Is It Even True? How Your Thoughts Are Shaping Your Life
The Christian Life Coach Podcast, Episode 64
Most of the thoughts you think every day go completely unquestioned. And yet, those thoughts are shaping your entire life.
What Is a Thought?
A thought is simply a sentence in your mind. It’s something you say to yourself, often on repeat, until it feels true.
But not every thought you think is true.
Why Your Thoughts Matter
Your thoughts create your feelings.
Your feelings drive your actions.
Your actions create your results.
If the thought is off, everything downstream is affected.
The Real Problem
We believe our thoughts without questioning them. Thoughts like:
I don’t have time
I’m behind
I don’t do enough
These are not facts. They are sentences we’ve practiced.
A Simple Filter for Your Thoughts
Ask yourself:
Is this true?
Is this helpful?
If it’s not both, it’s not worth repeating.
Start With Awareness
You cannot renew your mind if you’re not paying attention to what you’re thinking.
Awareness is the first step.

Some of the thoughts that you hear in your head
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:40:30
every single day, on repeat,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:40:35
are. Not. True.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:40:37
And… not only are they not true,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:40:42
You are living your life as if they are.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:40:48
And that…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:40:51
is shaping everything.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:40:54
Welcome to the Christian Life Coach Podcast. I'm Shanna, your Christian life coach.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:41:00
And this is where we talk about
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:41:02
Real-life transformation through the renewing of your mind.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:41:05
If you are a Christian woman who is tired of starting over,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:41:09
Tired of beating yourself up?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:41:11
I'm tired of knowing what to do, but not actually doing it, you are in the right place.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:41:17
Here, we focus on rooting your identity in Christ,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:41:22
Renewing your thinking,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:41:24
Taking radical responsibility.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:41:27
building boring consistency, and becoming the woman who keeps her word.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:41:31
This is not about hustle, it's not about shame,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:41:35
It's about mature self-leadership,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:41:38
grounded in biblical truth.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:41:42
Welcome! I am so glad you're here.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:41:46
for this new series that I'm starting, and…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:41:51
It is called…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:41:54
The lies we believe.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:41:57
And I just want to start off by saying,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:41:59
This is going to be kind of an introductory episode.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:42:02
We are not, like,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:42:04
we're not gonna fix everything today.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:42:08
And probably not ever, to be honest.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:42:11
This is going to be…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:42:14
an ongoing work that we will do over and over and over.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:42:20
This is about waking up.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:42:23
And becoming aware.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:42:27
You want to start noticing
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:42:29
Not necessarily.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:42:32
solving.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:42:35
And honestly,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:42:37
I notice that a lot of times, just the awareness, just the noticing,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:42:44
is sometimes enough to make the change that we need to make.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:42:50
So, one… one of the core problems, and…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:42:55
Oh my goodness, I see this in coaching all the time when I other people coach, when I coaching.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:43:02
And to be honest, when I'm coaching myself, which I am doing
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:43:06
all the time.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:43:09
We are believing the things that we are thinking.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:43:13
Without questioning them.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:43:16
We are believing the thoughts that we are thinking without questioning those thoughts.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:43:23
And here are some examples. And I'll also say, some of these are…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:43:29
simple, seemingly harmless,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:43:32
thoughts that we're believing.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:43:34
And some of them are pretty significant.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:43:38
So, here are some examples.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:43:41
I don't have time.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:43:43
I'm behind. I don't do enough.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:43:45
They don't care about me.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:43:48
I can't afford it.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:43:51
And when we hear a thought like that, like any of those, and so many others,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:43:58
And we just accept it as fact.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:44:03
But it's not a fact. It's literally just a sentence.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:44:08
that is…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:44:10
in your brain.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:44:13
So it's just, like, words being typed out.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:44:17
on a keyboard that are floating in your head.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:44:19
So,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:44:21
It's just a thought.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:44:24
It's a sentence in your brain.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:44:27
And we…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:44:29
are just believing these thoughts without questioning them.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:44:32
And it's not that… that doesn't come without.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:44:36
um, impact. I wanted to say consequences, but… and sometimes it is, but it's impact, because…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:44:44
As we know, if you've listened to…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:44:48
Um, past episodes.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:44:51
We live in the creation cycle.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:44:57
are thinking, the thoughts that we think,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:45:00
generate the feelings that we experience.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:45:04
And those feelings that we experience drive our actions.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:45:10
Our actions…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:45:13
repeated over time, create the results.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:45:16
that we live with in our life.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:45:18
So, if the thought is off, if at that beginning your thought
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:45:24
is not even true.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:45:27
Then everything downstream…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:45:31
is… originated from a lie.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:45:36
It's all off.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:45:38
So,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:45:40
Let's define a thought. What is a thought?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:45:43
A thought is a sentence in your mind.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:45:47
something that you say to yourself.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:45:50
