As women and mothers, we are beating ourselves up way too much and way too often and the reason that is happening is that we create stories and we have these beliefs about how life should be or how you should be doing this or not doing that or how nothing ever goes right and you are failing in so many areas of your life and parenting. Ever felt that way? That is why I did this episode because this week, I realized just how many of us are doing this. Our life experiences and thinking shape the way we see and interact with the world around us. From the moment we are born, we begin to form beliefs and perceptions based on our experiences, interactions, and environment.

Our stories and beliefs can have a powerful impact on our lives. They shape the way we see ourselves and our potential, as well as our attitudes toward others and the world around us. However, just because we think something doesn't mean that it is true.  

Negative thinking is a common problem that many people struggle with and the truth is most people were never taught that they can question their thoughts. It's important to understand that your beliefs and stories are not set in stone and more than likely many of them are simply not true.
