What if your biggest limitations aren’t rooted in truth—but in unexamined beliefs?
In this mind-bending episode of the Personal Mastery & Growth podcast, we explore the powerful difference between what’s true and what simply feels true because it’s been repeated—internally or externally.
Prepare to:
🧠 Understand How Beliefs Are Formed
Learn how your early environment, repeated experiences, and emotional associations write “code” that gets accepted as truth—often without your awareness.
🔬 Explore the Brain’s Truth Bias and the Illusory Truth Effect
Discover why your brain is wired to favor consistency over accuracy, and how it tends to reinforce whatever you’ve heard the most—even if it’s limiting or false.
🚨 Identify Beliefs That Feel True but Hold You Back
From “I’m not creative” to “People like me don’t succeed,” we break down how disempowering stories form—and what they cost you.
🛠️ Use 6 Questions to Challenge and Reframe Old Beliefs
Learn a practical process to question inherited beliefs, identify emotional roots, and create new stories aligned with your truth—not your conditioning.
This episode is an invitation to become the editor of your internal narrative—and choose belief systems that align with who you’re becoming.
