EPISODE DESCRIPTION:
What can a strand of hair stuck in a cut in your finger teach you about your inner dialogue? …More than you'd think. In this special episode celebrating 150 total shows, Meg Amsden joins Dallas Amsden to unpack a tiny (but painful) moment that became a profound metaphor for how we treat ourselves. This episode delivers a reminder we all need: your self-talk shapes your destiny.
IN THIS EPISODE:
- The hilarious (and humbling) story of slicing fruit and slicing fingers
- How one strand of hair sparked a soul-level reflection
- Why your subconscious believes your voice above all others
- The Bob Proctor truth bomb that reframes self-talk forever
- Four questions to shift from pain to power—starting with the inner critic
- A gentle challenge to treat yourself the way your FUTURE YOU would
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
- Pain often feels bigger when we minimize it
- Your voice is the most influential voice in your life
- Self-talk programs your subconscious with either growth or guilt
- Speaking to yourself with kindness is not weakness—it’s wisdom
- Tiny moments (like hair in a cut) can become healing metaphors
- The journey to your FUTURE YOU begins with grace in the present
