218. The Tool Is Working (Just Not the Way You Expected)

Episode Description from the Publisher

Have you ever used a tool that helped, but still wondered why the desire, discomfort, or old thought didn't go away? Maybe you practiced the new thought, paused before reacting, or made a plan, but the hard part was still there. How do you know if the tool is actually working?   In this episode, I talk about why we often misunderstand what tools are designed to do. We expect them to eliminate the struggle completely, but effective tools don't always make the uncomfortable thoughts, feelings, or desires disappear.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://carriehollandmd.com/218       Follow me on Facebook and Instagram: https://www.facebook.com/carriehollandmd https://www.instagram.com/carriehollandmd/
