About this listen

Ever feel like your brain’s stuck printing “I’ll never get this” on repeat? Join us as we tackle a raw listener story about self-doubt, coding meltdowns, and mint chocolate chip ice cream therapy. Discover why your brain’s “Faulty Pattern Printer” hijacks setbacks (like failed algebra or Spanish mishaps) into full-blown “I’m defective” narratives—and how to reframe them. We’ll unpack practical tools like the “But/And” Hack, third-person pep talks, and a free Cognitive Loop Decoder to silence that inner critic. Spoiler: Progress isn’t about perfection—it’s about showing up, wrong notes and all. New to the podcast? This episode’s your ice-breaker. 🎧✨
