Summary
Today we're going to chat about the quiet stories you tell yourself—and how they shape your vibration, whether you realize it or not.
I'm sharing a real-life example of a mindset that was limiting me and what happened when I questioned it.
Tune in for a fresh perspective on how shifting just one practiced thought can unlock ease, energy, and new possibilities.
And if this is something you're ready to explore more deeply, I have a powerful 31-day series that can help.
It's called 31 Days of LoA: Letting Go—and it's all about releasing the energy of control, tension, overthinking, fear... all the stuff that clouds your vibration and keeps you in those old stories.

| 0:35.2 | Today we're going to chat about the quiet stories you tell yourself and how they |
| 0:40.6 | shape your vibration whether you realize it or not. I'm sharing a real life example of a mindset that |
| 0:48.7 | was limiting me and what happened when I questioned it. Tune in for a fresh perspective on how shifting just one practice thought |
| 0:59.2 | can unlock ease, energy, and new possibilities. |
| 1:20.1 | Hi there. Welcome back to L.O.A. Coffee chats, where we explore energy, mindset, and manifestation in a way that's practical, personal, and grounded in real life. Today, we're going to chat about something sneaky and powerful, |
| 1:32.5 | the story you tell yourself, not just once in a while, but constantly in the background about what's |
| 1:41.1 | possible, about who you are, about what's just how life is. And I want to start by telling |
| 1:48.5 | you a quick story about me. Years ago, I had a business idea. I was excited about. It felt aligned, |
| 1:57.9 | playful, creative. But as I sat down to map it out, I started to feel this low-level |
| 2:05.0 | drag, not full-on resistance, just a kind of heaviness. And it didn't make sense. I wanted to do it. |
| 2:14.7 | So why did it feel hard? Well, I figured it out on a walk, of course, |
| 2:20.9 | because walks are magic. I realized I had a story running in the background. One, I hadn't |
| 2:29.4 | consciously chosen, and it went like this. If I do this, I'll have to show up constantly to keep it going. |
| 2:38.6 | If it works, I'll be stuck in it. If I make this part of my business, I'll lose my freedom. Boom. |
| 2:46.2 | You know, there it was. A mindset that said success equals sacrifice, that good things come at the cost of my |
| 2:56.7 | ease and energy. And no wonder I felt a drag. You know, that story, it didn't match who I wanted to be |
| 3:04.8 | or how I wanted to feel. But here's the thing. I believed it, |
| 3:10.6 | not because it was true, but because I hadn't paused long enough to question it. |
| 3:17.2 | And that's the thing about mindset. It's the lens you're looking through. And when the lens is |
| 3:23.9 | foggy, even the most aligned desire can start to feel off. |
| 3:30.8 | So let me ask you this. |
