What Story Are You Telling Yourself?

Empowered AF 2.0 - Episode 123: "What Story Are You Telling Yourself?"


In this episode, Mark dives deep into the power of stories and how they shape our perspectives and actions. Whether it’s through movies, sports, or our personal lives, the stories we tell ourselves can either empower us or keep us trapped in harmful patterns. Mark challenges participants to take a hard look at the narratives they’ve created and make the shift from victimhood to empowerment.

Highlights:

  • The Power of Stories: Mark discusses how we're all drawn to stories and explains how the narratives we create about our lives aren't always based on reality.Commitments vs. Convictions: True commitment stems from deep personal conviction.
  • Manipulating Through Stories: Andrew shares how he tried to win back his wife through manipulative actions, which Mark calls out, stressing the importance of genuine self-care over external validation.
  • Shifting from Victim to Empowered: Carlos opens up about how he changed his mindset from being a victim to owning his actions, marking a pivotal step in his personal growth.
  • Overcoming Guilt and Building Trust: Adam shares his struggle with guilt after abandoning his family, and Mark encourages him to take ownership, move from guilt to conviction, and rebuild trust.
