Running to Myself

Episode 92 What Else Is Also True?

Listen Later

What happens when a hard feeling shows up?

For many of us, the answer is immediate: we give it center stage.

We assume the heaviness means something is wrong.
We let anxiety narrate the day.
We start building stories around a feeling before we’ve even stopped to examine what’s actually happening.

In this episode of Running to Myself, Trish shares a simple but surprisingly powerful experience from her own life: waking up under the weight of hard circumstances, sitting down to journal the heaviness… and instead being led to first capture the beauty from the day before.

What happened next shifted everything.

This episode is not about toxic positivity or pretending hard things don’t exist.

It’s about learning to recognize that a difficult feeling may be true… without becoming the only truth.

Inside this episode:

  • Why not every uncomfortable feeling is a five-alarm fire
  • The difference between emotional awareness and emotional spiraling
  • How the stories we attach to our feelings shape our experience
  • The powerful concept of becoming the gatekeeper of your thoughts
  • A simple 4-question framework you can use when hard emotions show up
  • The difference between a Big P Problem and a small p problem
  • Why “What else is also true?” can change everything

    • If you’ve ever felt at the mercy of your own mind…
    If one hard feeling can seem to hijack your whole day…
    If you’re ready to create more awareness, more choice, and more peace in your thinking…

    This episode is for you.
