What if your Throat Chakra is not just about speaking — but about truth?In this episode of The Constance Messmer Podcast, I take a soulful and practical deep dive into the Throat Chakra — the chakra of truth, communication, trust, self-expression, and inner knowing.I share how this energy center can reveal where you are silencing yourself, talking yourself into situations that are not right for you, struggling to trust your instincts, or carrying old stories that still affect how you express yourself today. I also explore the connection between the Throat Chakra and the Solar Plexus, the role of intuition in communication, and why your words — spoken or unspoken — carry real energetic weight.
Odysseus rejects becoming a god... why?Today on Ascend: The Great Books Podcast, Dcn. Harrison Garlick is joined by Dr. Glenn Arbery of Wyoming Catholic College and Dr. Frank Grabowski of Holy Family Classical School to discuss BOOK FIVE of the Odyssey--arguably one of the important passages in the entire Odyssey and in the Western canon.Check out Ascend on X, Facebook, Instagram, and Patreon.Check out our written study guide to the Odyssey!Odysseus is offered everything a man could desire: immortality, endless pleasure, and the love of the goddess Calypso on her enchanted island. Yet he refuses, choosing instead the path of suffering, homecoming, and humanity. The conversation unpacks why Odysseus weeps on the shore despite his Edenic surroundings, the deeper meaning of his refusal, and the timeless question Homer poses to every listener: Would you say no to immortal pleasure?The scholars dive into rich themes—Odysseus's interior dialogue with his own thumos (spirit), the contrast between Calypso's cave and rocky Ithaca, the subtle work of the gods and fate, and striking antecedents to Platonic psychology.With insightful close readings, connections to the Iliad, and reflections on identity, place, and human flourishing, this discussion transforms a single book into a meditation on what truly makes life worth living. Whether you're new to Homer or revisiting the epic, this episode will leave you eager for more. Highly recommended for anyone who loves great books, philosophy, or wrestling with life's biggest questions.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Ascend and the Great Books04:13 Exploring the Odyssey: Book Five09:41 Athena's Plea and Zeus's Response23:53 Odysseus on Calypso's Island: A Study of Contrast34:43 The Choice of Immortality: Odysseus's Dilemma39:32 The Identity of Odysseus: Suffering and Immortality41:02 The Nature of Human Desire and Fulfillment42:56 The Dilemma of Odysseus: Choices and Consequences45:14 The Complexity of Fidelity: Odysseus and the Goddesses48:09 Homer's Moral Landscape: Understanding Odysseus51:14 The Role of Place in Identity and Homecoming54:05 The Symbolism of Clothing: Calypso vs. Nausicaa01:09:40 The Wrath of Poseidon: Odysseus's Struggles at Sea01:13:35 The Inner Dialogue of Odysseus: Heart and Mind01:17:23 The Weight of Time and Suffering01:20:04 The Complexity of Divine Intervention01:22:21 Agency and Internal Dialogue01:25:20 Mortality and Immortality: The Role of Women01:29:10 Navigating Divine Guidance01:31:20 The Human Experience and Divine Learning01:33:56 The Journey to the Shore: A Symbol of Rebirth01:40:05 The Significance of the Olive Tree01:43:41 The Transformation of OdysseusKeywords: Odyssey Book 5, Book Five of the Odyssey, Odysseus Calypso, Odysseus refuses immortality, Homer Odyssey Book 5, Calypso's island, why does Odysseus refuse immortality, Odysseus choice Calypso, Homer Odyssey analysis, Ascend the Great Books, Odysseus thumos, Platonic soul Homer, Odysseus homecoming, fate Zeus Odyssey, Odysseus rebirth, Calypso pleasure island, great books podcast OdysseyBe sure to check out our Odyssey episodes from 2024 too!
In this episode of the Observatory Podcast, Scott and LaRae Wright explore the subtle but powerful ways awareness shifts how we experience life. What begins as a reflection on communication and perception evolves into a deeper conversation about how we interpret reality, the language we use internally, and how small realizations can create profound changes in how we show up. Through personal experiences and thoughtful dialogue, they unpack the difference between reacting and observing, how meaning is created, and why paying attention to the smallest details can transform relationships, self-awareness, and presence. This episode invites listeners to slow down, listen more closely, and reconsider how they engage with the world around them.Timestamps[00:00:18] Opening reflections and introducing the theme of awareness[00:02:12] How language shapes perception and experience[00:05:44] Noticing patterns in communication and internal dialogue[00:09:31] The difference between reacting and observing[00:13:12] Awareness as a practice, not a destination[00:17:40] How small shifts create meaningful change[00:21:18] Letting go of rigid interpretations[00:25:06] Recognizing where we assign meaning[00:28:33] Applying awareness in everyday lifeQuotes“Sometimes we're not reacting to what's actually happening… we're reacting to the meaning we've assigned to it.” – Scott Wright [05:52]“When you start paying attention, you realize how much of your experience is created internally.” – Scott Wright [09:38]“It's not about controlling your thoughts… it's about noticing them.” – LaRae Wright [13:20] “Awareness isn't something you arrive at, it's something you practice.” – Scott Wright [13:42] “The moment you see it, you can choose something different.” – LaRae Wright [21:24]Relevant linksSubscribe to the podcast: Apple PodcastProduced by NC Productions.
Everyone has a plan — until life forces a pivot.In this episode of Walk In Victory, NaRon Tillman sits down with Regena to explore the power of internal dialogue, emotional mastery, and how to navigate life when things don't go as planned. Life rarely moves in a straight line. It shifts, interrupts, and challenges identity. The question is not whether disruption will come — but how you respond when it does. Together, they unpack:The art of pivoting when life doesn't go your wayHow your internal “soundtrack” shapes your realityBreaking cycles of self-sabotage and repeated patternsThe connection between mindset, body, and nervous systemWhy awareness is the first step to transformationRewriting limiting beliefs through micro-movementsThe intersection of neuroscience and spiritualityThis conversation is for anyone feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or ready to take control of their internal narrative and move forward with clarity. You may not control the moment. But you can control the meaning you assign to it.

