It's Not That It Doesn't Work

You know what to do.

You've heard the tools.
You've made the plan.
You understand the strategy.

And then in the moment… you don't use it.

In this episode, we're breaking down what's actually happening when you say:

  • "It's not working."

  • "I understand, but it's not helping."

  • "I just didn't want to."

Because most of the time, it's not that the tool failed.

It's that:

  • You carried frustration from one moment into the next decision.

  • You overstated the problem to justify the payoff.

  • You avoided the interruption because you didn't want to lose the excuse.

This is the gap between knowing and doing.
Between having tools and using them.
Between saying it matters and acting like it does.

The podcast can help you see the pattern.

Defense Foundations is where we train the interruption — in real time, inside the actual moments you normally talk yourself out of it.

If you've ever said, "It just doesn't work for me," this episode is for you.

Enrollment for Defense Foundations is now open. We start March 1st.
