underrated recovery hacks to change the beliefs that are holding you back

Most of us are well aware of the patterns we want to break—the cycles that keep us from experiencing true peace and intimacy. We can see the behaviors that sabotage our connections, but knowing isn’t the same as changing. One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned on my own journey is that transforming our beliefs is essential to transforming our actions. In this episode, we’ll explore some of the deeply held beliefs that might be holding you back, and I’ll share why a temporary break from social media might become a lasting one for me. We’ll dive into how major platforms are shifting from “social media” to “recommendation media” and the effect this can have on our emotional well-being. I’ll also address a recent review that questioned my stance on the BPD label and why I continue to challenge the potential harms of labels that can reinforce limiting beliefs about ourselves.Topics we’ll explore include:The impact of social media on emotional stability, particularly for those with high emotional sensitivityWhether mental health labels like “borderline personality disorder” are helpful or limitingHow cognitive biases and “splitting” can affect our healing processThe importance of adopting a “growth mindset” to improve communication and build healthier relationshipsUnderstanding and managing “obsessive” tendencies, such as constantly checking a partner’s social mediaPractical tips for navigating romantic relationships when intense emotions are part of the mixThis episode is a deep dive into how shifting your beliefs can open the door to new patterns, healthier relationships, and a more grounded approach to self-discovery and growth. Recommended resources:  ■ Article – “The End of Social Media and the Rise of Recommendation Media” by Michael Mignano■ Article – The people who want to get rid of the term ‘personality disorder’ by Emily Reynolds for Dazed Digital■ Book – Designing the Mind: The Principles of Psychitecture by Ryan Bush Craving more?