Real change isn't about knowing what to do — it's about actually doing it, one small choice at a time.Change doesn't come from one big breakthrough. It comes from the small choices we make over and over — often in moments we barely notice.Eric Zimmer, behavior coach, host of The One You Feed podcast, and author of How A Little Becomes A Lot, says the real challenge isn't figuring out what to do — it's closing the gap between knowing and doing. “We all have areas where we know exactly what would help,” he says. “But somehow, we still don't follow through.” His approach focuses on something simpler and more effective: small, low-resistance actions done consistently over time. “It's not about doing everything,” Zimmer explains. “It's about doing something — again and again — in the same direction.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Zimmer joins host Matt Abrahams to unpack how lasting change actually happens. From building awareness in the middle of everyday life to designing habits that are easier to stick with, he shares practical strategies for turning intention into action. “You don't need to wait until you feel ready,” he says. “You can act even when it's uncomfortable.”Episode Reference Links:Eric ZimmerEric's Book: How a Little Becomes a LotEric's Podcast: The One You FeedEp.86 Building Habits: The Key to Lasting Behavior Change Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:24) - From Addiction to Transformation (03:34) - The “Two Wolves” Parable (05:19) - Awareness in Communication (06:53) - Building Awareness Through Small Habits (08:47) - The Knowing–Doing Gap (10:11) - The SPAR Framework (13:46) - Motivation vs. Action (18:31) - The Final Three Questions (23:58) - Conclusion ********Thank you to our sponsors.

In this episode of The Slight Shift Show, Chris and Angela explore the profound impact of small mental adjustments. They dive into the concept of "seasonal depression," the power of internal narratives, and how a simple "slight shift" in vocabulary, can transform "Impossible" into "I'm Possible." Drawing on the philosophy of Il Il Shin…Be Better Every Day, they discuss why the voices inside must dominate the influences outside. Key Discussion Points Combating Seasonal Depression: How shifting focus from the "gray skies" to the "stillness of the air" can change your emotional state during seasonal transitions. The Power of Narrative: A discussion on Victor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning and how controlling your inner dialogue is the ultimate freedom. The Reticular Activating System (RAS): Why you see more of what you focus on, whether it's negative thoughts or a specific make of car. "I Can't" vs. "I Can Try": Angela shares a story from her Girl Scout troop about how removing a single word can unlock a child's, or adult's potential. Rule Number One of Il Il Shin: Keeping the rules even when there are no rules, the essence of self-discipline and mastery. The "Yeah, But" Challenge: A practical tool to counter negative thoughts by immediately following them with a positive alternative.

In this episode, Dr. Tam and Dr. Cruz Martinez go deeper on how inner dialogue can fuel anxiety and fear or, with intentional language, build confidence and resilience. Dr. Cruz shares his own vet school experience of spiraling thoughts and explains how repeated self-talk becomes beliefs, identity, and behavior. Using examples from parenting and everyday commitments, he highlights three energy-depleting words—“try,” “should,” and “but”—and explains how they can create ambiguity, guilt, and mental confusion. He offers alternatives such as clear commitments, “do my best,” “want,” “yet,” “will,” and replacing “but” with “and” to create forward momentum. They emphasize that change requires consistent practice, self-awareness, and patience while retraining long-standing mental patterns.

What actually separates people who say they want hard things from those who follow through for years?In this episode of Common Denominator, I sit down with endurance athlete Mark Dowdle for a deep conversation on discipline, faith, suffering, and what it really takes to do difficult things over long periods of time.Mark shares where his mindset comes from, why consistency—not motivation—is the real differentiator, and how his relationship with faith reshaped his identity after chasing validation through extreme physical challenges. He opens up about running the Calendar Club challenge for an entire year, racing in life-threatening conditions at Arrowhead 135, and the moment he realized that external praise was never going to fill the void.Mark and I explore the psychology of quitting, the inner dialogue that convinces people to stop just before a breakthrough, and why no one accomplishes hard things alone. From the importance of choosing the right life partner to the role of accountability, truth-telling, and surrender, this conversation is a grounded look at what sustained excellence actually requires.This episode is a reminder that discipline isn't about feeling ready — it's about showing up anyway.In This Episode, You'll Learn:- Why some people are drawn to hard things—and how that mindset is shaped early- How redefining failure changes everything- The difference between real danger and mental excuses- Why external validation eventually collapses- How faith reframes suffering, purpose, and discipline- Why motivation is unreliable—and discipline is required- The role of accountability, partners, and “truth tellers”- Why consistency is the true common denominator of high performersTimestamps:02:39 – Redefining Failure03:47 – Validation, High Goals & Dropout Points04:47 – Shifting Identity Away from External Praise06:00 – Faith, Purpose & Olympic-Level Emptiness08:23 – Calendar Club Challenge & Expectation Collapse10:15 – Surrender, Entitlement & Freedom12:24 – Pushing the Line Between Discomfort and Danger14:28 – Inner Dialogue, Fear & Presence16:00 – Accountability, Marriage & Not Quitting18:11 – Love, Truth & Saying the Hard Thing21:12 – Discipline vs Motivation23:22 – Confidence Through Evidence25:10 – The True Common Denominator: Consistency26:19 – Final Reflections & Sign-OffLike this episode?

