You'll discover that it's not about willpower or discipline, but rather a thought process of guilt and shame that can drive us to certain behaviors. Gain insights on what to watch for when exposed to different accounts, social media, and ads that can lead to negative beliefs and internalize our own well-being.Finally, learn what happens when we start to engage in behaviors and beliefs that make us feel empowered, and how our thoughts, beliefs, and emotions can become intertwined and impact our behavior in powerful ways.

If you struggle with chronically putting waaaay too much pressure on yourself, which creates a cycle of negative self-talk for not "doing enough", not going "fast enough" or not being where you want to be, this episode is for you. In this solo episode, I'm letting you in on a personal challenge that I've been working through myself for the last few years. As someone who used to refer to myself as a "recovered perfectionist", I can be honest and admit that I am still a work in progress. We live in a society that's driven by achievement, productivity, constantly being "on the go" and never allowing time to just "be". This creates anxiety, an extreme sense of urgency, scarcity and pressure. This is NOT the recipe for a peaceful life. So, today, I'm going to walk you through a proven process for reducing that sense of pressure, reframing negative self-talk and creating more positive, empowering thoughts so that you can create more peace in your life. You'll want to grab a pen and paper to take some notes,  because this will be an extremely powerful tool for you to use in ALL areas of your life.
