If we have the capacity to rewire our brains and become new versions of ourselves… why is it so hard to believe in our own magic and greatness?

In this episode, I dive into the neuroscience and psychology behind why we don’t believe in ourselves. I explore how our limiting beliefs are actually physical neural pathways built through years of repetition, how we absorbed beliefs about ourselves during childhood (ages 0-7) when our brains were in a highly suggestible theta state, and why these beliefs feel like unchangeable facts about who we are.

In this video, you’ll learn:

• How beliefs become hardwired neural pathways in your brain

• Why childhood programming shapes your self-concept (and it’s not your fault)

• How your RAS (reticular activating system) filters reality through your beliefs

• The role of confirmation bias and self-fulfilling prophecies in keeping you stuck

• Why social media comparison triggers our fight-or-flight response

• How to start questioning the “I’m not” statements that limit your potential

This week’s challenge: Notice every “I’m not” statement you think or say. Pause and ask: “Is this actually true, or is this just a belief I’ve been taught?” Then ask yourself where you first learned this belief.

Remember: You are NOT a fixed, finished product. You are a work in progress with unlimited potential. The stories you’ve been telling yourself about your limitations were never yours to begin with.

NEXT WEEK: How to love yourself as you work on changing these deep-rooted beliefs (without shame or guilt!)
