Modern Body Modern Life

The Voice in Your Head isn't Always the Real YOU.


Listen Later

I’m sharing a very real, behind-the-scenes look at what this work actually looks like in everyday life...especially during stressful moments, emotional situations, and unexpected circumstances. 

I am giving you a peek into my mind, and going into detail with the thoughts that are offered up to me during a very stressful 24 hours.

Thoughts that sounded completely reasonable in the moment.

“You deserve this.”
 “It’s been a hard day.”
 “It doesn’t matter today.”
 “You should just take the day off.”

And what I want to show you in this episode is how often those thoughts are simply your primitive brain trying to pull you toward comfort, pleasure, and immediate relief.

Not because something has gone wrong… but because that’s what the brain does.

This episode is really about learning how to separate yourself from those thoughts so you can stop reacting automatically and start making choices from the version of you you actually want to become.

I walk you through real examples of what this looks like in the moment, from food decisions to movement to emotional stress...and how I navigate those conversations internally without shame, perfectionism, or feeling deprived.

Because the goal isn’t to never have urges, cravings, or self-sabotaging thoughts.

The goal is to stop believing every thought you think.

Enjoy!  Courtney
