EP 302 - The Power of Words: How Language Shapes Our Lives
In this episode of the Doing What Matters podcast, we discuss the profound impact words have on our lives. We explore how language influences our self-perception, emotions, and actions. The conversation delves into the significance of reframing negative thoughts and using specific language to create meaningful and actionable steps in various life areas. We introduce the concept of 'I am' statements and areas of focus to help listeners redefine their lives holistically. We also recommend resources like Teresa's book 'Do What Matters: Live from Rest, Not Rush' and the Needs and Values Assessment available on their website to further aid in developing empowering language. Come dive into this conversation with us!
