If you’ve ever said, “I overthink everything,” this episode is for you.In this episode of Authenticity Lab, Dr. Kelsey Miles breaks down why overthinking happens, what rumination actually is, and how to stop feeling stuck in repetitive thoughts. Overthinking isn’t the problem. Directionless thinking is.You’ll learn:• The difference between overthinking and rumination• Why your brain acts like a nonstop hypothesis generator• The two types of overthinking (future simulation vs. past rumination)• How overthinking turns into shame and identity collapse• How to pivot from paralysis into small, powerful experimentsYour brain is designed to simulate possible futures and replay past outcomes. That’s adaptive. But without a stopping rule, it creates stuckness. The goal isn’t to think less. It’s to think in a direction that creates momentum.In this episode, you’ll learn how to:Calibrate what you’re actually overthinkingDesign a small experimentGather data instead of sitting in “what if” landBuild self-trust one small action at a timeIf you’re feeling stuck in overthinking, this will give you the next step.✨ Want to try the Life Experiments method for yourself?Email “COURSE” [email protected] I’ll send you the free mini-course with short videos and a worksheet to help you design your first small experiment.You build self-trust one small move at a time.Be bold.
