Episode 217: Expand Your Capacity to Feel Good, Stop Self-Sabotaging, and Create the Healthiest Relationship Ever with Gay and Katie Hendricks

Why do we hit invisible ceilings in our happiness, love, and success?

This is the "upper limit problem," and it's sneakier than you might think… often leading us to self-sabotage, just when things are starting to look up.

Today’s guests, Gay and Katie Hendricks, are literally Karolina’s idols. Experts on all things personal growth and relationships, they have trained thousands of coaches, authored more than 40 books, and have even appeared on Oprah.

It’s time to peel back the layers of upper limits and smash our own glass ceilings. When we fear we’re shining too bright, we’re dimming our zone of genius. This problem can also seep into our relationships – impacting our personal growth AND our happiness.

Karolina has experienced the upper limit problem personally and with her clients. Hear how she had one of the worst weeks ever following the excitement of her 6-figure book deal. Why is this phenomenon even happening to us?

Don’t miss the key insights from Gay and Katie on “conscious loving” to build healthy, dynamic relationships, and how to unlearn the unconscious patterns we repeatedly fall into.
