The way you talk to yourself matters. In this episode, Lucy is joined by Philippa Saunders to explore the language of your thoughts — how the words you use in your head shape how you feel, what you believe, and what you think you're capable of.

So often, we assume the voice in our head is telling us the truth—but what if it’s not? What if the stories we repeat daily are actually holding us back? One of the most powerful shifts you can make is learning to challenge your own thoughts.

Together, Lucy and Philippa explore:

• Why language matters more than we realise
• How to notice patterns in your thinking and spot unhelpful self-talk
• The role of limiting beliefs in shaping emotions and behaviour
• How to start choosing better-feeling thoughts—on purpose
• The small but powerful ways you can rewrite the mental script you're living by

You’ll also hear some of Philippa’s favourite mindset-shifting phrases that she uses again and again with clients, including:

• “Thoughts are not facts.”
• “Where’s the evidence for that?”
• “What if it all works out?”
• “It doesn’t matter if [x] happens, I’ll cope.”
• “Is that helpful?”
• And how swapping ‘should’ for ‘could’ makes you feel a whole lot better about yourself! 

This is an empowering listen for anyone who’s ready to take a more active role in how they think, feel, and show up each day. Because when you change the story in your head, everything else starts to shift too.
