Why Asking "What Else Is True?" Changes Everything

Let us know what you enjoy about the show!


"What else is true?" This deceptively simple question might just
be one of the most transformative tools we can add to our mental
toolkit. When faced with any situation - whether challenging,
joyful, or mundane - asking what else might be true beyond our
initial perception opens doors to deeper understanding and
conscious living.

Throughout our conversation, we explore how this powerful
question creates space in our thinking. So many of us move
through life on autopilot, eating breakfast while barely tasting
it, making snap judgments based on limited information, or
accepting societal narratives without question. By pausing to
consider alternative perspectives, we break free from narrow
patterns and discover nuances we'd otherwise miss.

We dive into the fascinating territory of personal motivation and
meaning. Why do you value what you value? Why do you behave as
you do? Many people live on the surface level of explanation -
"I'm nice because it's good to be nice" - without examining the
deeper, personal significance behind their actions. Understanding
your unique "why" transforms your relationship with yourself and
the world around you.

The conversation takes an especially powerful turn when
discussing limiting beliefs around aging and life transitions
like menopause. Rather than accepting brain fog or other
challenges as inevitable identity markers, asking "what else is
true?" shifts us into solution-focused thinking. This reframing
transforms potential limitations into opportunities for growth
and self-management.

Try asking yourself "what else is true?" in various situations
today and notice how it broadens your perspective, slows down
automatic reactions, and helps you make more conscious choices
aligned with your authentic self. Your limiting beliefs don't
have to define you - and this simple question might be the key to
breaking free.
