As humans, one of our natural dispositions is to create stories about why the world functions the way it does. This is a primitive skill that kept our ancestors safe.
For example, when we see tracks in the mud we write the story “These tracks were created by a large animal that will mistake me for dinner. I had better walk in the other direction.”
Because the function of these stories is to keep us safe, our subconscious mind is not satisfied if we don’t have a story and will create one in its absence. That’s why our actions can be influenced and guided by stories that are not true.
This can happen with the stories we tell about ourselves about why we are the way we are and who we can be.
In this conversation, Jacqui Crooks and I discuss these stories we have about ourselves that are no longer true and useful. She also shares how we can transform these stories.

Thank you for this, it is an interesting and insightful conversation. I’ve listened to it a couple of times and have tapped round and round while repeating your conversation to myself. Each time I listen and tap I can feel that there is some relief and that is helpful, even if I can’t say exactly what it is that I’m responding to.
