Welcome to the first full episode of You Can’t Make This Shift Up! In this deep dive, we’re talking about beliefs—what they are, how they’re formed, and why they secretly run your entire life (even the parts you don’t love). We’ll break down why mindset is more than just positive thinking, how the subconscious files everything under “fact” whether it’s true or not, and what it really takes to rewrite the stories that keep you stuck.

This episode is for you if:

• You’re tired of repeating the same emotional patterns and have no idea why
• You’ve done some healing work but still get tripped up by the same inner voice
• You want a smart, no-BS explanation of how beliefs shape your reality—and how to shift them

• How beliefs are actually formed (and why your 7-year-old self may be running the show)
• The subconscious as a filing system and why it doesn’t update on its own
• The difference between protective and limiting beliefs
• Why change often feels like grief
• Tools like reframing, self-suggestion, and EMDR for rewriting belief patterns
• Why joy can feel scary and why your nervous system might reject the very things you say you want
