh and coach/somatic practitioner Stefanie Michele unpack the messy truth about personal growth.
Can we actually change who we are, or are we just managing symptoms with nicer language?
They get real about procrastination, personality quirks, self-perception, and the parts of us that therapy just won’t touch.
Through personal stories and client insights, they explore the line between acceptance and accountability — and why some things evolve, while others might be here to stay.
It’s not a self-help pep talk.
It’s a nuanced look at what we can shift… and what we might need to stop fighting.
