The Power of Your Words | The God Vibe Ep 15

Every time you describe your life out loud, you are handing yourself a set of instructions. Most of us have never once read ours back. In this episode I tell you the story of how I learned that, and it is not a comfortable one. For years I said the same sentence to my husband about the childhood experience I wanted our children to have. Thirty-some years later I got it. All of it, including the half I had forgotten I was asking for. I did not sleep that night, and the answer that came was five words I have never been able to put down. Then I give you the practical part: how to describe a hard situation accurately without quietly turning that description into a prediction. In this episode: — Why your words are proclamations, not just descriptions — What you are really saying when you joke about being half dead — The boomerang effect: why the world goes looking for evidence of whatever you say about it — Three qualifiers that change everything: at the level of fact, up until now, in the past — How to speak about your health when the current evidence is bad CHAPTERS 0:00 The power of your words 0:55 The power of the word exists within you 1:30 A wild story about how I learned this 2:02 Fifth grade, Tippy, and a litter born at the foot of my bed 4:04 Setting a clear intention for the perfect pet 4:49 The November walk and the sign that was gone 6:46 Meeting Duchess 8:38 Remember my words 9:06 Duchy gets pregnant 9:40 The night the hairball was a kitten 11:03 Christmas Eve 12:15 The part of the story I left out on purpose 13:25 The question I asked that night 14:06 "You got everything you asked for" 15:24 Bring awareness — even when you're kidding 15:32 "I'm half dead": what you put behind your I am 17:05 The boomerang effect 17:38 How to flip the switch 18:03 At the level of fact, up until now, in the past 19:10 Proclaiming what you would love, especially about health 19:51 What I hope you take from this 20:30 Where to go next 21:26 Outro What would you love, if fear was not making the decision?
