Ever feel like something's holding you back from living your best life? Brenda Juarez, the voice behind 'Toxica in Recovery', dives deep into this very struggle in the episode 'La Inner Toxica'.

This episode is all about identifying and understanding those barriers so we can start breaking them down.
Brenda kicks things off with a simple yet powerful question: What are your biggest blocks right now? She encourages listeners to grab a notebook and jot down everything that's been weighing them down. This isn't just about venting; it's about getting real with yourself. Once you've listed out your thoughts, Brenda guides you through identifying which of these are actual facts and which are just negative self-talk. But she doesn't stop there.
Brenda introduces a tool called 'The Model', inspired by Brooke Castillo, to help you work through these facts and reshape your mindset. It's a practical way to tackle limiting beliefs and start moving towards your goals. And if you're wondering how to cope with all this stress, Brenda has you covered. She shares her own coping mechanisms and stresses the importance of finding what works for you. This episode isn't just about self-discovery; it's a call to action.
Brenda's empathetic and candid approach makes you feel like you're chatting with a friend who's been there and gets it. Whether you're dealing with past trauma or just everyday stress, this episode offers a framework to help you take that crucial first step towards a better you.
