Ever catch yourself thinking your ex was the one or that losing weight will solve all your problems?

But what if the real issue isn’t the thoughts themselves, but what we make them mean?In this Coaching Hotline episode, I’m breaking down why struggling with the same thoughts for years goes beyond just negative thinking. Identifying unhealthy thoughts isn’t enough—the real work is understanding how your beliefs about those thoughts are causing just as much suffering.
