About this listen

 What if your feelings aren't real? What if every emotion you've ever felt—joy, anger, sadness—wasn't something that happened to you, but a story your brain invented on the spot?

In this episode, we are dismantling the biggest myth about your mental health: that you are a hostage to your own emotions. We'll dive deep into the revolutionary neuroscience that reveals your brain is a prediction machine, creating emotional stories based on past experiences and present sensations. You are not just a character in this story; you have the power to be the author.

We'll expose how this ancient survival system works and give you the tools to take control. This is about more than just managing your feelings; it's about fundamentally changing how you experience them. It's about taking personal responsibility for your emotional life.

Stick with us to the very end for the one simple, two-part question you can ask yourself to interrupt a negative emotional story and rewrite the ending in real-time.

It's time to fire the narrator in your head and take the pen yourself. Subscribe, share this with anyone who's ever felt overwhelmed by their feelings, and join the conversation about becoming the author of your own emotional life.
