REVIEW OF THE WEEK: 
 


Highly recommend!!!! 5 Stars v.AlissaI've listened to various podcasts and Ted talks about confidence and mental strength but this is by far the best! Trish's words are encouraging, motivating, and comforting, and if you practice what she teaches you'll realize how real they are. I have become my most confident, authentic self since discovering this podcast and I can't wait to continue my mental healthy journey with Trish as my guide. Keep it up Trish, you are a God send! 




 
SECOND GUESSING YOURSELF + MIND DRAMA
 


Mind drama: it will always happen, but you don’t always have to get sucked into it.  Second Guessing:Happens when we don't trust ourselves.Happens when we experience the phenomenon of mind drama  What is mind drama:Ping-pong conversations with yourself.The knot of thoughts that you unravel only to find knotted again.Needing to reset your thoughts over and over Mind drama is normal:Managing your mind is part of living a highly effective lifeYou aren't failing if you need to reset and realign your thoughtsIt's normal to need to set your mindWe'll always have resistance pushing in on us  Why We Second-Guess Ourselves in the First Place:We think the mind drama means we're out of controlWe're too attached to old identities (like we don't follow through)We have thorns of perfectionism still clinging to us (the desire for all circumstances to be just right) We care too much what people think
