The Hidden TRUTH About Monk Mode And The Self Improvement Lie | EP278 | Isaac Velez Show

The Isaac Velez Show

Welcome to The Isaac Velez Show! In today’s episode, I will be discussing the concept of monk mode and the self-improvement lie. Monk mode is a period of isolation where you remove bad habits and develop new good habits. While it can be a useful tool for personal growth, it is also part of the self-improvement lie that suggests as long as you keep improving, you don't have to deal with past problems or figure out your life's direction.
