Think you’ve finally "mastered" your mindset—only to get triggered again in the same old ways? In this episode, we’re unpacking the myth of mindset mastery and why personal growth is less about reaching a final destination and more about choosing who you want to be—again and again. From repeating patterns to feeling frustrated by “regression,” we talk about how to recognize your wins (yes, awareness is a win), rewire your reactions with compassion, and build resilience even when it feels like you should be past this by now. This conversation will remind you: if it still feels hard, you’re not failing—you’re growing. In this episode, we cover: Why your “old” mindset patterns resurface—and how that’s a normal, protective response Letting go of the myth of mastery in personal growth How to pair physical and mental practices to reinforce new habits Ways to reframe your inner dialogue when you mess up or slip back The power of modeling emotional regulation—for your kids and for yourself Connect with Whitney & Stephanie: captureyourconfidencepodcast@gmail.com Stephanie IG: @ _stephanie_hanna_ The Other 85: https://theother85.net/ Whitney IG: @ whitneyabraham Join the State of Women Conference on October 9, 2025: https://whitneyabraham.kartra.com/page/stateofwomenconference…
