Podfest Recaps That Lead To Brain Shifts

I had the opportunity to be a speaker at Podfest, specifically at a one day conference event called Christian Creators 360.

It was a blast. I’m going to share a recap of what I spoke about and THEN share the incredible recaps I received attending workshops. The BEST part of Podfest was networking with so many incredible creators. I highly recommend you attend next year. I’d love to connect!

My recap was about 3 top root belief systems? that cause overthinking and stress in the brain that people do not know how to release. I’ll share below:

Belief # 1: I have to get it right. When I work with clients, I have them say this aloud. Usually, a fear or pressure happens within the body system. This helps them know that this is a root belief system that needs to be shifted.

I have to get it right triggers perfection and performance in the brain, most often that has happened as a family belief system based on past negative events. Then, negative experiences that happen as an individual just add layers to the pain of this system. Yes, beliefs are not just thoughts as it gets rooted in the whole body system.

Belief # 2: I am enough. This belief? drives someone to continue to please others, not set boundaries, or have to go back on their word when the realization that the schedule is overbooked happens over and over again. I am enough hits a core belief that there is something wrong with the person and no matter measuring up is out of the equation.

Belief # 3: I can live carefree. This belief was foreign to me and it caused cognitive dissonance in my brain as I went through cognitive release mapping and work myself in this belief system. I had to identify the beliefs that made me think that I could not live carefree. That is, I equated carefree with the belief that I would be careless and irresponsible. When one lives carefree, the drive to perform, be perfect, overthink, or constantly try to figure it out subsides and the brain is free to be more creative, childlike, and free.
