How many times have you told yourself to stop overthinking? You go around and around in your head, analyze every possibility, and try to figure out what you should do. And then, on top of everything else, you get frustrated with yourself for doing it again.

But what if thinking isn't actually the problem?

In this episode of Before You Change Everything…, we're exploring what might be happening underneath overthinking and why your mind can become the place you go when feeling something feels harder.

Because sometimes, all that thinking isn't helping you find an answer. It's helping you avoid an uncomfortable feeling.

We'll look at how thinking can give us a temporary sense of control, why trying to reason your way out of an emotion can keep you stuck, and how to recognize when you're genuinely working through a problem versus looking for relief from what you're feeling.

You'll also get an opportunity to pause, step out of the mental loop, and get curious about what's actually happening beneath it.

The goal isn't to stop thinking. It's to understand what you're feeling so you can decide what you want to do with that information.
