How Self-Talk Can Change Everything (How I've Become a Positive Person) | Ep. 171

About this episode

In this episode, I talk about the power of words—and how what you say out loud can shape how you think, feel, and show up every day. I reflect on a story Jesse Itzler shared about running a 100-mile race, and how his self-talk carried him through the darkest moments.

I also share how one of the most impactful mentors in my life, Coach Old May, used to tell me, “We don’t have time for bad days.” That mindset stuck with me—and I believe it’s one of the reasons I’m such a joyful and grounded person today.
