<v Speaker 1>me too, But guess what. We're about to rewrite that

7
00:00:20.280 --> 00:00:24.160
<v Speaker 1>script because honestly, who needs toxic thoughts dragging you down

8
00:00:24.199 --> 00:00:26.559
<v Speaker 1>when there's a whole world out there waiting to be conquered.

9
00:00:27.199 --> 00:00:30.559
<v Speaker 1>So buckle up because this ain't your grandma's self help podcast.

10
00:00:31.280 --> 00:00:34.479
<v Speaker 1>We're talking real talk, gen Z style. If you're tired

11
00:00:34.479 --> 00:00:36.880
<v Speaker 1>of being your own worst enemy, ready to ditch the

12
00:00:36.920 --> 00:00:40.200
<v Speaker 1>negativity and unleash your inner badass, then keep it locked.

13
00:00:40.840 --> 00:00:43.479
<v Speaker 1>Here's the low down on five strategies to silence that

14
00:00:43.520 --> 00:00:47.960
<v Speaker 1>inner critic. One recognize the BS. First things First, dude,

15
00:00:48.240 --> 00:00:50.320
<v Speaker 1>learn to spot those negative thoughts for what they are.

16
00:00:50.359 --> 00:00:53.359
<v Speaker 1>A bunch of bulsh They're like those annoying pop up

17
00:00:53.399 --> 00:00:56.240
<v Speaker 1>ads you can't seem to escape. Just because your brain

18
00:00:56.280 --> 00:00:58.479
<v Speaker 1>throws them at you doesn't mean you gotta believe every

19
00:00:58.520 --> 00:01:01.840
<v Speaker 1>single thing it says. Think of it like this. Would

20
00:01:01.840 --> 00:01:03.960
<v Speaker 1>you trust a stranger on the internet who tells you

21
00:01:03.960 --> 00:01:07.640
<v Speaker 1>your outfit is ugly? Probably not right? So why give

22
00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:10.359
<v Speaker 1>more weight to those thoughts coming from your own head? Sometimes?

23
00:01:11.079 --> 00:01:15.239
<v Speaker 1>Two challenge the narrative. Once you've identified those negative thought patterns,

24
00:01:15.439 --> 00:01:17.840
<v Speaker 1>it's time to put on your detective hat and start digging.

25
00:01:18.560 --> 00:01:22.319
<v Speaker 1>Ask yourself, is this thought really true, what evidence supports it?

26
00:01:22.519 --> 00:01:25.680
<v Speaker 1>Or is it just a fear based assumption? Remember facts

27
00:01:25.719 --> 00:01:28.680
<v Speaker 1>over feelings, fam You got to back up those thoughts

28
00:01:28.680 --> 00:01:32.280
<v Speaker 1>with something solid, not just gut reactions. Are past experiences

29
00:01:32.280 --> 00:01:36.439
<v Speaker 1>that might be totally irrelevant now. Three reframe the situation

30
00:01:36.840 --> 00:01:40.000
<v Speaker 1>now for the real magic. Reframing. It's like turning a

31
00:01:40.079 --> 00:01:43.680
<v Speaker 1>negative into a positive, but way cooler. Instead of I

32
00:01:43.799 --> 00:01:47.280
<v Speaker 1>messed up, try I learned from that mistake. Instead of

33
00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:50.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm not good enough, think I'm constantly growing and evolving.

34
00:01:51.319 --> 00:01:54.000
<v Speaker 1>You got to switch your perspective focus on the lessons

35
00:01:54.079 --> 00:01:58.239
<v Speaker 1>learned and the potential for growth. Four practice self compassion.

36
00:01:58.480 --> 00:02:02.200
<v Speaker 1>Listen up, you beautiful creature. Be kind to yourselves. We

37
00:02:02.280 --> 00:02:05.400
<v Speaker 1>all make mistakes, we all have bad days. It's part

38
00:02:05.400 --> 00:02:08.400
<v Speaker 1>of being human. Instead of beating yourself up over every

39
00:02:08.400 --> 00:02:11.719
<v Speaker 1>little thing, give yourself a break. Treat yourself with the

40
00:02:11.759 --> 00:02:15.520
<v Speaker 1>same love and understanding you would offer your best friend. Five.

41

46
00:02:34.840 --> 00:02:38.400
<v Speaker 1>that motivation flowing. Now for the real tea, I'm going

54
00:03:04.560 --> 00:03:07.360

55
00:03:07.439 --> 00:03:10.520
<v Speaker 1>voices whispering you can't do this, but she chose to

56
00:03:10.520 --> 00:03:14.919
<v Speaker 1>fight back. She silenced the negativity with action, determination, and
