Manage episode 487346035 series 3285882
We all feel stuck sometimes—emotionally drained, mentally foggy, or just not ourselves. And often, we think it's the situation. But more often than not, it's the story we're telling ourselves about the situation.
In today’s episode, I want to talk to you heart-to-heart about what it means to choose mind over mood—to pause, to listen to your thoughts, and then decide to shift them.
You’ll hear:
→ Why negativity becomes our default without us even noticing
→ A personal moment where I had to choose between spiraling or reframing
→ The connection between thoughts, emotions, and our nervous system
→ Grounding practices to help you calm down when you’re overwhelmed
→ Why community is a silent pillar in your mental strength
→ How to replace judgment with curiosity—and slowly shift your inner dialogue
This episode isn’t about denying your feelings. It’s about owning them—and learning how to move through them with power, presence, and peace.
Let this be your permission to feel, and then lead yourself forward anyway.
