About Unpacked: How To Detach From The Subconscious Beliefs That Are Sabotaging Your Life by Kristen Jacobsen, LCPC
You’re doing all the “right” things—reading self-help books, journaling, listening to podcasts, practicing gratitude—and still feel stuck in the same cycles. Overthinking. People-pleasing. Perfectionism. Burnout. Why?
It’s not a lack of effort. It’s what’s hiding beneath it.
In Unpacked, psychotherapist and TEDx speaker Kristen Jacobsen, LCPC, reveals how subconscious beliefs—shaped in childhood and buried deep—quietly run the show, sabotaging your goals and keeping you locked in patterns of anxiety, shame, and self-doubt. You didn’t choose these beliefs, but you can choose to change them.
With a blend of clinical insight and down-to-earth guidance, Kristen helps you uncover the emotional blueprints that no longer serve you, understand where they came from, and gently release them. Inside, you’ll find practical tools, reflective prompts, and a clear, compassionate framework to stop hustling for worth – and start living from it instead.
If you’re a high-achiever who secretly feels like a mess, this book is your permission to stop performing and start healing.
It’s time to unpack what was never yours to carry.
