Have you ever felt like you're working really hard… but nothing is actually moving forward?
Like you're busy, exhausted, doing all the things — yet somehow every day feels the same.
In this episode, Christina shares a moment from her own journey when everything suddenly felt like Groundhog Day. The effort was there, but the clarity and momentum felt stuck.
Instead of pushing harder, she began asking a different question:
What if nothing is wrong… and something deeper is actually shifting?
This episode explores what many people call ego death — or what Christina calls cocoon season — the space between who you used to be and who you're becoming.
Christina shares how identity shifts affect the nervous system, why overworking and perfectionism often resurface during growth, and how building capacity and choice helps you move forward.
If you've ever questioned your path, your purpose, or whether you're doing enough… this conversation is for you.
• Why growth can feel like Groundhog Day
• What "ego death" actually means
• Why Christina calls it cocoon season
• How identity shifts affect the nervous system
• Why overworking often returns during expansion
• The role of capacity and choice in real change
Christina created The Breath of Renewal Circle as a space to reconnect with your body, regulate your nervous system, and expand your capacity safely.
