We often push through our days without stopping to question the stories running through our minds, but what if those seemingly small thoughts are pointing to something much deeper? In this episode, I'm sharing why learning to notice your thoughts and getting curious about what's underneath them can change the way you move through your life. The next version of you is possible, and creating the life you want sometimes starts with uncovering the beliefs you've been holding onto so you can finally let them go. Here’s what I cover: A recent thought that led me to uncover the deeper fears and beliefs hiding underneath How somatic work helps reach the thoughts that can’t be accessed by cognitive behavior therapy alone How reflecting on a 12-year cycle inspired me to let go of old patterns and cultivate new energy Why you can choose what you believe on purpose and how that can transform your life How my upcoming free workshop will help you find the conscious and subconscious beliefs quietly running the show Reserve your seat for Sara’s next workshop: sarafisk.coach/voice Find Sara here: sarafisk.coach pages.sarafisk.coach/difficultconversations instagram.com/sarafiskcoach facebook.com/SaraFiskCoaching tiktok.com/@sarafiskcoach youtube.com/@sarafiskcoaching1333 ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-ex-good-girl-podcast-6037423/episodes/episode-172-are-your-thoughts-keeping-you-stuck/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-ex-good-girl-podcast-6037423/episode-172-are-your-thoughts-keeping-you-stuck.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
