Your Brain Is the Best Liar You’ve Ever Met

with Sally Luehman – The REAL Podcast

Your brain is clever — maybe too clever. Our brains are great at protecting us, but sometimes they lie. They make fear sound like common sense — and that keeps us stuck. This week on The REAL, Sally gets honest about how our own brain can be the most convincing liar we’ll ever meet.

If you’ve ever felt like your brain flips a switch and suddenly you’re nine years old again — reacting instead of responding, craving comfort, control, or validation — you’re not alone. In this episode, Sally breaks down the difference between an untrained brain (reactive, fear-based, driven by old stories) and a trained brain (intentional, disciplined, and calm under pressure).

You’ll learn how to spot when your mind is hijacking your business, your relationships, and your peace — and how to retrain it to work for you, not against you.

This episode is especially for the driven businesswoman who looks successful on paper but still feels like she’s fighting her own mind. Maybe you know what to do, but your brain talks you out of it every time. It’s not willpower — it’s training. And the good news? You can train it.