Often, these thoughts are on repeat in our minds.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:45:54
And…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:45:57
Just because you think a thought,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:46:00
does not mean it's true.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:46:05
Every thought that you think,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:46:07
is not true.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:46:10
Or, let's say that. Not every thought that you think is true.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:46:16
How about that?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:46:19
And here's… here's an example.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:46:23
So…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:46:26
you're thinking…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:46:28
I don't have time.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:46:30
I don't have time. I don't have time. I don't have time.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:46:33
And you might feel…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:46:36
overwhelmed?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:46:38
You might feel pressure,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:46:41
You might feel depleted,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:46:46
And from any of those feelings,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:46:50
You…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:46:51
the action that you take,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:46:53
is… procrastinating.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:46:58
spinning out in overwhelm…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:47:01
Maybe listing out, thinking about all of the things that need to be done, and all of the reasons that you don't have time.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:47:11
you might…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:47:14
avoid getting things done by scrolling
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:47:18
by Netflixing.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:47:22
And your result is…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:47:24
things don't get done.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:47:26
Which means…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:47:28
You didn't make the time, and you don't have time because you're not making the time.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:47:33
And you're not doing the things.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:47:36
And then, you end up having more to do,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:47:40
And less time. So, telling yourself, I don't have time,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:47:44
Feeling overwhelmed.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:47:46
You don't do the things that you want to be doing.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:47:48
And you do the things that are wasting time,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:47:51
And your result is…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:47:54
If you don't have time.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:47:57
And it's not that your circumstances, it's not what's actually happening that is the problem.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:48:04
It's that you're believing…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:48:07
those thoughts.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:48:09
And those thoughts are having an impact in your emotions and driving your actions.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:48:19
So it's not the circumstance. It's not what's actually happening, it's what you're believing about that circumstance.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:48:29
And here is my, like, this is kind of my… my litmus test.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:48:34
on thoughts, and I have an episode
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:48:38
that's all about this.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:48:40
When you have a thought,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:48:42
And you notice it,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:48:44
Like, I don't have time.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:48:47
You stop. You notice?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:48:49
And you ask yourself, is that even true?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:48:52
Is that true?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:48:54
that I don't have time.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:48:57
to do this thing.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:49:00
And… I mean, at that point, you can say, well, that's not even true. I actually do have time.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:49:06
And so you want to tell yourself the truth, right?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:49:10
And also, you could ask yourself, is that true?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:49:14
And maybe you decide, yeah, that is true.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:49:18
Okay. And…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:49:20
Not or, and, is this true?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:49:23
And… is it helpful?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:49:27
Is Thinking This Thought…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:49:28
Helping me to go in the direction that I want to go.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:49:32
Is this thought helping me?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:49:36
to be the person that I want to be.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:49:40
And when you're asking yourself,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:49:43
these questions, is it true? It's not. Does it feel true?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:49:48
Is it actually, factually true?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:49:51
Like, is it true, or is it not?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:49:56
And then, is it helpful? Again, is it moving me forward in the better… in the direction that I want to go?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:50:03
is it helping me go in the direction that I want to be?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:50:11
And some thoughts might be true, but they're not helpful.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:50:15
And if it's not helpful, then it's not worth
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:50:20
rehearsing, repeating, practicing.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:50:24
And…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:50:27
Most of us…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:50:31
are in a habit of repeating the same thoughts.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:50:34
We repeat the same thoughts, or the same collection of thoughts.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:50:40
And…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:50:42
Those thoughts reinforce those same emotions,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:50:46
And those same emotions derive the same actions,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:50:52
creating and reinforcing the same results, and then we wonder, why isn't anything changing?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:50:58
Why am I not losing weight? Why aren't my relationships improving?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:51:04
Why am I not getting more done?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:51:09
And… it's not that we don't know.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:51:13
We're just repeating patterns
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:51:16
That are not helpful.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:51:19
We're repeating thoughts that may or may not be true, but definitely are not helpful.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:51:24
And we just… we stay stuck. That's where we get stuck in that pattern.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:51:30
So,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:51:32
Again, we're not trying to fix everything today.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:51:36
We're not… we… we aren't… and the goal is not to become
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:51:42
Positive all the time. Let's just think positive, happy thoughts all the time. That is not even the goal.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:51:48
Please, do not hear what I am not saying.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:51:51
And we don't need to, like, replace all of our thoughts instantaneously.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:51:56
Here's what we want to do. We want to notice.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:52:02
You…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:52:04
