Have you ever considered the power of positive self-talk in preventing self-sabotage? 

In this Lemon Drop, we uncover the tools to overcome self-sabotage through empowering self-talk, and explore coaching techniques for a supportive inner dialogue to navigate challenges and avoid undermining your own success.


The Slice: Harnessing Positive Self-Talk for Success

Being constantly aware of our inner narrative is so crucial to our own individual success. Our reality is created in our minds. If we tell ourselves we can’t do something, we are not worthy, or we don’t deserve more…well then…that is the result we receive. It can be easy to let setbacks, failures, mistakes or challenges get the best of us if we see them, the way we immediately feel in the moment, as a negative. This is where reframing a negative feeling to a positive thought is absolutely necessary. 

I prioritize always finding the silver lining in every situation but I’ve come to learn through my failures and mistakes that I must first take responsibility for where I messed up, forgive myself, learn from it and move on. Your inner voice can be your greatest ally in navigating obstacles and achieving your goals and you are in complete control of it. Don’t self-sabotage yourself.
