Episode 550: The Story You Made Up About Why You Can't

from Grace & Grit Podcast · host Grace & Grit LLC

Every woman I have ever worked with carries a story about why she can't — can't change, can't sustain it, can't trust herself, can't start over at this point. Those stories feel like facts. They are not facts. Our brains construct narratives around painful experiences and encode them as truth — running quietly in the background, limiting what we attempt and what we believe is possible. Drawing on Brené Brown's Rising Strong, Courtney teaches a three-step framework to name the story, examine how old it actually is, and replace it with one that's more accurate than it is positive.
