Not everything we react to is what’s actually happening. Often, we’re responding to our perception, shaped by memory, belief, conditioning, and emotion.

In Episode 16 of Catalyze Your Self, we explore how clarity begins when we learn to see through the filters we carry. Filters that once protected us, served us, helped us interpret a complex world, but now may be distorting what’s real.

This episode isn’t about judging our patterns. It’s about gently noticing the space between stimulus and story. Between what happened… and what we make it mean.

And that’s where the full rhythm of The SIRE Model™ becomes essential.

◊ Self-Awareness helps us notice the filter.

◊ HALT invites us to pause.

◊ RISE stabilizes our internal landscape.

◊ SHIFT opens the possibility for new choices.

◊ Self-Reflection integrates the entire experience, so perception becomes clearer over time.

Whether you’re navigating relational tension, inner doubt, or leadership moments that demand steadiness, this episode will meet you with compassion, and offer you a way to return to clarity without abandoning your humanity.
