What if pain isn't the enemy, but the path forward? In this episode, we explore The Tools: Reversal of Desire and how it can help you break through avoidance and move toward freedom. In our first episode of Question Yourself, Diane Leja and Bethany Meloche introduce themselves and the journey that led them to self-inquiry. Then they dive into a powerful practice from Phil Stutz's The Tools — the Reversal of Desire.
This simple yet radical exercise flips our instinct to avoid discomfort. Instead of running from pain, it shows us how to move through it and come out the other side with energy, clarity, and freedom.
You'll hear how Bethany applied the tool despite living with aphantasia (the inability to visualize), how Diane used it to break through her resistance to doing taxes, and the surprising insights they uncovered about pain, avoidance, and resilience.
Whether you're facing procrastination, self-doubt, or resistance to something important, this episode offers a practical way to confront what hurts and discover the possibility waiting beyond it.
