Reaction First, Thoughts Second
Thursday, 15 January, 2026
How often do we react before we’ve even had a chance to think? In this episode, I explore how our first reaction to a situation is often driven by habit, fear, or past experiences — not by truth or possibility. We jump to conclusions, assume the worst, or label something as “negative” before we’ve paused long enough to see it clearly. What if that moment we’re resisting is actually working for us?What if the thing we react to first ends up being a benefit, not a setback? This conversation is an invitation to slow the space between reaction and response, to question our initial assumptions, and to consider how a shift in perspective can completely change the outcome. Less reacting.More thinking.And a whole lot more peace in between.
