What if you could decide — right now — to change your story and create a new reality for your life? In this episode of the Triggered AF Podcast, Alechia Reese & Dani Bourdeau sit down with Stella Stephanopoulos, host of the Everyday Endorphins podcast, for a deep conversation on the power of the mind, the stories we tell ourselves, and how to cultivate joy that lasts. Stella reminds us that we are not beholden to the identities or stories others told us. Through visualization, intentional decisions, and therapeutic tools like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), she shows us how to shift our thoughts, rewire our belief systems, and ultimately transform our reality. This episode isn't about toxic positivity — it's about learning how to savor life's pleasures, while also building an inner foundation of self-trust, self-talk, and resilience.
