  • Five key steps to retrain your brain to think on purpose.


Welcome to another episode of the Women in the Middle podcast!

Learning to think on purpose can change your life, both now and in the future. It’s a skill that you can learn how to do, but it will take practice to maximize your effort.

Thinking on purpose will retrain your brain. Your brain isn’t used to thinking this way. Most of us think on autopilot; this means that the thoughts we think are habitual, unplanned and unsupervised.

The result of unsupervised thinking is your emotional well-being is at stake because your thoughts actually create your feelings. The way you feel drives what you do as a result. And what you do creates the results that you have in your life. So, it makes sense then that the more you’re intentional, the better chance you have at creating your life on purpose. That’s what it means to be more intentional. This is a critical piece of the puzzle when it comes to regret-proofing your life!
