612: Talking to Yourself Isn't Crazy (It's How You Master Your Mind)
19 Nov 2025
When you see someone talking to themself in public, your first thought might be that person is a little crazy and maybe has mental health issues. But what if it's actually one of the most powerful forms of self-leadership? In today's episode, I'll show you how using your own voice can immediately transform your mental and emotional state, elevate your focus, and help you lead yourself through any challenge. I'll share a story about a close friend who inspired me with his daily "self-talk" practice, and how I came to realize he wasn't acting crazy—he was actually being very intentional. Over time, I discovered that speaking affirmations and prayers out loud with intensity, not just thinking them silently, has a far more profound impact on my mental, emotional state, and physical nervous system. Lastly, I'll walk you through a simple 14-day challenge that you can track and rate the impact it's having on you. Because the truth is, silence helps you observe your mind, but your voice can lead it. KEY TAKEAWAYS Why talking to yourself out loud isn't crazy, it's conscious self-leadership. How spoken affirmations and prayers can instantly shift your emotions. The science behind distanced self-talk and how it reprograms your identity. The difference that silence and speaking out loud has on your Miracle Morning. A 14-day challenge to strengthen your focus, faith, and mindset.
