Whenever something good happens my first reaction is surprise and excitement.  But almost immediately after, my inner monologue chimes in and starts spreading lies.  It doesn’t have to be that way and today we’ll explore why the voice exists and what you can do to make it shut up.  On this episode we discuss:

• The book that I recommend to so many people
• What is something you keep putting off?
• The Inner Roommate
• How the past informs our inner voice
• Why safety is at odds with what’s best for us
• Being response-able
• The four things you can do to shut the voice up
• Increase your awareness
• Turning down the volume
• Call B.S. when necessary
• Being compassionate to yourself
