Episode Description

In this episode, we’re talking about the problem with affirmations. Affirmations have been a hot topic lately and don’t get me wrong, I believe in the power of affirmations. However, there are some problems with affirmations or our expectations around them. I’ve got a couple tips for you on how to make affirmations work for you and why they might be falling flat. 

 

In this episode, we’ll chat about:

  • Tools to help you approach positive affirmations
  • What to do when we don’t believe our affirmations yet
  • Unpacking the concept of Confirmation Bias and how we have the power to prove our thoughts (whether positive or negative) to be true
