HOT TAKE!!! You NEED to Stop Over-Identifying with Your Thoughts


Listen Later

Your brain is loud—but it’s not always right. We all have that inner narrator that loves to run wild, turning every thought into a fact and every worry into a prophecy. But here’s the truth: not every thought deserves your energy.

In this episode, we’re getting honest (and a little spicy) about what happens when you overidentify with your thoughts—when you treat them as truth, identity, or destiny—and how to stop letting your mental chatter run the show.

If you’ve been spiraling in overthinking, anxiety, or constant self-criticism, this episode will help you separate yourself from the noise and start reclaiming your peace.

💬 In this episode:

  • What it really means to overidentify with your thoughts
  • Why your brain lies to you (and thinks it’s helping)
  • How overidentification feeds anxiety, self-doubt, and emotional chaos
  • Practical ways to stop giving your thoughts all the power
  • The mindset shift that will help you find calm without control

✨ You’ll walk away with:

  • A spicy reality check about how your brain actually works
  • Tools to notice your thoughts without becoming them
  • Permission to stop arguing with every intrusive thought
  • A reminder that your thoughts aren’t facts—they’re just noise
