In this episode of PTSD and Beyond, we delve into the power of resilience and the moments when we surprise ourselves by achieving what we once thought was impossible. Inspired by the quote by Dr. Deb Lindh, “Just when you think you cannot do something, you surprise yourself and find out that you can,” we unpack how self-efficacy, mindful self-compassion, and the psychology of breaking through personal limits can transform your outlook on life.

Join us as we explore how to shift limiting beliefs, reflect on past successes, and cultivate a compassionate mindset to push beyond perceived boundaries.

Key Topics Covered:

• Self-Efficacy: Learn about the psychology of self-efficacy, founded by Albert Bandura, and how believing in your ability to succeed plays a key role in overcoming obstacles. Discover how small wins and external encouragement can help build your confidence.

• Mindful Self-Compassion Exercise: Follow along with a guided practice that will teach you how to extend kindness to yourself, especially in moments of doubt, to keep moving forward.

• Breaking Personal Limits: Explore how moments of surprising yourself often come from building a foundation of resilience, persistence, and mindfulness.
