151. Why You Don't Have to Believe Everything You Think
Podcast:Leadership Parenting- Resilient Moms Raise Resilient Kids Published On: Wed Jun 17 2026 Description: Send us Fan MailIn this episode, I walk you through where negative thoughts actually come from, why your body reacts to a scary thought as if it's really happening, and why trying to force them out only makes them louder. We look at the difference between a fact and a thought that distorts that fact toward the negative, and I give you a set of questions you can run any thought through to decide whether it deserves your attention. This is the foundation underneath so much of the work we've done since, and even if you heard it when it first came out, I have a feeling it will meet you somewhere new this time. (This is an encore episode that will help remind you how to work with your thoughts!)If you'd like to get the show notes for this episode, head to: https://leighgermann.com