“There’s a massive link between the way that we talk to ourselves and the results that we get in the world.” In this episode, Nick dives into the significance of our inner dialogue and its profound impact on our external experiences. He emphasizes the importance of shaping our inner dialogue to navigate life’s challenges and the ups and downs we experience each day. Nick explores the mechanics of self-talk, the role of awareness in recognizing negative patterns, and the necessity of self-reflection in personal growth. What to listen for: Our inner dialogue directly influences our external experiences We often allow ourselves to be negative without realizing it Transforming our inner dialogue requires conscious effort and practice Self-reflection is key to understanding our internal narratives Building a healthier inner dialogue takes time and commitment “If we understand our internal dialogue, we can then make different decisions.” Words do matter, and we're saying the most words to ourselves every day Recognizing the way we speak to ourselves is a critical first step to changing our inner dialogue By addressing and changing the way we speak to ourselves, we'll naturally be in a better position to understand the world around us “When we have the inner dialogue that isn’t actually healed, it’s not helpful for us; then it makes the rest of our lives more and more difficult.” The perspective of our inner dialogue colors our view of the world and instantly sets us at a disadvantage in life Think of the negative inner dialogue as a human and see how you really feel about its communication style and comments on your life When we process and heal from trauma and limiting beliefs, our inner dialogue needs to be healed as well; this can be a lifelong process About Nick McGowan I'm Nick McGowan, an entrepreneur, podcaster, and mental health advocate, and I’ve been on a 20+ year journey of personal development, learning to master my mindset, emotions, and the art of living with purpose.

