#40 - How to Identify and Overcome Your Self-Limiting Beliefs
In this episode, we're talking about self-limiting beliefs. What are they? How do they impact our lives? And how can we overcome them? Self-limiting beliefs are the thoughts and ideas we have about ourselves that hold us back from achieving our goals. They can be about our abilities, our worth, or our potential. For example, we might believe that we're not smart enough, not good enough, or not worthy of love. These beliefs can have a profound impact on our lives. They can prevent us from taking risks, trying new things, or pursuing our dreams. They can also lead to anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem.

This episode is a juicy one, all about the pain body. The pain body is our negative state and is what we are feeling when we are in a low mood, unhappy and self-sabotaging.
