"Pause, Choose, Live in that order – it's about taking control before the imposter voice does."
In the heart of this episode of The Freeology Podcast, Jason Lyle tackles the pesky imposter voice that nags at us all. You know the one – it whispers that we're not good enough, and sometimes it shouts when we've had a rough day. Jason offers a simple yet powerful practice to help catch this voice before it steers your choices. By pausing, noticing, and naming those old patterns, you can respond with honesty and self-love rather than reacting impulsively.
Jason's approach is both practical and relatable, drawing from his own experiences and insights. He talks about how our autopilot reactions often lead us down paths we regret, like sending that angry text or indulging in habits we'd rather leave behind. With a sprinkle of humour, he compares these ingrained behaviours to tying your shoes – something you do without thinking. This episode encourages you to slow down and be proactive.
Jason shares tools like cold water therapy, meditation, and breath work to help hack into the autonomic nervous system, providing a pause that allows you to choose your response. His mantra "Pause, Choose, Live" is a guiding light in moments of dysregulation. If you've ever felt controlled by your inner critic or found yourself living reactively, this episode is a must-listen. Jason's wisdom offers a pathway to freedom from those destructive mindsets, empowering you to live with integrity and joy.
So why not take a moment to pause, reflect, and discover the new you?
