    Conscious Change vs. Unconscious Drift

    You’re changing—whether you want to or not. The real question is: Are you directing the change, or just getting dragged along for the ride? In this episode, Justin Wenck, PhD, breaks down the difference between unconscious change (which leads to frustration, limitation, and repetition)… and conscious change (which leads to growth, possibility, and enjoyment). You’ll explore how to identify the changes you actually want, how to stop focusing on what you’re running from, and how to become the active creator of the next version of your life. 🌟 Key Points & Takeaways 🔄 Change is constant—but how you change is up to you.🚫 Why “I don’t want this” keeps you stuck exactly where you are.🎯 The importance of choosing a destination instead of “not here.”✈️ How travel mirrors the personal transformation journey (and why the best outcomes are often surprises).💥 Why unconscious change creates limitation, fear, and stagnation.🧭 How conscious change opens new beliefs, identities, and possibilities.✨ The hidden desires underneath your “problems” ⚙️ Practical tools for conscious change—from Engineer to Love, from LEAP, and from Justin’s upcoming events.✨ Experience the LEAP Practice → JustinWenck.com/LEAP Join the waitlist or check for an upcoming live experience. 📘 Grab Justin’s Book: Engineered to Love: Going Beyond Success to Fulfillment (Perfect for exploring identity, belief shifts, and conscious change.) 💬 Share your biggest insight: Tag or DM @JustinWenckPhD on Instagram, YouTube, or LinkedIn. 🎧 Subscribe on YouTube, Spotify, or Apple Podcasts—your support helps the message reach more people who need it.

    The 3 Ways Wanting Goes Wrong—And How to Get It Right

    Wanting isn’t the problem. In fact, it’s the beginning of everything meaningful in your life. But somewhere along the way, we learned to suppress, shame, or override our desires—until we forget what we even want in the first place. In this episode, I break down three common ways wanting goes wrong, share a few weird/funny stories from my own life (including slapping hams like bongo drums), and guide you back to wanting in a way that feels exciting, intuitive, and safe. In this solo episode, Justin dives into: Why most people don’t actually know what they wantHow your wants may not even be your own (yep, societal programming is sneaky)The difference between wanting and havingAnd how reclaiming the right to want is the start of actually getting what you deeply desireAnd yes—there’s a story involving slapping hams like bongo drums. It makes sense. Trust us. 💡 Key Takeaways: Why most people can’t answer the question: “What do you want?”The 3 Wanting Traps:Not knowing what you wantWanting what others want for youConfusing wanting with havingHow childhood shame and social pressure kill your connection to desireWhy simply wanting doesn’t mean you have to have itHow reclaiming your wants is the first step toward actually enjoying lifePractical ways to rediscover your wantsJustin's fabulous 5-minute energy practice to reconnect with your true wants: LEAPWhat’s one thing you actually want but haven’t dared say out loud?
