If you’ve ever caught yourself thinking, *I always screw things up*, *relationships never work out for me*, or *this is just how I am* - your brain may have quietly promoted a few old conclusions to “fact” without asking your permission.
Rude.
In this episode, Carole digs into how that happens.
Through a simple roast-pan story, a silent scorekeeper, and a few very human examples, we look at how beliefs get handed down, picked up, repeated, and built from our own experiences.
A mistake becomes a pattern.
A pattern becomes a belief.
And before long, that belief is sitting at the top of the mental junk drawer, ready to weigh in on your next decision like it owns the place.
We’ll also look at why some beliefs stick around long after the circumstances that created them are gone, and why that doesn’t automatically make them bad, stupid, or wrong.
Sometimes they simply outlive their purpose.
By the end, you may start looking at a few of your so-called “facts” a little differently.
