Have you ever had a feeling so strong it completely hijacked your day?
Maybe it was anxiety that felt like a warning siren.
Or shame that felt like proof something was wrong with you.
Or fear that seemed to confirm the worst-case scenario was about to happen.
It’s easy to assume that the stronger the emotion, the more real or true the thought behind it must be.
But what if that’s a misunderstanding?
In this audio, I explore a powerful shift in perspective: That strong feelings often don’t confirm truth—they simply reflect how much we’re believing the mind’s story.
Through real client examples—anxiety about being sick in public, fear of making mistakes, long-held beliefs of not being good enough—we explore what’s really going on underneath those intense emotions.
And we begin to see a new possibility:
✨ That these feelings are not proof of danger or unworthiness...They’re invitations to wake up. To question the story. To see what’s actually true right now.