I’m your host, Nick McGowan. Today on the show, I want to talk about shaping our inner dialogue to get better external results. And on the show, I like to get really macro with things because I think that’s where change actually happens. It’s in those moments where we work on the stuff now before the situation happens that we’ll be better equipped to handle whatever situation comes up. I’ve learned this the hard way. Sometimes I think I’m really prepared. I’m good to go. Then I get into a situation and something happens. It’s like, my God, I didn’t expect that to happen. I didn’t know how to handle it or whatever it was. And those moments can literally make or break us because sometimes when we’re going through a situation that we’re maybe a little uncomfortable with or not as confident about, we can start to falter on the things like our principles. or the things that we know to be true and are really consistent within ourselves. So when I think about having an internal dialogue, that’s more of a positive mindset dialogue. This isn’t something to just bypass the stuff that you’ve been through. This is about being able to understand that the moment you’re in right then and there is the only moment that you actually have. So when you’re in that moment, whatever the situation is, If your inner dialogue is in a negative place, let’s say, then that moment’s probably going to turn out not as good as you want it to be, just straight up. But if your inner dialogue is more on a positive note, and I’m using these as black and whites in a sense, then you’re bound to have a better overall experience because of the inner dialogue. So think about it this way. If you wake up in the morning and you instantly think, Today’s gonna be such a shitty day. I hate all these things. I don’t even wanna get out of bed. don’t wanna ever. You probably argue with your partner. You yell at your kids or your animals or whatever. You get on the road, you drive to your office and you’re shitty with everybody else on the road. Nick McGowan (02:37.462)if you woke up a little differently and had a overall mindset and experience from waking up, you probably, even if something happened with your spouse, your partner or your animals or the dude driving past you, you’re probably going to handle that situation differently, at least slightly differently. Now, if you wake up in the morning and you hate yourself and you hate everything that’s going on, there’s work there. be done. It may also be part of your design. I’ve learned about myself that I will wake up in two different states. Super excited, or grumpy as fuck to put it nicely, because in those states, when I wake up and I am unsure of what I want to do or whatever it is that really determines what happens next. I’ve learned about myself that I’m in one of those two states for some reason that has happened the day before. I’ll give you a prime example. I’ve been busy for the past few months and haven’t been able to play music as much. And I’m actively working on an album. And for me, playing music and even just working through concepts of riffs and just even drum parts for like three hours does magical things for me that helps me at a bass level feel like I’m doing something for myself. Not just doing things for clients or for other people or even things for my business that are still for myself, but just, you know, they’re not me playing music and scratching that itch. Being able to spend a little bit of time with that has become really, really, really important to me because I understand that the more aware I am of that, the more that it’ll affect the next day. It’s not a magical pill. It’s not like, you know, I play guitar for two hours one night and then the next day it’s the best fucking day in the entire world. It’s not how this works. But I do understand that that is a part of how I relate to the rest of the world. And I can be aware of that and do something with it. So let’s break down what inner dialogue is. You know what it is. It’s the talking to yourself. If we look at a shitty internal dialogue, you know exactly what that is as well, because I’m pretty sure you do it pretty often. We all do. Nick McGowan (04:59.702)Even the people that say, no, I’m constantly positive. I’m constantly this, constantly that. You don’t really know what those conversations are internally. We just don’t. And I think the people that are bypassing and toxic positivity in a sense, they’re hurting themselves. And I know that because I’ve done that before too. Haven’t you? We’ve all done something like that where we’ve said, this is how I want to be. So I’m just going to do it and not do the work with it. When we have the inner dialogue that isn’t actually healed and it’s not helpful for us, then it makes the rest of our lives more and more difficult. I don’t want to take this down the path of saying this is the only thing that’ll fix everything because I have heard at times where people say you can’t just mindset your way through things. I know that is not what this is about. This is about setting yourself up from a better perspective. and also being able to look at the thing and say, you know, I’m feeling real shitty right now. Why is that? If we can understand where that has come from, even just to know this is the thing, this is what happened, or this is what made me feel this way, or the reason why I feel this way, or the reason why I’m being negative, or even the reason why I’m being super positive, we can at least understand why that is to then do something with it from there. I think sometimes we as people, just allow ourselves to be shitty, just straight up. And I get it. I am shitty at times. The people that know me the best absolutely know this. And sometimes I’ve thought that it was part of my process. That’s how I go through things. And that’s not always the case because there’s being curious, there’s being judgmental, and some of that can like overlap. But then there’s also just being really shitty about things because I don’t feel good about a situation. or feel good in my body or didn’t sleep well enough or whatever it was. But the internal dialogue that says today’s gonna be shitty or this is gonna happen, it’s gonna be bad, whatever. Sometimes those aren’t actually even words. It’s just a feeling. So if we take apart our inner dialogue just over the course of one day and catch the moments where we’re being really, really shitty, I don’t mean to just keep using that, but that’s kinda how it is. Nick McGowan (07:23.778)We’re shitty, we’re being grumpy, we’re being negative about a situation and not actually working through the situation. I’m not talking about sitting there for two hours and processing a thing, but at least understanding that right now I’m feeling this way. So what can I do now to be able to get through your work day or the situation you’re in or what have you? And it can be a mechanical sort of approach of saying, well, I’m going to choose to have a better mindset with this right now. Again, I don’t want you to think of this as bypassing. We are never bypassing. If you need to do work on these things, do the work. But that doesn’t always mean you can do it right then and there. It’s not about just saying, all right, world, time out. I need to process through a thing. Now granted, there are some people that can do that. And for business owners, sometimes it’s easier for us to do that. Sometimes it’s straight up not because there’s just a lot going on. There are many things happening, lots of questions. And as the owner of a company, we, you know, we’re the ones. so the buck stops with us. So we need to be able to answer those things or be on or what have you. But understanding where our internal dialogue is will ultimately shape how the rest of the outcomes are. And it took me a long time to really understand that. And it took me even longer to start to put it into action. And it’s taken me even longer for it to become part of who I am. I joke now about certain things that should have I thought should have taken me a lot faster to get through, but that’s not how it works. So understanding why we have the inner dialogue that we do is almost as important as what we do with that inner dialogue from there. So the ongoing beliefs, the ongoing thoughts that we have, the self-talk that just running through us day in and day out, that’s our inner dialogue. But what’s the inner dialogue like? Nick McGowan (09:27.988)I heard somebody say to me years ago, if you had a friend that talked to you the way that you talk to yourself, you’d probably want to kick his ass. If not, take them off the planet. They’re totally right. I think about the stuff that you say to yourself. Think about it. Think about the stuff you probably said to yourself a fucking hour. Just let that sink in. If some other human said that to you, you’d potentially have a restraining order. You would not want them to be part of your life. Now you may actually have people that are part of your life that do that. You don’t have to do that to yourself. I want to make that clear. You don’t have to do that to yourself. It’s not a penance or anything, depending on what you had done in the past. It’s being able to actually take the dialogue that you have right now and say, well, today’s this day. This is what I have going on today. And if I don’t like those things or I want to change those things, great. Can I do it right now? Can I instantly change it, pivot to something else or what have you? And if you can, wonderful. If you can’t, then that’s what it is. You need to work through that and you need to be in that moment to do it. I think about it in the sense of people going to jobs that they hate. I can think back to different experiences I’ve had at different jobs. I remember sitting there watching the clock. Being like, fucking hate this. I can’t be here anymore. This is nonsense. Part of it was that I knew there was a greater calling for myself. Another part of it was me just being shitty about the situation that I was in and beating myself up because I put myself in that situation. Haven’t you done that? Think about the different times that you’ve done that. Think about the amount of times maybe even today that you’ve done that. And if we just pause that and say, I understand. And yeah, I don’t want to be in this spot right now. But I also understand that I’m just not able to snap my fingers and make a change instantly, and that things will take a little bit of time. That’s where you actually get to mechanically change your mindset and say, this is what I’m going to do. This is how I’m going to put my mind into motion in this specific situation. So if we think about inner dialogue and we think about the external results from that. Nick McGowan (11:44.63)you can start to look back at different situations where you say, you know, I experienced this differently than I had in the past because of the way that I thought about it going into the situation or because of the way that my way of being is now or whatever it was. If we break it down to a very black and white level, there was probably some positive or negative emotions and thoughts and feelings tied to whatever you were doing. And Even if it was subconscious where your subconscious was like, you know what? We’ve done this before, we can do it again. And you didn’t have to really think about it. It just kind of came out. That’s fine. That’s almost like it’s how you’ve healed from it. At least to some extent. Subconscious isn’t there to make us feel better. It’s there to keep us alive and safe. So you’ve probably experienced the opposite side of that more often than not. of I don’t really know what do in this situation. So I feel uncomfortable. I feel weird. I feel this. I feel that that’s normal. We all go through that stuff. I’ll give you an example with myself. I’ve had something recently local networking where I’ve gone out and met with different people. And whenever I get called up to the front to talk about my business, talk about myself, et cetera, there’s always a little bit underneath that’s like, Oh, do you look weird? Do you sound weird? Are you saying the right things? All of that. That’s our subconscious trying to just keep us safe. It’s abnormal. And if it’s not something you do every single day, or even if it’s something you’ve done for a long, long, long time, that can still be there. It’s trying to keep you safe and trying to keep you comfortable. But I know in those situations, I can look at that and go, I’m just going to go out and do what I do. And I’m going to rest on me being authentic. And worst case scenario, somebody says, You said something weird or you looked weird or you did whatever and think about it. Honestly, in most situations like that, if somebody says, I don’t like your shirt, fuck you. Who the fuck cares? Go away. It doesn’t matter. It’s all in our own heads and we’re the ones beating ourselves up about it. And for the most part, everybody else, when they’re having their own problems or thinking of you about, don’t like your shirt or they don’t like whatever it is. That’s a them problem. That has nothing to do with you. We can take that. Nick McGowan (14:05.112)And we can say, I can do something with it or next time I’ll wear a Hawaiian shirt because fuck you, whatever you want, you know? But being able to understand your own inner dialogue can be affected by other people, other situations, other things, but it’s really up to you to do something with your inner dialogue to then turn it into something external. Now I’m not saying that this is a hustle or grind sort of situation. Like you need to have better mindset so you can go out and make millions of dollars because everybody needs 50 fucking homes. That’s not the case at all. What I’m talking about is being able to actually work through your own inner dialogue to feel confident in yourself to do the thing you’re actively doing. But this happens in a nanosecond, which is again why I like to break down these macro pieces because we can work on it right now. where down the road when you get into that situation, you don’t just instantly flounder because you’re falling back on the negative mindset. You’re falling back into the mindset of, I don’t know what to do here, so I’m just gonna shit a little bit. And like, what the fuck? What do I say? What do I do? How do I act? You wanna be able to work on this stuff before you get into those situations so you don’t actually have to think about it while you’re in those situations. Getting back to my example of speaking in front of a room. I speak all