Negative thoughts are part of being human — but how long you stay stuck in them? That’s where the real impact lies.
In this solo episode, Vanessa explores how our primitive brains are wired to default to fear and doubt, and why this survival mechanism holds us back when we're trying to move forward in our careers and lives. She shares the real cost of letting negative thoughts take the wheel — from mental paralysis to energy depletion — and offers a powerful reframing practice to help you take your power back.
You’ll learn:
Why negative thoughts feel so automatic
How to recognize and interrupt spirals that keep you stuck
A simple 3-step reframing process backed by psychology
How to use visualization and daily “thought triggers” to shift your mindset
Why reframing is critical when you’re building a new career vision
How taking action creates proof — and rewires your belief system
Whether you’re pivoting, starting over, or simply trying to stay grounded while going after something new — this episode is a mindset reset to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.
