In 9 Minutes

It's a REFLEX

Jennifer Sise Episode 24

Do you remember going to the doctor as a kid? You’d get your reflexes checked with that little hammer, and your leg would kick out automatically, without a single thought. Reflexes are amazing—they protect us without involving our brain. But what happens when we start living too much on autopilot?

In this episode, I’m diving into how certain habits, like excuses, old routines, or even mom guilt, can become like reflexes and hold us back from getting what we want out of our life and work. The good news? We can shift to living with more intention. By the end of this episode, I’ll share a simple 9-minute exercise to help you set new intentions and take steps toward a more purposeful life.
