Podcast #547   SELF-TALK THAT CHANGED MY LIFE It's time to master the transformative power of self-talk and sharing strategies for shifting your self-talk to change your life. The way we talk to ourselves can have a profound impact on our mindset, emotions, and behavior. Negative self-talk can lead to feelings of anxiety, self-doubt, and even depression, while positive self-talk can boost our confidence, resilience, and overall well-being. We'll explore practical techniques for changing your self-talk, including mindfulness, visualization, and cognitive restructuring. These are the shifts in self-talk that changed my life, and can change yours.

On my 30th birthday I had been 5 years into thought -work, and into reigniting / recommitting my life to the Lord.  I turned 30, then traveled to Bora Bora to marry Brandon.  We had a fairytale wedding. I remember walking on the overwater bungalow walkways and setting plans with Brandon that every big birthday - 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100 - we would do an epic travel adventure. One that was meaningful. And here I am, 10 years later, packing on my birthday for a month in Paris. We leave in just over two weeks. Paris is where I fell in love with life, when I was first there for a month when I was 20. It was where I had my first sip of wine, ever. It was where, years later, Brandon proposed to me. I started intentional thought work at age 25. My world exploded. This shifted me from fixed to growth mindset. 20 Year Old Me Thoughts: I need to figure this out.I hope this works. I gotta get better at …. I need to look impressive.  I can't fail or handle getting beat. I am worried that I might not be good enough.
