Episode 62 : Where Did That Come From? : The Thought Trap
<p>We all have ideas about who we are. "I'm just the way I am." "I've always been like this." "It's in my makeup." But where did those ideas come from in the first place? In this episode of The Thought Trap, I explore how the stories we hold about ourselves are often built from experiences, comments, interpretations and repeated thoughts that, over time, begin to feel like facts.</p><br><p><strong>👉Join my mailing list</strong> 👉<a href="https://www.beccagardner.com/free-audio" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.beccagardner.com/free-audio</a></p><p><strong>👉 Find out about HOME, my 1:1 space</strong><a href="https://www.beccagardner.com/new-page-2" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong> </strong>https://www.beccagardner.com/new-page-2</a></p><p><strong>👉Follow me on instagram</strong><a href="https://www.instagram.com/beccagardnercoach/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong> </strong>https://www.instagram.com/beccagardnercoach/</a></p><p><strong>👉Ask me a Question</strong><a href="mailto:becca@beccagardner.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> becca@beccagardner.com</a></p><br><p><strong>👉Episode 47 (Apple)</strong><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-47-the-emotional-identity-trap-the-thought-trap/id1801723772?i=1000752964486" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-47-the-emotional-identity-trap-the-thought-trap/id1801723772?i=1000752964486</a></p><p><strong>👉Episode 47 (Spotify) </strong><a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/1HUdrmDPqLqgMs2Jrob7il?si=3db1da3408244555" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/episode/1HUdrmDPqLqgMs2Jrob7il?si=3db1da3408244555</a></p><br><p><br></p><p><strong>"The Thought Trap</strong> — a space for quieting the busy brain, turning down the noisy chatter, and stepping more fully into life"</p><br><p><strong>Disclaimer:</strong></p><p>As a Certified Change Coach trained by Dr. Amy Johnson, PhD, and a member of the Association of Coaching, I approach wellbeing from a holistic perspective.

Episode 61: The Coping Mechanism : The Thought Trap
<p>In today episode, I want to talk about what was probably my biggest coping mechanism for many years: reassurance. But while reassurance happened to be mine, this episode isn't really about reassurance. It's about coping mechanisms in general. The things we reach for when we don't feel okay. The things that seem to help, at least for a while. The things that promise relief, comfort, certainty, or distraction. Because whether it's reassurance, Googling, scrolling, keeping busy, planning, checking, avoiding, eating, drinking, or endlessly trying to work something out, most of us have something we turn to when life feels uncomfortable. And understanding what was really happening beneath my coping mechanism changed everything for me and those that I work with.</p><br><p><strong>👉Join my mailing list</strong> 👉<a href="https://www.beccagardner.com/free-audio" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.beccagardner.com/free-audio</a></p><p><strong>👉 Find out about HOME, my 1:1 space</strong><a href="https://www.beccagardner.com/new-page-2" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong> </strong>https://www.beccagardner.com/new-page-2</a></p><p><strong>👉Follow me on instagram</strong><a href="https://www.instagram.com/beccagardnercoach/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong> </strong>https://www.instagram.com/beccagardnercoach/</a></p><p><strong>👉Ask me a Question</strong><a href="mailto:becca@beccagardner.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> becca@beccagardner.com</a></p><br><p><br></p><p><strong>"The Thought Trap</strong> — a space for quieting the busy brain, turning down the noisy chatter, and stepping more fully into life"</p><br><p><strong>Disclaimer:</strong></p><p>As a Certified Change Coach trained by Dr. Amy Johnson, PhD, and a member of the Association of Coaching, I approach wellbeing from a holistic perspective.