the time. I talk to people all the time. I also really love being by myself. When working on my music or going through my sports cards or reading or whatever it is, just by myself, everybody leave me alone. But I know in those moments when I’m in front of people, I have to be on in a way that is truthful to me. Now past me, years and years and years ago, I would have turned on to become somebody else. Almost like the persona, the mamba mentality in a sense. Like I would just become somebody different. And there was always a bit of authenticity to it, but there was also tying into my winning strategy of how I could be loved and how it could be admired and how I could win and all of that. If we understand those components and those pieces, because those make up our internal dialogue, we can then make different decisions. But it’s understanding why our internal dialogue is the way that it is. Some of that may be trauma. Nick McGowan (16:28.3)Some of that may be somebody said something to you as a five-year-old that led you to believe a thing either about yourself, good or bad, or about other people, good or bad. And then that affected the way that you handled things from that point on. That changed the story that you lived from that point on. What I’m talking about is being able to understand why the components make up your internal dialogue and that your subconscious mind is just there to keep you safe. doesn’t really give a shit how you feel or how confident you are in a situation. It’s just there to keep you safe. If you can understand those things and you can understand how you’re acclimated toward things, then you can do something with that. So when you’re in a situation where you have to be in front of people or pick anything that makes you uncomfortable or it’s a little outside of the norm of what you’re used to, you’ll be in a better spot at that point to be able to not only handle that situation, handle yourself because you’ve extracted what the internal dialogue is. Now with me, like I said, I’ll wake up and I’ll either feel great or bad. That’s really black and white. And I’ve asked myself, I’ve started to ask myself each morning, how am I feeling right now? Am I feeling great? Am I feeling bad? And being honest with myself. There’s sometimes I wake up in the morning and I’m like, how are you feeling right now? I’m feeling great, feeling bad. I feel like shit. And I can understand it’s because maybe I ate something too late the night before, or I didn’t sleep well, or there’s something nagging in the back of my mind about some project or something that’s going on or something around the house or whatever it is. But if I can look at that and say, it’s that thing. It’s being able look at that thing and go, cool, well, I see you. And deciding, do I get to do something with it now? Do I need to? Do I not? Whatever it is. being able look at it and just see what it is has given me a lot of confidence to go, okay, cool. Well, now I know what it is. So I’m just going to move along instead of the fear of the unknown in a sense. Now about maybe, I don’t know, 15 years ago or so I was in a a rock band in Philadelphia and we had a song called white bear because of a concept that I learned where somebody said, if I asked you to not think about a white bear, Nick McGowan (18:54.146)Whatever you do, just don’t think about a white bear. So get the white bear out of your mind. It’s whatever you do, don’t think about a white bear. How many times did a white bear pop in your head? Pretty much every time I said it, right? So if we’re focusing on, be shitty, don’t be negative, guess what you’re gonna be? More than likely, probably shitty, probably negative. And the same goes for being positive. Say be really positive be this and be that and be external and do all these things The the thought of that can spur that on But it’s the act that happens within it and what happens after it that is the most important Because even if I said don’t think about a white bear You’re probably gonna think about it because I put it near the foreground here you think about a white bear and then from there you get a choice to be able to think do I want to build out what that white bear looks like. Do I want to think of that as a Coca-Cola bears or do I want to think about it as a bear that I saw when I was younger or whatever and you will start to kind of go through that path. But if you look at the negative and positive internal dialogue that we have, if you try to force yourself to push past something and bypass it, it might work for you right then and there, but it’s going to come back to bite you. So with all of this, your internal dialogue, if you start to understand why do you typically think about X while you’re in this sort of situation, or why do you feel this sort of way when you’re in X situation and think about that now before that situation happens again, I guarantee you will at least be in a better spot to be able to handle that. I can’t guarantee that it won’t look the way that it did before, but it will start to shift a little bit. had an experience a couple of years ago where I was doing a lot of internal work and folding inside out and it was fucking messy. And I remember having a conversation with my partner and I could feel myself welling up and there was a reaction that was about to come out. There was literally a part of me that told myself, Nick, shut the fuck up and leave the house. And guess what I did? I kept fucking talking and I didn’t leave the house and I was aware of it. Nick McGowan (21:19.242)And it was maddening because I thought, you know, I thought about this. I can just do this and like grab myself and leave. No, there was still trauma that needed to be worked through. There were things that were part of my subconscious that I needed to extract. I needed to reframe and needed to look through. And it took me a long time. And there’s still moments where that happens. Not exactly how it did before, but moments where I’ll start to come up and I go, I see you, you fuck. I’m not going to go down that path again. because I was able to do that work in those moments, but I also did work after those moments to say, all right, what happened? What do I do differently? How do I do this differently? It’s sort of like in sports where they watch game tape. They’ll go back and they’re not watching it to say, you fucked up here, you did this wrong. They’re saying, what could we do differently in these situations? And there’s a reason why those people do that. In a black and white way with sports, it can be easy to say you’re tape and film from a previous game or whatever. us. If you had a really shitty day and there was a lot of negative self-talk going through and then by the time you go home all you want to do is just watch TV and veg and look I get it. Especially somebody who’s found out that he’s more of an introvert than he ever thought he was. I really enjoy being able to spend that veg time of relaxing and just being away from people. I’ve also understood in those moments there are certain times where I’m really escaping. We’re trying to escape from something. I may be a little different than you. You may be a little different than me. We’re all different than each other, but we are also very similar and we go through the same sort of things. This is why I have the podcast for us to be able to talk about this stuff and actually call this stuff out because I can almost guarantee that you’ve had some sort of shitty conversation with yourself today. Even like, why did I do that? Or why the fuck didn’t I wash this thing? Or why didn’t this thing happen? Or what about this? and maybe you don’t call yourself an idiot anymore. Nick McGowan (23:22.958)the sentiment is still there at times, right? You know, like there are different things that come up where you’re like, man, what a dumb bastard, I shouldn’t have done that, blah, blah, blah. Again, if you had a friend or somebody else that was like that, you’d call the cops on them or you’d have a restraining order or something. So if you think about your inner dialogue and the stuff that you go through every single day and how it relates to not only the dialogues, either. Positive or negative influence on you But how the long-term effects actually relate to you because you’ll keep doing that over and over and over And sometimes it can be so ingrained that it’s really difficult to get ourselves out of it So one of the things that I really like to do and that I find to be the easiest thing to do in those situations Yep, oftentimes it’s kind of difficult when you’re really charged. So just be aware of it. Just straight up see it and go, man, I’m being shitty again. But catch it and don’t be an asshole to yourself. Don’t be like you’re being shitty, you dumb fuck. Don’t, be nice to yourself about it. You also want to, in some ways, of parent yourself with that. Like, yeah, don’t do that anymore. Let’s look at what’s going on. Let’s actually talk through it. Let’s work through it. So if you have that simple awareness practice of just saying, I see these things. Maybe for you, it’s taking notes of it and saying, I saw this today, I saw this today, this happened, et cetera, et cetera. Maybe it’s just mental notes. Maybe it’s things that you’ve seen over and over and over and you actually don’t want to touch them. Oftentimes that’s because there’s a fear of the unknown or some blocker that’s blocking you from that. And that’s where professionals come into play. People that can help as therapists or different modalities or mentors or… anybody that can kind of work with you on those things that have been through some of that. But at least you can be aware of those things. And I think there’s such power in awareness. The more aware you are, the more aware you are. Like you can’t not see a thing after you’ve seen it. Sometimes it’ll take seeing it 10, 15, 20 times or even more. But you know that you probably have bad dialogue with yourself at times, but you know, I’m better off than I was before. Nick McGowan (25:41.826)or whatever excuse you add in. And that’s fine, because it’s your life, you get to do whatever you want. The question is really, how long do you want to sit in that shit for? And that can be, it can be a dumb question to certain people. They’re like, of course I don’t want to sit in that shit, but yet you’re still sitting in that shit. And look, I do this as well. Every day there are things that happen. And I ask myself, do I want to be shitty about this? No, but you’re gonna fucking damn it, blah, blah, blah. like, all right, Nick. get through it, and now let’s have the conversation. Sometimes you need to let that energy out. Sometimes you also need to go through it a bit to then understand, it’s really in these situations when this happens because I feel this way, or I think this thing. And all that inner dialogue really shapes the way that our external worlds are because we’re setting ourselves up for either success or failure when it comes to that. So I wanna reinforce. that there’s a massive link between the way that we talk to ourselves and the results that we get in the world. And that there isn’t anything to do with hustle or grind culture or going out and making bunches of money or even the total opposite of that and like saving all the homeless people from the entire world. Talking about being able to actually incorporate this into your daily life in every aspect of life. but it takes breaking down how are you having those conversations in your head and what’s coming out of those conversations every single time. And do you want to change that? Do you not want to change that? I want you to think about two things. Think about two situations where, and I’m super confident and comfortable in this sort of situation. Some people might be public speaking. Some people might be playing music. It might be whatever the thing is. And then I want you to also think of what are the situations? One or two situations that make me super uncomfortable. And I’m not telling you have to go share this with the world or talk to other people about it, but to yourself. Like there might be things that you go, I really feel uncomfortable about this, but this is a major part of my job or whatever it is. Great. Look at that. And then start to write out what comes up when I think about this. What comes up in those exact situations. Nick McGowan (28:05.838)because we can all recall a situation and we can put ourselves back in that spot. That’s a fun little playground. It’s like a simulation in the sense to be able to go through and say, I remember being in this spot and maybe feel this way and whatever. But in reality, if you’re able to actually understand why you do the things you do because of the conversations you’re having in your head, you’re able to change the way that you move through the world and therefore able to change the way that you impact the world. And that’s what this is all about. I don’t believe that purpose is just for us as selfish human beings. I believe that purpose actually incorporates the rest of the world and even just our small little corner of the web of life. But if we can change the way that we look at things internally, we can then change the way that we act around and toward other people and ultimately change the way that we live life. You also need to do the work of the things that are coming up that are blocking you or stopping you. So if you have questions about this, you wanna understand what has worked for me or what you could potentially do different than what you’re doing now, please feel free to reach out. I’d love to hear from you. And if there are certain topics like this that you want more discussions on, you want me to unpack more of, I’d love to hear from you. So thank you so much for being with me today. I hope this is helpful and I hope you do something with it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I5nAkIFbQII
Lasting, authentic confidence is not possible when your inner dialogue is full of threats, name calling, and a constantly downplaying of your accomplishments. Even if the way you talk to yourself isn't overtly mean, if you're not giving yourself credit for the amazing work you do–and, spoiler, it genuinely amazing to be able to write entire books–you're blocking yourself from the confidence you deserve. In the final episode in our confidence series, I'm breaking down how to shift the way you talk to yourself to build lasting confidence. *** Ready to let go of burnout, build confidence, and put fun back into your fiction career?