cannot renew your mind.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:52:07
If you don't even pay attention to what you're thinking right now.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:52:11
The Bible says, take every thought captive,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:52:15
into the obedience of Christ.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:52:18
We can't take thoughts captive.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:52:20
If we don't even recognize that they're not obeying.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:52:22
God, right? We can't take anything captive that we're not even aware of.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:52:30
Renewing our minds means we need to be aware. What's even being… what are we thinking about now?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:52:38
to even know that it needs to be changed and renewed.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:52:43
So we want to pay attention.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:52:46
Pay attention, notice.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:52:49
So, here's what I want you to do. This week.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:52:55
Notice a thought.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:52:57
that you have on repeat. It can be…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:53:00
about a situation in your life. It can be about you, it can be about a person in your life.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:53:08
Um, it can be about life in general,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:53:11
What is something that you notice
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:53:13
that you tell yourself over and over, and you might hear yourself speaking it out loud, too.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:53:20
So, notice that thought.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:53:23
And I say write it down. Say it out loud, and write it down.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:53:28
And then ask yourself,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:53:30
Is this true? Is this…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:53:33
actually… even.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:53:35
True. Not does it feel true,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:53:39
Is this the truth?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:53:41
And…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:53:44
Is this helpful?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:53:46
And I'm just gonna say, if you ask yourself and it's not true, you really… you don't even need to move on to, is it helpful, right?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:53:53
Because if you decide it's not true,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:53:55
Then… to continue thinking that thought is just lying to yourself.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:54:00
And let's not do that. Let's be truth-tellers, right?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:54:04
Truth with love.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:54:06
So, is it true? And if you decide, yeah,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:54:10
I actually do believe this is true.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:54:13
Then you ask, and is this helpful?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:54:17
If it's not true and helpful,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:54:21
then we need… we have some renewal to do.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:54:25
We have some taking captive to do, right?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:54:29
And we don't want to rush it.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:54:31
Just notice it.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:54:35
So, catch a thought.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:54:38
that you have going on on repeat.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:54:42
And ask, is this true? And…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:54:45
is this helpful?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:54:48
And I… I want to, like…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:54:52
iterate it, reiterate it.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:54:55
There's nothing wrong with thinking these thoughts.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:54:58
Thoughts are going to come into our head. I've…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:55:01
I've heard that we have upwards of 60,000 thoughts a day.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:55:05
And so, we can't control all of the thoughts that come into our head.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:55:10
We're human, this is the way that God made us, God made our brains, this is…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:55:15
how he made us. You're human,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:55:18
You are not broken for the thoughts that you're thinking.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:55:21
You've just been practicing?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:55:23
a way of thinking that has not been helpful to you.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:55:27
And… when you have new information,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:55:32
then you are responsible
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:55:33
to that. You are responsible for what you keep believing.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:55:37
So this is where ownership and self-leadership comes in.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:55:43
And just remember, God is not the author of confusion, He's not the author of shame or condemnation.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:55:50
If a thought is tearing you down,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:55:53
keeping you stuck, telling you lies you don't matter,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:55:58
you're not worth it. Nobody cares, that should raise a red flag.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:56:05
Okay. So, again, this is the intro episode, so next week we are going to go a little bit deeper.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:56:14
into…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:56:16
the lies that we believe…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:56:19
that are around our identity. Identity lies that we've been believing.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:56:25
I'm not likable, I don't belong.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:56:28
There's something wrong with me, or I'm broken.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:56:31
And we're gonna… we're going to dive into those and start pulling those apart.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:56:37
Just remember, you don't need to fix everything all today.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:56:41
You just need to start noticing
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:56:44
Because the life that you're living right now is being shaped by the thoughts that you believe.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:56:51
And… if you're listening to this episode, if you listen to this podcast,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:56:56
We're not going to leave those thoughts unexamined anymore. We're going to question them.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:57:01
Is that even true?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:57:03
And… is that helpful?
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:57:08
I have in the podcast resources
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:57:11
For this episode, for episode 64.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:57:14
I'm going to have a worksheet available to you.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:57:19
So, in the show notes, there's a link for podcast resources. You can go to that link and
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:57:27
You opt in to the podcast resources, it'll take you to a folder.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:57:31
And it has…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:57:33
any podcast, any of the resources that I've created for the podcast,
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:57:37
And in there, there will be an episode 64
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:57:40
workbook, or worksheet.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:57:43
To help you get started doing this work.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:57:48
For real, in real time.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:57:50
And, um…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:57:53
I look forward to…
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:57:56
exploring all that's going to come in this series.
[Shanna Pyzer | shannapyzer.com] 13:57:59
