The Lasting Legacy of Self Talk with Dr. Shad Helmstetter
Manage episode 482719019 series 3405010
In this episode, I had the absolute pleasure of talking with Dr. Shad Helmstetter about the powerful role self-talk plays in both personal development and parenting.
We explored how the words we say to ourselves, and to our children, can shape confidence, self-esteem, and overall well-being.
Dr. Helmstetter shares some fascinating insights into the neuroscience behind self-talk and how it literally programs the brain, for better or worse. Whether you’re a parent or not, this will really hit home.
We also talked about how we, as parents and educators, have a responsibility to help kids develop positive inner dialogue from a young age. Dr. Helmstetter offered practical ways to shift negative thought patterns and even walked through how to teach self-talk to children in everyday life.
The ripple effect of these conversations can be life-changing—not just for our kids, but for future generations.
This episode will speak to you as a parent, leader, or anyone who wants to create lasting impact—starting with the words we use.
It was such a meaningful discussion, and I can’t wait for you to hear it.
