214. It's Never About the Pastry: Why You Keep Doing Things You Know Aren't Helping

Episode Description from the Publisher

Have you ever wondered why you keep doing the things you know aren't helping you? Sometimes the hardest habits to change are the ones we understand really well but keep repeating anyway. We know what we want to do differently, we know the habits that would move us closer to our goals, and yet… we still find ourselves doing the same things over and over.   In this episode, I share a coaching story about a client who ate a banana pastry at work even though she doesn't even like bananas. But the truth is, the pastry wasn't really the problem. It was just a clue that there was something deeper going on underneath.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://carriehollandmd.com/214       Follow me on Facebook and Instagram: https://www.facebook.com/carriehollandmd https://www.instagram.com/carriehollandmd/
