This collection of prompts offers a yearlong journey of self-reflection through daily journaling designed to help you identify and break free from self-sabotaging patterns that hold you back from thriving.
What is the "Traitor Within"?
The "Traitor Within" is the misguided part of yourself—often shaped by childhood trauma, toxic messaging, or dysfunctional role models—that repeatedly leads you down self-destructive paths.

With space to reflect, you'll begin to unravel the harmful inner monologue of the “Traitor Within” and replace it with a healthier, more empowering voice.
