68. Put Your Focus Back Where It Belongs

I want to welcome you as I take a dive into the concept of female empowerment, addressing the common struggle women face in seeking a definitive "right answer." I explore the tendency to be entangled in others' lives, especially in situations involving our loved ones, and how this fixation on someone else's thoughts and feelings can lead to confusion and agitation.

Through the lens of cognitive behavioral science, I explain the importance of understanding one's own model (comprising thoughts, emotions, and actions) and emphasize the power of focusing inward. I guide listeners in breaking free from the habit of being absorbed in someone else's model, encouraging you to reclaim control over your own thoughts and emotions. Join me as we explore the path to empowerment, learning how to make strong decisions and find certainty within ourselves.
