Mind To Soul Podcast

Self-care isn’t just what we do when we’re exhausted—it’s how we relate to ourselves every day. At its core, self-care is a boundary. It’s the quiet decision to notice what you need, honor your limits, and respond with intention rather than neglect.

In this series, How Am I Self-Caring?, we explore self-care as an internal practice—not a checklist or a trend, but a relationship with yourself. Are you listening to your body’s signals? Respecting your emotional capacity? Allowing rest without guilt? Speaking to yourself with compassion instead of pressure?

Healthy self-boundaries ask one simple, powerful question: What do I need right now—and am I willing to give it to myself?
This series invites you to pause, reflect, and gently redefine self-care as an act of self-respect, safety, and sustainability.

Welcome back to Mind to Soul, where your thought will meet transformation. I'm happy to have you back here. I'm so grateful you've decided to share time and space with me. . Today we'll be talking about a very important topic. It's what sits at the heart of who we are. I'm talking about self-care, self boundaries and self-advocacy.

This podcast is going to be divided into three different sessions. I will start with self-care, and then the next two sessions we'll talk about self boundaries and self-advocacy. We'll be exploring something that sits at the core of every healthy, grounded, and fulfilled human being, the power of self, specifically self-care, self boundary, and self-advocacy . These three are like the leg of the tripod when one is missing our inner balance wobbles. When all three are in harmony, we move throughout life with strength, peace, and purpose. 

The title of this podcast is Deconditioning  self, journey  to becoming whole. The need and the process of deconditioning from old self.  A lot of us are showing up as who we have learned to be, not who we are, at the core, our authenticity We're showing up as who we were taught to show up as , who we have learned to show up as  and who we've been conditioned to show up.

 Before we become, we must first unlearn who we were told to be. So sit back and give me some of your time today,  be aware and be ready for the process of  deconditioning where you learn to be in charge of yourself,  where you learn the ability to properly master yourself. 

We're going to be identifying what our behaviors are doing. Let's be honest. We  all having moments where we ask ourselves, why did I do that again? Maybe it's reacting  unkindly to someone or something. Maybe it's procrastinating on something or reaching for comfort when we really need clarity.

So why do we act against our own best interest? Why do we do certain behaviors and repeat them over and over again, even though we know they're not good for us? They're not the best for us. Today's episode, we're gonna explore and understand the gap between knowing and doing and how to bridge that gap by the end of this episode.

Each of us has a default emotional setting. It is the emotion. We are predisposed to, the one we're slip into the most, sometimes even without noticing.  Today, we will be uncovering what that means, why it happens, and most importantly, how to recognize it in yourself because when you know your default emotion, you gain power, the power to walk with it rather than let it control you.

Welcome to this episode, where we’re diving into the power of rewiring our thoughts.

When we begin to track our thoughts—really become aware of them—we start to see how they shape everything:
How we show up, how we interact with others, how we view the world around us.

Our thoughts don’t just stay in our minds—they influence our actions, our relationships, and even our identity.

If that’s true—and it is—then it’s vital that we learn to rewire. That means letting go of old patterns, outdated mental habits that may have served us in the past but no longer support who we’re becoming.

This episode is all about that process.
 I’ll be sharing a few simple, practical things you can do to begin rewiring your thinking.
 They’re not hard to do—but they do require commitment.

Let’s get into it.

 
 What is self-awareness? What is it? For every time you've heard the word self-awareness, what pops into your head? I think from just experiences and interaction with many people, which I've gotten an opportunity to do every day more than most. I realize that self-awareness has become so overused.

Self-awareness is more than just knowing what you like or you dislike. 'cause a lot of the time when you hear self-awareness, you're hearing, what is it I like? What is it I don't like? It's more than that. It's ability to observe yourself, your thoughts, your emotions, your habit, your triggers, your trauma.
