On your host, Trish Blackwell, internationally recognized confidence coach, best-selling author, and founder of the College of Confidence, the most encouraging place on the internet.

I teach go getters in life, how to take their thoughts captive, how to step out of the shadows of self-doubt, and how to courageously step into their purpose with confidence.

It's time to pump our confidence muscles and train our thoughts y'all. Let's get started.

Hey guys, it's Trish Blackwell, and you're listening to The Confidence Podcast episode 556. I'm so glad you're here today.

Today we're going to talk about one of the core core super power tools of all things personal growth, and truly I believe the core to training your brain, and that is the art of reframing.

And the art of reframing is the starting point, the core central launch pad of how to have a better conversation with yourself, how to improve your inner self-talk, how to change that inner voice, that inner dialogue, the one that wants to dwell in negativity, to be frustrated, to have self-pity, because believe it, or not like it's going to happen all the time.

Even when you become the version of your self that you're aspiring to be, you get that raise, you have the amazing relationship you create this truly massive change in your life.

You're still going to have a human brain, and it's still going to have lots of things in life that go well, and lots of things that don't go according to plan.

And you're going to have to manage your mind around that so that you don't get pulled into the negativity pulled into the gossip that's around you pulled into the dramatization that we can often have about the things that are happening around us, or the overwhelm of our day that we've over scheduled for ourselves.

This is truly the reframing podcast episode that I think is going to be a core episode to listen to, so I'm going to suggest that you save the episode that you share it with a friend.

I realized that it is one of the probably the most frequent things that I coach my students on in the College of Confidence, my clients on, I teach a journaling process centered around this.

There's so many ways we're going to talk today about the ways to reframe and how to reframe, but I have not yet done a podcast on the reframing. So here we are.

Here we are. And I want to apologize last week was a phenomenal episode, episode 55 on money confidence. Now, it has been brought to my attention that they're midway through.

There were a couple parts of the audio that skipped and had a little little bit of a jump and hiccup. And I want to apologize. I always do my best to bring you the ultimate sound quality.

And I had recorded this episode, actually, and it was, y'all, I killed it. It was great. And I listened and this and I, there were a couple spots and I had the time margin to go, I need to redo this.

And so I'm helping that this second recording through that there's something that I'm going to say now that I didn't say that that that that you needed to hear.

That's my belief because and by the way, that's a reframe. I was not pleased because I to record this episode or the other day when I did it, I said no to walking my dog.

I had to bribe my kids to stay quiet. I had to really like squeeze it into the margin and I was so I was loving the content.

And to find that the audio wasn't up to par that I needed to redo it, I felt I was frustrated. I was bummed. I was like, oh, come on. You know, why is this happening? The normal reaction.

And this is why reframing is everything. I gave myself the time to say it's only going to be better. I had to ask myself, what is the story that I want to tell myself?

That's going to make me feel powerful. As Joyce Meyer says, you could be pitiful or you can be powerful, but you cannot be both.
