Beskrivelse

In this episode, we’re getting into neural pathways—what they are, how they form, and why you keep repeating the same patterns even when you know better. We break down how your brain creates “default settings” through repetition, how childhood experiences shape your reactions today, and why changing your life isn’t about one big moment—it’s about rewiring the small things over time. We also talk about:Why your brain clings to familiar patterns (even when they’re not serving you)The difference between awareness vs actually changing behaviorHow “manifestation” is really just rewiring your neural pathwaysWhy you don’t need to destroy your past to build a better future Practical ways to start shifting your thoughts, habits, and reactions If you’ve ever thought “why do I keep doing this?”—this episode is for you. ✨ And a reminder—only you have the power to change your brain.

episode Fear, Guilt, and Country Crock cover

Fear, Guilt, and Country Crock

This episode starts with Sarah and Amanda reminiscing about childhood memories. From Country Crock swimming on toasted bagels to Weight Watchers snacks masquerading as treats, we can all agree the 90s were deep in their diet era. After some encouragement -- the girls get into the "meat and potatoes of the discussion". The seemingly age old phrase: "You'll miss me when I'm gone." After Amanda posed that question to Threads, the responses opened up a much bigger conversation about fear-based parenting, generational patterns, and the things we were told as children that hit very differently as adults. If you're an elder millennial unpacking the messages you inherited and deciding which ones deserve to come with you into the next chapter, you're in the right place. ✨ Follow us on Instagram @iymn_podcast and join our little corner of the internet where we say the quiet part out loud.

episode Feelin' Brand New cover

Feelin' Brand New

This episode starts with Good Housekeeping magazines and ends with existential questions about whether we’ve ever been here before. The answer for Amanda is clear, she has not. We’re talking about that feeling of being brand new to life—like everyone else got a manual and you’re just looking around trying to figure out how to exist. Why do some people instinctively know what to do, while others feel like they’re learning everything from scratch? We get into childhood dynamics, different ways of learning, and how those patterns show up in adulthood. Plus a little astrology and of course, a little therapy. If you’ve ever felt like you were just dropped here and expected to figure it out… same, girl. ✨ Follow us on Instagram @iymn_podcast for more “not one unique experience” moments and to be part of the conversation
