    E126: THE 'WHAT IF' RUNAWAY TRAIN & THE CHIMP

    You ever have one of those days where your brain just goes completely off the rails? The “what if” thoughts start stacking…  Worst-case scenarios take over…  And before you know it, you’ve mentally jumped off a cliff you were never even near. Yeah — me too. In this episode, I’m talking about what happens when your inner “chimp” takes over — a concept from The Chimp Paradox — and how quickly things can spiral if you don’t catch it. Because the truth is…  I lost my sh*t today.  My chimp snapped. But here’s what I’ve learned: You don’t fight the spiral with more chaos.  You don’t jump off the cliff.  You slow it down. You ask:  “What’s the next best thing I can do right now?” In this episode, we get into: The “what if” runaway train and how it hijacks your thinkingWhy your brain defaults to worst-case scenariosWhat it actually means to “control your chimp”How to interrupt emotional spirals in real timeAnd how to come back to center when you’ve already gone too farBecause resilience isn’t about never losing it —  it’s about recognizing it faster and choosing not to let it take you out. If life swings… and your mind starts spiraling…  this is how you don’t jump — and start swinging back.

    E125 - WHEN YOU FORGET TO SWING BACK

    I've tried to build a message around resilience.  “Swing back.”  “Be in love with being alive.” But what happens when you’re the one not doing either? This episode is about that gap —  the space between what you say and how you’re actually living. Because the truth is, even the strongest people fall out of alignment.  You get tired. You get hit. You stop fighting back.  And before you know it, you’re not practicing the very things you preach. This isn’t about guilt or hypocrisy.  It’s about awareness and ownership. In this episode, I talk about: What it looks like to quietly stop showing up for your own messageHow to recognize when you’ve fallen out of alignmentWhy it happens (especially for high performers and leaders)And how to get back to yourself — without shame, just actionBecause resilience isn’t about always getting it right.  It’s about catching it faster and choosing to swing back again.

    E124 - A STORY ON "WHEN LIFE SWINGS - SWING BACK!"

    MY FIRST EVER SPEAKING EVENT SHARED WITH YOU! WHEN LIFE SWINGS - ARE YOU GOING TO FALL VICTIM TO IT? OR SWING BACK? The reason I have been doing some replays from the "oldie but goodie" episodes is because I was super busy with my first ever in person speaking event. I tried to spend any free business time focused on that and now I have it for you! It's less than 5 minutes so listen and let me know what you think! I joined the NSA back in August, they had a "last story standing competition"  So I couldn't wait to actually be on stage and speak! The goal was: A moment in time, a story - One Theme - One Outcome - One Call to Action but it had to be 5 minutes or less. I can't wait for you all to listen!

    E123 - ⭐️ OLDIE BUT GOODIE - BELIEF SYSTEM & MORMON NO MORE!

    Ya'll - I am replaying some of the "greatest hits" of this podcast because we have so many new listeners and I find it so helpful to go back to WHAT actually happened - what brought us here? Listen to this episode to hear about how I grew up mormon - which was amazing, I knew who I was because of this - but as I got older - I found my OWN belief system. Having your own belief system is PIVOTAL in having an identity - remember this quote while listening "if you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything" MY BOOK! www.ballinandbipolar.com/book Link for my FREE resources! 👇  www.ballinandbipolar.com/free-resources JOIN MY FREE FACEBOOK GROUP FOR CONTENT AND SUPPORT! https://www.facebook.com/share/g/15nYfoUynq/
