Get a Grip with Dr. Gauri Behari

Stuck on Repeat: What's Really Happening When You Can't Stop Dwelling

Do you replay conversations for hours—or days—after they happen? The meeting ends at 2 p.m., but you're still thinking about what you should have said at 10 p.m. You reread the email. You analyze every facial expression. You draft a text, delete it, rewrite it, and wonder if you've somehow ruined everything. If that sounds familiar, you’ll want to listen to this whole discussion. In this episode, Dr. Gauri Behari admits something most of us try to hide: she's a dweller. Together, we unpack why some people can't seem to let things go, why your brain keeps replaying uncomfortable moments, and what actually helps when you want the mental loop to stop. We talk about: * Why you can remember criticism for years but struggle to hold onto compliments * The hidden difference between processing and rumination• How venting can sometimes make you feel worse instead of better * A simple mindset shift that helps create distance from anxious thoughts * Practical tools you can use the next time you're replaying a conversation for the hundredth time If you've ever spent an entire evening dissecting a five-minute interaction, wondering whether you said too much, not enough, or the wrong thing altogether, this episode will help you break the cycle and finally give your brain a little peace.

When Leadership Feels Like Dread, Not a Dream

You'd be amazing in that role. There's a management position opening up — you should go for it. If someone's said that to you and your gut reaction was I'm not sure I even want to… then make sure you listen to this one. Dr. Gauri Behari breaks down why that hesitation is completely normal — and about how we define the word "leader" in the first place. Because being a supervisor, a manager, and a leader are three very different jobs, and most of us hear "leader" and brace for the parts we dread. In this episode we get into:  → The 3 roles hiding inside every "leadership" opportunity  → How to tell imposter syndrome apart from your true preferences  → Spotting your limiting beliefs (and swapping every "I should" for "I could")  → Why being a leader at home, in your community, or for your team counts just as much . → The Tale of Two Lisas — two brilliant women who chose to lead in completely different ways The big reframe: when people see leadership in you, that's information, not instruction. You get to decide what to do with it. 🎧 New episode of Get a Grip with Dr. Gauri Behari — where we flip the frame and find our footing. 👉 Follow Get a Grip on Instagram @getagripshow [https://www.instagram.com/getagripshow/] 👉 Follow Dr. Gauri Behari on Instagram @axisendocrinology [https://www.instagram.com/axisendocrinology/] 👉 Follow Natalie on Instagram @Sincerely__Natalie [https://www.instagram.com/sincerely__natalie/] #GetAGripPodcast #LeadershipDevelopment #ImposterSyndrome #WomenInLeadership #CareerGrowth #LeadershipMindset #LimitingBeliefs #BeBraveNotPerfect #CareerAdvice #WomenWhoLead #ProfessionalDevelopment #LeadershipCoaching #CareerClarity #PersonalGrowth #PodcastForWomen

Am I On Mute?

You say something in a meeting. Silence. Two minutes later, someone else says the same thing… and the room lights up. You do the mute check. Nope, not muted. So what just happened? In Episode 2, a listener brings a situation almost every high performer has lived: speaking up at work and feeling invisible. Natalie and Gauri break down the two injuries hiding inside that moment: the one the room caused, and the one you do to yourself afterward. They walk you through a real toolkit to help you shift the format when the loudest voice takes up all the space. Listen in for the harder question: what to do when you've tried everything and the room still won't change.

Freezing in the Room You Fought to Get Into

You walk into a room ready to show up — and then everything upends. In this first episode, moderator Natalie Bulger shares a real moment of professional spiraling after a networking event left her questioning everything: her confidence, her belonging, and whether she even knew what she was selling anymore. Dr. Gauri Behari unpacks it with three tools you can use immediately: her three-lens framework for separating how you feel from what’s actually happening, the Post-it exercise for getting radically clear on your skills and purpose, and Warren Buffett’s top-five prioritization method for high achievers who want to do everything. If you’ve ever frozen in a room you fought to get into — or spiraled after an event that didn’t go the way you planned — this episode is for you.
