Discover how the voice inside your head can be your biggest cheerleader or your worst critic. This episode of Pockets of Time is a deeply personal journey into my experiences with self-talk, revealing how the words we tell ourselves can shape our paths and determine our success. Listen to my own story of how I almost allowed negative self-talk to sabotage the start of this podcast, and how the influences of our environment and the people around us can fuel this inner dialogue. This exploration invites you to become aware of your own internal narratives, recognizing when you are too harsh on yourself, and providing tools to replace negativity with kindness and compassion.
Have you ever considered the power of journaling and positive affirmations? We delve into this in the second part of our episode, emphasizing that the energy and tone we use with ourselves can be as powerful as the words themselves.

More crucially, we illuminate the practice of gratitude and its transformative capacity in shifting focus away from negative events and thoughts. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking insights and tools for personal growth, and a gentler, kinder relationship with themselves.
