Is It True… or Are You Just Not Sure Yet?

Ever struggled with knowing if a thought is really true—or just something your mind wants to believe?

In this revealing episode, Todd dives into one of the most commonly misunderstood aspects of self-inquiry: what to do when you can't confidently answer "Is it true?" with a full yes or no. If you've ever been stuck in the gray zone of 90% yes and 10% doubt, this conversation is for you.

Why this matters to you:

We often seek clarity and certainty in our healing and growth journeys. But the uncomfortable middle—where things feel uncertain—is where some of the deepest transformation happens. This episode is your guide to navigating that liminal space with honesty, curiosity, and self-compassion.

Here’s what you’ll walk away with:

  1. A deeper understanding of why not knowing can actually be the most powerful place to start.

  2. Insight into how the ego subtly tries to bypass discomfort by reaching for "the right answer" too quickly.

  3. Tools for staying with the inquiry process honestly—even when it's messy—so you can reach a more authentic truth.

 

Listen now to discover how sitting in the unknown can open the door to true inner clarity and transformation.
