Our brains don’t like mystery or ambiguity, and they are really, really good at filling in the blanks. Unfortunately, this can wreak havoc on our mental and emotional well-being, as well as negatively impact our relationships. In today’s episode, I share more about how this shows up in my own life, as well as simple ways you can start filling in the blanks with more fact than fiction (no more unnecessary mad libs of the mind)!

If you find yourself nodding along with this episode and resonating with filling in the blanks with fact over fiction most of the time, or you’re feeling emotionally tapped out and overwhelmed, I’m excited to bring you the Good Movement Collective. You can check out the link in the show notes below to learn more about this and join the waitlist, so you’ll be the first in line to know when the doors are officially open!

 

In this episode, we cover:

• How I start filling in the blanks and stressing myself out, even though I don’t have the full story from the other person
• The elaborate (and scary) story I weaved regarding a conversation I needed to have with a friend + how it played out
•  Simple ways you can start filling in the blanks with more fact than fiction
