EP236 Minisode: The Litmus Test For Your Truth

In today’s episode, Colleen peels back the curtain on one of the most radical shifts we can make: recognizing that we are not our thoughts—we’re the observer behind them. What starts as a reflection on managing the energy in your body becomes a masterclass in emotional authorship, reminding us that our thoughts, not our circumstances, are what create our lived reality.

Using the metaphor of a self-driving car, Colleen breaks down how most of us are unconsciously letting outdated programming steer our lives. But it doesn’t have to be that way. When you take back the wheel—choosing how you want to feel and filtering your thoughts through that emotional compass—you begin to rewrite the narrative of your life, one aligned action at a time.

This episode is both a wake-up call and a permission slip: to believe what feels good, let go of what causes suffering, and trust that healing your inner world is how you change the outer one. If you've ever wondered whether it’s really possible to feel free, peaceful, and powerful in your own skin—this is your answer.

🔑 Key Takeaways:

• You are not your thoughts—you’re the one hearing them. Use that awareness to change your story.

• Your body is your compass; if a thought feels heavy or constricting, it’s not the truth you need.

• You don’t need external validation to feel good—you need internal alignment.

• Emotional energy is your language with the universe. Tune it, and your life will start to reflect it.

• The bravest thing you can do is feel your feelings and then choose the ones you want more of.
