Ever caught yourself saying "I should" before tackling a task, only to feel immediate resistance? That simple word reveals volumes about our emotional landscape and often keeps us trapped in patterns of guilt and judgment.

Our language gives profound clues about what's happening beneath the surface, with "should" being one of the clearest signals that we're operating from obligation rather than choice.

These patterns typically originate in childhood when our lives were structured by external authorities telling us what to do, when to do it, and how to behave in various situations.

The path to freedom begins with awareness. By noticing when we use "should" language, we can investigate whose voice is really speaking. Is it truly our own, or are we hearing echoes of parents, teachers, or social expectations from years ago?

Ready to stop "shoulding" all over yourself? Listen now and discover practical strategies to transform obligation into choice, discomfort into growth, and limitation into freedom.
