In this episode of Your Yes Filled Life, Kris Driskill—transformational coach, business consultant, and former opera singer—joins Brenda to explore the subtle (and not-so-subtle) ways self-sabotage shows up, especially for high-achieving, intuitive women. Kris unpacks the ten saboteur archetypes from the Positive Intelligence framework and helps us understand how our need for approval, perfectionism, or control can quietly undermine our joy and success.

Together, Brenda and Kris reflect on their own performance-driven pasts, and share what it looks like to move from hyper-achievement to authentic alignment. This episode is packed with real talk, healing insights, and practical shifts that will support you in honoring your energy and reclaiming your intuitive power.
