Two people can live through the same experience—a breakup, a job loss, or a childhood wound—and walk away with entirely different realities because of the story they tell about it. In this episode of the Building Resilience Podcast, Leah Davidson explores how your inner narrative shapes both your mindset and your nervous system, and how stories can become survival codes that keep you stuck. She shares three powerful ways to shift your story through your lens, your language, and your nervous system state, offering simple, compassionate tools to help you rewrite your narrative from a place of safety, growth, and self-compassion.
We’ll explore:
- How shifting your lens changes the meaning of your story
- The power of words and how to choose ones that free you
- Why “story follows state” and the role of regulation
- Simple tools to calm your body before rewriting your story
- Changing your story expands safety and possibility, not denial
