The Real Reason Habits Fail
Why Consistency Has Nothing to Do With Motivation

Habits don’t fail because you’re lazy. Learn why self-criticism breaks consistency — and how to make habits lighter and more sustainable.

In this episode, Kara explains why habits don’t fail due to lack of discipline or motivation. You’ll learn how self-criticism, pressure, and unrealistic expectations make habits feel heavy — and how consistency comes from ease, not effort.
