In this episode, I sit down with Mitch Weisburgh to explore how to master your mind, shift from fear and stress to creativity and resilience, and activate your inner self-commander. Mitch shares practical strategies to calm your reactive brain, access your “sage mind,” and use small intentional steps to turn challenges into growth opportunities.

Key Takeaways:

✅ The Self-Commander:

Self-Awareness & Pause – Notice emotional reactions before they take control.

Positive Self-Check – Ask empowering questions to shift perspective.

Mindful Action – Use breathwork or reflection to calm the mind and respond with clarity.

✅ Sage Mind vs. Limbic Mind:

Sage Mind – Creative, resourceful, empathetic, and critical-thinking.

Limbic Mind – Reactive, fear-driven, survival-focused, and limiting

.✅ Spotting Self-SabotageRecognize your inner saboteurs and gently redirect toward empowerment and intentional action.

✅ Fear & Stress as FuelReframe fear as eustress (positive stress) and use it as motivation for growth. Learn to distinguish helpful fear from fear manipulated by external pressures.

Mitch’s insights remind us that by practicing self-awareness, reframing fear, and taking mindful action, we can transform stress into resilience and step into our most creative, empowered selves.