Nutrition Nugget! Bite-sized bonus episodes offer tips, tricks and approachable science. This week, Jenn is talking about the C-C-C, which stands for Catch, Challenge, Change. Do your negative thoughts secretly sabotage your health goals? When that inner voice says "you're too busy," "you have no willpower," or "you've failed again," is it telling the truth or just repeating old patterns that hold you back? Jenn introduces a practical mental tool to interrupt the defeating thought loops we all experience on our wellness journeys. But here's the real question: are you actually too tired for that workout, or is something else going on? Could the "evidence" of failure actually be hiding signs of progress you're refusing to see? Jenn breaks down how to catch these negative thoughts in action, challenge the beliefs behind them, and ultimately transform your inner dialogue. But the approach might surprise you. Is it really about being "1% better every day," or is there a more realistic way to build mental toughness without the pressure? Like what you're hearing?

Send us a textWe all have an inner dialogue. But how often do we lead it?In this episode of Think Again & Be, we explore the biblical practice of speaking to the soul—training the inner voice to align with truth, faith, and joy rather than fear, anxiety, or circumstance.Building on the previous episode Thanksgiving by Faith, this conversation looks at how faith is voice-activated, how joy is cultivated from the inside out, and why Scripture repeatedly shows God's people talking to themselves before they speak to the world.From David encouraging himself in the Lord, to Jeremiah finding hope in the darkest moment, to Habakkuk choosing joy before the harvest, we see that transformation often begins with rightful self-talk.This episode is an invitation to reclaim your inner voice— to speak faith, remember truth, and create an atmosphere of joy that sustains life.Scriptures ReferencedPsalm 42:5; 43:5Lamentations 3:241 Samuel 30:6Habakkuk 3:16–19Psalm 91:2Joel 3:10Philemon 1:6–7Key ThemesFaith is voice-activatedSpeaking to the soulJoy as an atmosphere, not a moodAnxiety is not your identityTraining the inner voiceThanksgiving, praise, and joy as a cycleGet Your Hopes Up!@damiteninwww.bydami.comwww.tribalmarks.com

