Shedding People Like Hairstyles

Most people don’t live 90 years — they live the same year 90 times. That’s not living, that’s surviving. In this episode of The Thought SNOB Podcast, Paula unpacks why people resist change so fiercely, even when staying the same destroys health, confidence, and happiness.

Change is natural. You can see it in old pictures: we grow taller, our looks shift, and our needs evolve. We don’t hesitate to toss out a bad mattress or switch up our hairstyle when it no longer fits who we are. So why do we hang on to toxic people for dear life?

With her signature no-nonsense style — and a sharp metaphor comparing bad relationships to bad hairdos — Paula reframes change as not only necessary, but freeing. If you’ve been clinging to people, habits, or jobs that no longer serve you, this episode will show you that change isn’t the enemy. It’s proof you’re alive.
