Your Yes Filled Life

You Didn’t Miss It. You Overrode It #259


Listen Later

Have you ever looked back on a situation and thought:

👉 “I knew it.”

You knew the conversation felt off.
You knew the red flag was there.
You knew you didn’t really want to say yes.
Or maybe you knew something was deeply aligned for you… and talked yourself out of that, too.

In this episode, Brenda explores the subtle but powerful pattern of self-override — especially in emotionally intelligent, empathic people who have learned to disconnect from themselves faster than they listen.

This episode dives into:

  • why highly intuitive people still second-guess themselves
  • the difference between intuition and overthinking
  • how empathy can override discernment
  • why boundaries feel hard before the boundary is ever needed
  • the hidden ways self-trust erodes over time
  • why awareness alone doesn’t create change
  • how to begin rebuilding self-trust in small, real-life moments
  • Brenda also shares personal stories about:

    • identity shifts
    • health advocacy
    • overthinking vs action
    • body awareness
    • learning to stop rationalizing discomfort
    • If you’ve ever felt stuck in loops of:

      • replaying conversations
      • overthinking decisions
      • ignoring your own discomfort
      • or doubting your intuition…
      • this episode will help you understand why.

        ✨ Because you probably didn’t miss it.
        You felt it.
        You just learned to override yourself.
