345: How to Change Your Past

In this episode, host Tonya Leigh shares the power of changing our past and introduces the concept of how our perception of our past can greatly impact our present and future. Tanya reflects on her experience in the Bay Area and how she had to adjust her expectations of the weather. She also discusses her fiancé, Fonz, and his remarkable perspective on his difficult childhood. Despite facing challenges growing up, Fonz sees his past as a grand adventure. By adopting this mindset and storytelling of our future selves, we can build confidence and become unstoppable. This episode highlights that it is the story we have about events from our past that holds us back, not the events themselves. We possess the power to change our story, which in turn can change our perception of the past. By reframing our past experiences in a positive and empowering light, we can overcome fear, lack of confidence, and other obstacles that may impede us from pursuing our dreams. Tune in to learn how shifting our perception of our past can transform our lives.   The details:   [00:02:08] Fonz's unique childhood perspective. [00:07:20] Shame and fear holding back.
