Ep 51: Stop Turning Off the Lights

from Think New Thoughts · host Emily Ricks

We all have moments when emotions feel too heavy, so we reach for something—our phones, food, shopping, Netflix—to take the edge off. It works for a minute, but those "buffers" don't solve the mess, they just hide it. In this episode, I'll help you start to notice some of your buffers, and start to understand how they might actually be limiting you more than helping you.  I'll share how you can keep the lights on--which may feel super uncomfortable in the moment--but it's the path to real freedom. Discover more about buffering (for free!) in my recent 60 minute workshop Stop Buffering:  The Truth about over-eating, over-scrolling, over-spending, and over-analyazing...and how to stop.  Use the the code FIRSTMONTHFREE to get a 30 day trial of The Think New Thoughts Academy, where you can experience this workshop (and lots of other resources to help you live with more joy!)   Learn more about my 8-week private coaching program for Christian moms.
