Stop Yo-Yoing Your Transition - How To Maintain Commitment and Momentum | Dr. Z
Dr. Z explains why adults yo-yo their transition (starting, stopping, starting, stopping) and why this pattern teaches you not to commit to your authentic self. Yo-yoing looks like: start hormones, feel better, come out to family, then freak out and stop everything completely. Sometimes stopping hormones helps because dysphoria comes back stronger and shows you how important transition is. But continuously yo-yoing is destructive—you're learning how to not stick to something important. Watch to find out why creating a vision board helps you commit to your authentic energy, why you should maintain at least some transition elements even when scared (don't stop cold turkey), and why staying in the game and maintaining momentum matters more than speed—momentum accumulates to results. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ABOUT DR.
