Positive thinking is powerful — but it’s not magic, and it isn’t a moral test.

In a recent conversation with Cori Sartori, we talked about visualization, affirmations, and belief — and how those tools played a meaningful role in her pregnancy story. Her experience mattered. And it worked.

But there’s another side of that conversation we don’t talk about enough.

In this episode, I share what happened when I did everything “right” — the affirmations, the visualization, the positive mindset — and still lost a pregnancy. We talk about why positive thinking must be grounded in truth, how mindset culture can quietly turn into self-blame, and why negative thoughts don’t cause tragedy.

This isn’t an episode against hope, belief, or personal growth. It’s about understanding the laws of life honestly — what we influence, what we don’t, and how to hold hope without turning it into a verdict on our worth or faith.

If you’ve ever wondered what you’re allowed to believe when life doesn’t cooperate — this conversation is for you.
