Episode 3462: Jill Coleman explores how the labels we give ourselves, such as “I’m a food addict” or “I could never do that,” can become self-fulfilling prophecies that limit growth and change. By questioning old beliefs and embracing a more fluid self-concept, she shows how challenging long-held assumptions can lead to greater freedom, confidence, and a more liberated life. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://jillfit.com/2016/01/27/self-concept/ Quotes to ponder: "Self-concept is fluid. You can change it anytime, so long as you believe you can." "Life is too short to stress about every morsel of food that passes your lips. No thanks!" "You don’t have to change anything yet, but just … notice." Learn more about your ad choices.
