Let’s get real, friend: have you ever caught yourself spiraling down a rabbit hole of “what ifs,” negative self-talk, or the kind of inner dialogue that makes you feel like the world’s worst CEO?
Yeah… me too.
But in this episode of The Jasmine Star Show, I’m unpacking how to stop the spiral and start steering your thoughts in the direction of success, growth, and peace of mind—because if your thoughts are powerful enough to tear you down, they’re powerful enough to build you back up, too.
This episode was inspired by two books that absolutely rocked my world:
- 📖 The Untethered Soul by Michael Singer (hello, 4.7 stars on Amazon!)
- 📘 Chatter: The Voice in Our Head, Why It Matters, and How to Harness It by Ethan Kross
But instead of just recapping what these authors say, I’m sharing the real, raw way I’ve lived this work—through entrepreneurship, failure, burnout, and personal growth.
Here’s what you’ll hear:
✨ Why rumination and worry feel “normal” for entrepreneurs—and how they secretly hold you back
✨ How my inner critic disguised itself as a drill sergeant—and nearly drove me to burnout
✨ The four roles your inner voice plays in your life (according to Dr. Ethan Kross)
✨ Why reframing your inner voice into an inner coach could change everything
And here’s the truth: I used to think my inner critic was helping me succeed. I thought it made me stronger, faster, better.
Spoiler alert: it just made me tired, anxious, and scared to take risks.
I share how I finally decided to “divorce” my inner critic—and how I shifted into becoming a detective for success instead.
Because when you reframe the voice in your head, you stop asking “what if it goes wrong?” and start asking “what can I learn to go further?”
This episode is part pep talk, part psychology, and full-on strategy for anyone ready to rewire their mindset and show up as the empowered, resilient leader your business needs you to be.
Let’s tune out the negative noise, and tune into something far more powerful.
