Why You’re Resisting Your Work (And What to Do About It)

Why You’re Resisting Your Work (And What to Do About It) Kelle Sparta opens Spirit Sherpa by sharing her own struggle with resistance and low energy while trying to record the episode, explaining that resistance can come from discomfort, dread, feeling incompetent, or an “inner child” needing rest, and that sometimes what looks like resistance is actually necessary emotional processing. She emphasizes honoring emotions and the body, using movement to shift mindset, taking breaks, and avoiding constant pushing because burnout affects client engagement.