So many of us have tried to “fix” our inner dialogue by replacing thoughts or forcing ourselves to be more positive. But when the inner voice is critical or relentless, it's usually because something inside is hurting or under strain. The words are just the part we hear … but the tone and feeling state come from much deeper places within. In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, I guide you through a gentle somatic meditation that helps you turn toward the feelings underneath your inner dialogue. You'll be invited to bring compassionate awareness to the sensations and emotions in your body, and to begin meeting the parts within that need support and understanding. When these deeper feelings are seen and cared for, the inner world often begins to soften on its own. Your inner voice changes when your inner world is cared for. If you're ready for your inner dialogue to feel a little less harsh and a little more supportive, come listen now.

Your self-talk is the only voice you hear 24/7 — and most days, it's not that kind. For many golfers and entrepreneurs, that inner dialogue quietly runs the show: it talks you out of what you know you should be doing, keeps you glued to comfort, and convinces you you're not ready, not worthy, or not capable of the next level. In this episode of The Scratch Golfer's Mindset Podcast, I sit down with mindset coach Trevor Tellin to unpack how your inner voice shapes your identity, your confidence, and your results — on the golf course and in business. In this episode, you'll learn: Spot the invisible ways your self-talk sabotages your golf game and business. Use a simple "reward scale" to win more debates between the couch and the range. Personify your inner voices so you can work with them instead of being ruled by them. Create space between you and your thoughts so they feel less personal and more workable. Use Interloop to capture real self-talk data from your rounds and turn it into growth. Understand fear of success, over-identifying with "the grind," and how they keep you stuck. Build mental toughness and confidence through repetition, hard things, and self-compassion. Get your pencils ready and start listening. P.P.S.

Instagram: @thegolfhypnotherapist Key Takeaways: Awareness is everything — most self-talk patterns run on autopilot until you finally slow down enough to hear them. Every choice is an exchange; comfort feels good now, but it often carries the hidden cost of slowing or blocking your long-term growth. Scoring your choices helps you override resistance by comparing the real value of short-term comfort vs. long-term reward. Personifying your inner voices creates separation, making it easier to recognize which ones help you and which ones hijack you. Tools like Interloop reveal patterns you'd never notice on your own, giving you tangible data to change your on-course self-talk. Fear of success often drives sabotage — when you get close to the next level, the uncertainty of "what comes with it" pulls you back. Mental toughness and confidence come from repetition, doing hard things, and proving to yourself (again and again) that you can handle discomfort. Key Quotes: "We're so familiar with our inner voice that we don't realize how often it runs the show." "We rationalize sabotage because the excuses sound convincing coming from ourselves." "Every decision is an exchange — you can't get what you want without giving up something." "When you personify a limiting voice, it becomes easier to question and redirect it."

