You were taught to ignore your impulses — to speak, move, or explore — and replace them with obedience. This shut down your ability to follow your intuition.

Being pushed to do what you didn’t want trained you to ignore your inner “no” and normalized defeat. It disconnected you from your willpower and agency.

You were taught to do work out of fear — of failure, disapproval, or consequences — rather than from desire. This made fear your default driver of effort.

You were conditioned to believe that happiness comes after effort, not during. This normalized pushing through misery now in exchange for a future reward.

You learned that joy should be minimal and scheduled — while most of life should be spent doing what you don’t enjoy.

You were told to defer to authority instead of trusting your own judgment. This weakened your confidence in your inner knowing.

You were trained to believe that your value (how much love you get) depends on how well you perform. This created a life of pressure, anxiety, and fear around being evaluated for performance.

You were conditioned to chase external achievement above all else, even if it meant sacrificing your peace, connections, authenticity, or wellbeing.

You learned to measure your self-worth by how your classmates saw you. To avoid rejection and gain approval, you adapted your behavior, personality, or opinions — often at the expense of your authenticity.

Your parents and teachers valued your output more than your emotional state. This sets us up for a lifetime of valuing work we don't enjoy over doing what actually makes us happy.

You were taught to suppress how you feel in order to meet deadlines or fulfill expectations. This made it normal treat emotions as unimportant, and prioritize progress over wellbeing.

You were taught to tone yourself down to be “appropriate.” This shut down your playfulness, aliveness, and full expression so deep that it can become almost impossible to access.

Your performance, and the rewards you received, were determined relative to your peers. This trains you to view others as rivals instead of teammates. This creates isolation and blocks receiving/giving support.

You were punished for breaking rules and treated like you were bad. Over time, this taught you to associate mistakes with shame, and to believe you don’t fully deserve love, joy, or connection.

Each video in this course is filled with guided exercises and explanations that are meant to provide you with an instant experiential impact. No need to guess or hope that it may help one day in the future if you practice it enough.

All of the videos in this course are meant to address the roots of why you're not living your authentically joyous life. Whether you experience 20% or 80% more happiness from this course, the impact is meant to be permanent. No maintenance required. 

I created this course to be easily digestible. That's why the average video is about 20 minutes, and you only receive 2 videos per week. You can get the full benefit of this course because it's not overwhelming.
