Episode 03: The Wisdom of Resistance - What Your Fear Might Be Trying To Tell You

 

We often label resistance as self-sabotage — but what if it’s actually a wise inner signal, rooted in fear that’s trying to protect us? In this episode of Magic in the Muck, we explore resistance not as the enemy, but as a sacred messenger. You'll learn how to listen beneath the surface of your stuckness, discover what your fear is really asking for, and begin to shift from judgment into compassionate curiosity. This one’s for anyone who feels held back — and is ready to hear the deeper message their soul might be whispering through the muck.

What You’ll Hear:

  • Why resistance isn’t self-sabotage — it’s a form of protection rooted in fear.

  • How resistance often signals that something inside needs safety before it can shift.

  • The difference between resistance as avoidance vs. resistance as wisdom.

  • A reframe that invites compassion rather than judgment when you feel stuck.

  • How listening deeply to your resistance can reveal the next soul-aligned step.

  • A simple practice to befriend the fear beneath your resistance and move forward gently.

Reflection for this Week:

“Often when we meet resistance with presence instead of pressure, it starts to shift.”

Practice for this week:

Notice 1 area of your life where you might be feeling stuck or resistant, instead of trying to push through, pause and take time to ask:

What does this part need from me to feel safe? Journal, reflect, practice sending love and compassion to this part, and just notice what begins to shift within you.