In this episode of Workday Playdate, Erin unpacks a simple idea: your words are wands. AKA, the way you talk to yourself is actively shaping what happens next.Erin introduces the concept of “Words Are Wands,” exploring how inner dialogue influences confidence, creativity, opportunity, and action. Drawing from improv, neuroscience, and real-life moments, she breaks down why most of us are stuck in negative, repetitive thought loops, and how to interrupt them on purpose.Through a five-step improv-based framework, Erin shows how reframing your thoughts isn't “toxic positivity,” it's a skill. One that helps you work with your brain (hello, Reticular Activating System) instead of against it.The big takeaway: when you change your language, you change what feels possible.Inside This Episode:Words Are Wands: How your inner dialogue quietly dictates your future.The Thought Loop Problem: Why 80% of our thoughts are negative, 95% are repetitive, and what that means for confidence and burnout.Reframing Without the Eye Roll: How to shift thoughts in a way that actually unlocks creativity and forward motion.The Brain on Focus (RAS Explained): How your Reticular Activating System filters reality, and how to train it to spot opportunities instead of threats.An Improv Framework for Mindset Shifts: A five-step approach for noticing thoughts, reframing language, and choosing aligned action.Small Actions, Big Shifts: Why tiny, intentional moves matter more than dramatic mindset overhauls.Who This Episode Is For:High performers stuck in negative self-talk or overthinking loopsLeaders, creatives, and humans who want more confidence and clarityAnyone craving a mindset shift that's practical, playful, and grounded Fans of improv, personal growth, and brain-friendly self-improvementYour FreebieYou've tried the emails, the all-hands rollout, and the polished decks, but the vision still isn't landing.That's because people don't buy into a vision that's presented to them; they buy into one they help shape.

Is Instacart charging you more than your friends for the SAME food? A new investigation claims grocery delivery apps quietly experiment with dynamic pricing — charging different customers different prices for identical items based on algorithms and purchasing behavior. Nate and Chuck break down: • What's actually going on with Instacart pricing • Why almost every industry already does this • Minnesota's insane COVID fraud scandal • How government contracts became pass-through scams • The real economics behind "price fairness" This episode dives into consumer outrage, market logic, and why emotional reactions drive bad policy.

For years, we were told that the secret to spiritual awakening was simple: stay positive, think high-vibe thoughts, avoid negativity, and manifest harder. But what if that entire framework is backwards? What if the real catalyst for consciousness expansion isn't escaping low vibration...but using it? In this solo episode, Will cracks open the myth of “high vibes only” and exposes why so many seekers feel stuck, frustrated, or inconsistent in their manifestation progress. Drawing from a raw, paradigm-shifting conversation with spiritual teacher David Strickel, this episode reframes low vibration—not as failure, but as the entry point to real transformation. If you've been trying to “stay positive” your way out of discomfort, suppress your shadow, or force your way into alignment, what you'll hear today may just save you years of spiritual wheel-spinning.What You'll Learn in This Episode • Why ‘High Vibes Only' Actually Blocks Spiritual Growth Will breaks down how bypassing your shadow stalls true spiritual awakening and stops manifestation at the root. • The Spiral, Not the Ladder Your awakening doesn't ascend in a straight line. It winds up, down, and inward. Understanding this model can instantly remove years of self-judgment. • The Hidden Beliefs That Sabotage Manifestation Most people don't manifest because they're sending a signal of need, not alignment. Will exposes how fear masquerades as desire, and shuts the door on abundance. • Detuning vs Letting Go David Strickel's groundbreaking concept of detuning shows you how to dissolve emotional charge without bypassing, sugarcoating, or faking forgiveness. • Why Low Vibration Is Not a Problem—It's a Message Fear, grief, anger, anxiety...these aren't spiritual failures. They're invitations to examine the subconscious patterns shaping your reality.The Three-Step Framework for Real Integration A grounded, practical method to use immediately...no woo-only fluff, no 90-day shadow-bootcamps necessary:Recognize When You're “Down the Spiral” Stop mislabeling discomfort as failure; start seeing it as a signal.Go Into the Basement Your subconscious has boxes you've never opened. Will guides you through how to begin...safely, intentionally, and without overwhelm.Detune Through Appreciation Not toxic positivity. Not forced affirmations. Appreciation is the only emotional state that dissolves resistance without repression.Why This Episode Matters Right Now Spiritual seekers are burned out on polished, performative modern spirituality that denies half the human experience. This episode offers a grounded alternative, one rooted in intuition development, emotional honesty, and the true mechanics behind manifestation. If you've ever wondered:Why does my shadow keep resurfacing?Why does manifestation work one week and collapse the next?Why do positive thoughts feel like a band-aid instead of transformation?Why do I feel worse the more I try to “stay high vibe”?…then what Will shares here will land like a breakthrough.Perfect For Listeners Interested In:Spiritual AwakeningManifestation (minus the clichés)Intuition DevelopmentEnergy Healing & Emotional RegulationShadow Work that Actually WorksSoul Purpose & Consciousness ExplorationModern Spirituality Without BypassingLife After Death Concepts & Higher Perspective ThinkingNear-Death Experience-inspired frameworksSpirit Guides & Inner Dialogue with the ShadowsIf This Episode Hit Hard… Share it with someone who's tired of performative positivity and ready for real transformation.

Our inner critic can be our own worst enemy. Knowing where that voice comes from and if what it's saying is actually true can mean the difference between your happiness and your sanity - hopefully you get to keep both!

In this episode, my guest is Dr. Victor Carrión, M.D., the Vice-Chair of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Stanford School of Medicine and a world expert on the understanding and treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in children, adolescents, and adults. We explain why, as children, we are particularly vulnerable to PTSD and how stress and trauma affect the developing brain. We also discuss how PTSD is related to attention-deficient hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and vice versa. Dr. Carrión shares effective therapeutic interventions for PTSD, including cue-centered therapy (CCT) and how to create a custom “toolbox” to help you identify triggers and manage stress. We discuss an emerging curriculum that combines yoga and mindfulness to help people with PTSD improve their stress resilience, mood, and sleep. The episode will provide listeners of all ages with a clear understanding of PTSD and effective strategies to heal from it. Access the full show notes for this episode at hubermanlab.com.
