Breaking the Myth of Self-Sabotage with Paul Wilson

In this eye-opening episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Paul Wilson, a coach and mental health advocate specializing in helping high-net-worth entrepreneurs break free from procrastination, overwhelm, and perfectionism. Paul challenges the idea of self-sabotage, explaining why it's a myth and how our minds are actually working for us—not against us.

We discuss how fear, judgment, and past experiences shape our actions, why decision-making is the key to overcoming procrastination, and why retirement, as we know it, is broken. Paul also shares actionable strategies to move past overthinking, start taking bold steps, and truly get out of your own way.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in your head, this episode is a game-changer!
