Have you ever felt like your own brain was working against you? Like you’re trying to make a positive change, but that little voice in your head keeps throwing doubts, fears, and excuses your way? That’s not just you—it’s science!

In this episode, we’re diving into the fascinating battle between your lower brain (the survival-focused, fear-based part of your mind) and your frontal cortex (the logical, problem-solving CEO of your brain). We’ll explore how your thoughts aren’t always true—sometimes they’re just habits your brain has picked up over the years. And the best part? You have the power to challenge and reframe them.

I’ll be sharing:
✔️ A personal story about how my post-bariatric surgery brain had me in an all-out war over food cravings and survival instincts
✔️ What happens when our lower brain defaults to fear, stress, and self-doubt
✔️ Insights from Dr. Amy Johnson’s book, Just a Thought, on how to break free from limiting beliefs
✔️ Three fun and practical strategies to flip the script on negative thoughts and start training your brain to work for you instead of against you

If you’re ready to stop letting fear and self-doubt control your decisions, this episode is for you! Tune in, test out these mindset shifts, and start rewriting the stories you tell yourself.

🎧 Listen now! And don’t forget to subscribe, next week, we have a special guest, Susie Schaefer, joining us to talk about the power of storytelling and how sharing your experiences can create impact!
