The Power Of Understanding Why Mindset Comes First (Launch Your Life Podcast Episode 155)

There are two sides inside our emotional brain: the connected side, which is where positivity, our ability for clarity, and our sense of confidence are. Our power is all in that connected side. On the other side of the brain is the disconnected side and that's where our fear, guilt, worry, and all of those things that suck our energy are. That's where head trash lives. Renie Cavallari says that the goal of life is to spend as much time as possible on the connected side. And she shares how we can do that in today’s episode of The Launch Your Life Podcast.
