Some things you feel aren’t real — but your nervous system hasn’t gotten the memo.

Old stories from the past can wire themselves so deep into your body that even after you’ve changed, they still feel true.

In this Gritty Wednesday episode, Jason Lyle unpacks why those beliefs stick, and how to break them loose. He shares how facing discomfort — through tools like cold water — can retrain your nervous system to stop looping on the old story and start living in truth.

🎧 Listen now and learn how to build the grit it takes to break the loop.
