In this episode of The Thought SNOB Podcast, Paula tackles the sayings we’ve all been conditioned to believe — the ones we repeat like they’re wisdom, when in reality they’re lies wrapped in clichés. From “money is the root of all evil” to “must be nice,” these phrases shape how we see ourselves, others, and even our future.
Our socialization is powerful. From childhood, we’re taught to adopt ideals that simply aren’t true. Over time, those false beliefs become blocks — holding us back from success, confidence, and a higher quality of life.
Paula unpacks why we cling to these sayings, how they’re rooted in ignorance rather than wisdom, and how to break free from the conditioning that keeps us small.
If you’ve ever cringed at clichés, wrestled with limiting beliefs, or wanted a fresh perspective on the words we take for granted, this episode will leave you with a new awareness — and the power to challenge the scripts you’ve been handed.
