Sometimes, we get a little lost in the rabbit holes of our minds and we wind up in the junk food aisle of thought. Y'know, stuff like:

  • Gossip
  • Complaining
  • Quick fixes
  • Self-doubt
  • Things you've thought before...

We're going to explore junk food self-talk on The Transforming Anxiety Podcast today.

This is something I'm pretty sure, oh, 100% of us do. 🙃

The more we can pay attention to the quality and content of our thinking, the BETTER.

Because when we clean up our thinking, there's a ripple effect on our emotions, our words, our actions, our behaviors...our LIVES.

I know, junk food tastes good. It's quick, it's convenient, it's so easy and yummy. I get it.

Same with junk food thoughts.

They're just RIGHT THERE, and they typically come with a little zip of dopamine, the little quick zip of pleasure.

But...but...

...just like real junk food, junk thinking isn't healthy, it isn't nourishing, and it doesn't support you in being the most YOU you that you can be.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
