Ever feel like you’re the one person for whom nothing works?

You try the program. You try the coach. You try the healing. You try the New Year’s resolution. And somehow… You end up right back in the same old movie. Same feelings. Same patterns. Same “what’s wrong with me?”
Here’s the truth: you’re not broken — you’re just running a bad program.
And your brain is excellent at running it.
In this episode, Crystal and I go straight into the real reason people “fail” over and over: your mind is pulling from old memory files—rules you learned in your family system, survival patterns you rehearsed for years, and emotional links that keep you “safe,” even when it costs you your happiness.
We talk about:
Why being “the black sheep” is often a trained role (and how to change it)
Why “spiritual explanations” can become a fancy way to cope instead of change
How trauma bonding works (why you keep going back for the “feel-goods”)
Why most manifestation methods turn into a temporary fantasy if your old pain still has more power
How real change happens: update the memories and the references… and your life changes
Crystal even says it straight: she spent years doing “energy work,” felt good for a moment… and then went right back into the same deflated reality. That’s not because she’s weak. That’s because feeling good for a moment isn’t the same as changing the root.
If you’re tired of coping… and you’re ready to actually change the program, book a session with me.
We don’t just talk about the past — we change what your brain is doing with it. When those internal files update, your reactions change. Your choices change. Your life follows.
