Listen "Ep. 93 - Thinking Greater Than Your Emotions: Interrupting the Mind-Body Feedback Loop"
Episode Synopsis
Ever notice how you can go from feeling confident… to spiraling in self-doubt… in a matter of minutes?That’s not weakness. That’s a pattern.And once you see it, you can change it.In this episode, we’re unpacking the mind-body feedback loop—the often-invisible cycle where your body sends a signal, your brain assigns it meaning, and together they reinforce a story that feels true…even when it isn’t helpful.This loop isn’t just frustrating—it’s familiar. It’s your nervous system working to create internal consistency. But internal consistency doesn’t always support growth. Sometimes it keeps you anchored to a version of yourself you’ve already outgrown.We explore:Why change feels hard at the identity levelHow the brain and body mirror and reinforce one anotherWhat it really means to “think greater than your emotions”Why emotional tension isn’t a sign to retreat—but a signal to recalibrateAnd how to work with your mind-body loop to support who you’re becomingThis episode bridges awareness and application, giving you insight and language to interrupt old patterns—and reroute them with intention.Cited ResourcesBreaking the Habit of Being Yourself by Joe DispenzaAwareness by Anthony de MelloIf this episode resonated with you, please take a moment to share it with someone who might find it helpful.Follow me on InstagramFind me on LinkedInGet 1:1 life and mindset coachingLife can be so much more than we think.
