In this episode of The Unbroken Podcast, Chris and Mel dive into the world of viral mindset mantras — the ones that sound super motivating on Instagram… but fall apart in real life. From “Just manifest it” to “No bad days” and “Fall in love with the grind,” we break down 10 popular phrases that often do more harm than good.
With humor, honesty, and practical wisdom, we explore how these messages can lead to shame, burnout, or disconnection — and what to do instead. We don’t just call out the fluff — we offer grounded, faith-rooted alternatives that actually build resilience, contentment, and real growth.
If you’ve ever felt guilty for not vibing high enough, grinding hard enough, or manifesting fast enough — this one’s for you.
