Let Go of the Stories That Keep You Stuck With Nancy Colier

In this episode, therapist, author, and spiritual counselor Nancy Colier joins us to explore one of the most powerful forces shaping our emotional lives: the stories we tell ourselves. In her new book Narratives: Let Go of the Stories That Keep You Stuck, Nancy explains how our minds fill in the blanks of everyday life, often creating meaning that feels true but isn’t grounded in reality. Join Nancy as she shows us how to recognize when we’ve slipped into a “narrative trance,” how to question the assumptions that fuel our suffering, and how dropping our stories can bring us back into the present moment — where clarity, resilience, and new possibilities live.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why our minds create narratives — and how those stories quietly shape our emotional lives.
• How to spot a “narrative trance” and step out of it before it hijacks your reactions.
• How letting go of old stories helps you meet life with more clarity, compassion, and freedom.
