Monday, 30 March, 2026
What if the story making you feel stuck isn't wrong — it's just incomplete?War, inflation, outrage and doomscrolling. This week Michele shares one of her favorite coaching tools — a single question that interrupts that tunnel vision and opens up what you couldn't see before. In this episode:Why rumination narrows attention — and what the science says about breaking that loopHow unsupportive partners, friends, and dinner tables feel like the whole story — and why they're notThe "I can't afford it" story, and what you're probably not noticing inside itWhy this is NOT positive thinking, denial, or pretending things are fineThe doomscrolling trap: how to stop handing your nervous system to the headlinesA simple 4-step practice you can use anywhere, anytimeThe question at the center of it all:What am I not noticing that is not that?The 4-step practice:Name the "that" — what story are you treating as the whole truth?Notice how it shows up — sentence, image, pressure, knot, voice?Soften your eyes — widen your gaze and take in the roomAsk the question — then find one "not-that" move you can make nextResources mentioned:Research on rumination and attentional narrowing: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3773498/Open-monitoring mindfulness research: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5195874/Subscribe & Review:If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe and leave a review on your favorite podcast platform.
