Hey Best Friend with Dr. Britt
50- Feedback is the Breakfast of Champions

Let’s talk about the F word… feedback. Most people avoid it. But champions? They eat it for breakfast. In this episode, Dr. Britt breaks down why feedback is one of the most powerful tools for growth, how to receive it without spiraling, and how to actually use it to become the version of you you’re meant to be. Because real growth? Often starts with something that stings a little.

If you’ve ever struggled with feeling attacked, taking things personally, or getting defensive when someone gives you feedback—this one’s for you.


In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

💡 Why feedback is not rejection—it's refinement
💡 How to reframe feedback from threat to tool
💡 Why NLP, Stoic wisdom, and Positive Psychology all encourage feedback as a growth strategy
💡 How to regulate your nervous system so you can receive instead of react
💡 Why feedback is data, not a verdict
💡 How to use the "filter and keep" method to discern what’s helpful vs. what to release
💡 What to do when the wrapping paper is ugly, but the message is gold


Reflection Questions:

  1. What is your default response when someone gives you feedback—curiosity or defense?
  2. Whose feedback do you fear the most, and what does that reveal about your story of worth?
  3. When was the last time you asked for feedback—and what did it teach you?
  4. What piece of feedback have you received that is still shaping you today?
  5. If you truly believed that feedback was a gift—even when it stings—how would your life look different?


Next Steps:

👉 Want to become more emotionally resilient and less reactive to feedback? You might be carrying unresolved emotional baggage.

Book a breakthrough session and clear out what’s blocking you from rising to your next level.

49- Create Your Identity

Hey bestie—have you ever looked around your life and thought, “Is this even me?” Like you’re playing a part in someone else’s script, wearing roles and labels that don’t quite fit? Today’s episode is all about identity—the messy, evolving, powerful core of who you really are beneath the roles, trauma, expectations, and pressure to be perfect. This conversation is the foundation for transformation, and it’s so important, Dr. Britt made it the first chapter of her book.

Whether you’ve been stuck in patterns that no longer serve you or you’re ready to step into the most aligned version of yourself, this episode will walk you through the importance of identity, what it truly is (and isn’t), and practical steps to reauthor your story from the inside out.

You don’t have to stay who you’ve always been—and after today’s conversation, you’ll know exactly how to start changing from the identity level out.


🧠 Thought-Provoking Questions:

  1. Whose voice have I been listening to when it comes to who I’m “supposed” to be?
  2. What story have I been telling about my identity—and is it one I actually want to keep?
  3. What beliefs about myself are no longer serving me and need to be rewritten?
  4. What would it feel like to live fully in alignment with my core values and identity?
  5. What action can I take today that aligns with the identity I’m choosing to step into?


💛 Final Takeaway:

Your identity isn’t found—it’s created. You’re not stuck. You’re not broken. You’re not behind. You’re just becoming. And when you start intentionally choosing who you are, the rest of your life will shift in response. So stop living in reaction and start living in alignment with who you were actually meant to be.

Hey Best Friend with Dr. Britt
48- Overcoming People-Pleasing: Learning to Say No with Confidence

🔥 Episode Summary:

How many times have you said yes when everything in you wanted to say no?
In this powerful episode, Dr. Britt unpacks what’s really behind people-pleasing—spoiler alert: it’s not kindness, it’s often fear. She explores the psychology behind the pattern, including how NLP, MER, and stoicism help us identify the root causes, rewrite our responses, and reclaim our power to say no with confidence and calm.


💡 What You’ll Learn:

  • Why people-pleasing is a strategy, not your identity
  • The difference between kindness and self-abandonment
  • How unresolved guilt, fear, and limiting beliefs drive the need to say yes
  • Tools from NLP, MER, and positive psychology to break the pattern
  • How to visualize and future-pace a more aligned, confident version of you
  • What it really means to say no—and why it’s one of the kindest things you can do


🔁 Key Takeaways:

  • Saying yes to everyone else at the expense of yourself is not kindness—it’s self-abandonment
  • People-pleasing is usually rooted in unresolved emotional baggage (like fear of rejection or guilt)
  • Your beliefs (“If I say no, they’ll leave… I must be useful to be loved…”) shape your behaviors
  • Releasing that baggage allows you to create space for aligned choices
  • Visualization and language re-pattern your mind to embrace boundaries with strength and clarity



📝 Reflection Questions:

  1. What am I afraid will happen if I say no?
  2. Where in my life have I been overextending myself to avoid rejection or guilt?
  3. What belief am I reinforcing when I say yes out of fear?
  4. What would be different if I believed my boundaries were a form of love?
  5. What’s one small “no” I can practice this week to honor myself?

47- When Things Don't Go as Planned

You made a plan. Life said… nope.


Whether it's your healing, your family, your timeline, or your dreams—when life takes a hard left turn, it can feel like you lost the script. But friend, that doesn’t mean the story is over.


In this episode, Dr. Britt gets personal and practical about how to:

  • Reclaim your power when things fall apart
  • Stop making meaning that keeps you stuck
  • Anchor into what you can control
  • Grieve what was and move toward what’s next
  • Use Stoicism, Positive Psychology & NLP to create peace in the pivot

You’ll also hear about her own real-life detour, how she processed it, and the tools she used to reframe, re-author, and rise.


🔄 Big takeaways:

  • The plan may change—but your power doesn’t have to.
  • Emotions are meant to be felt, not buried.
  • Grieve the loss—but don’t build your home in disappointment.
  • Reframe the moment. Retell the story. Rewrite the future.
  • You are not behind. You’re becoming.


🖋 Journal/Reflection Questions:

  1. What plan or expectation didn’t go the way I hoped—and what do I need to release?
  2. How do I typically respond to disappointment, and is that response serving me?
  3. What belief am I carrying right now that might not be true?
  4. What would it look like to trust the process—even here?
  5. What is one empowered action I can take today, even if it’s small?


💬 Final reminder:

This isn’t the end of the road—it’s a new route. Share with a friend who you know needs to hear this!
If you’re ready to release the emotional weight of your detour and step into what’s next, let’s do a breakthrough session. You’re not stuck. You’re just becoming. 💛

46- What if you could choose?

What if you’re not stuck—just forgetting that you have a choice?

In this episode, Dr. Britt breaks down the power of choice through the lens of positive psychology, NLP, and stoicism, reminding you that you may not control everything, but you always control your response.

From language patterns to limiting beliefs, this episode is your reminder that healing, growth, and identity are built on tiny, intentional choices. You can rewrite the story—starting today.


💡 Key Takeaways

  • Choice is your superpower—your attitude + effort are always in your control.
  • “I can’t” and “this is just how I am” are signs of unconscious programming.
  • Language reveals beliefs—and beliefs shape behavior.
  • Use pattern interrupts, mental rehearsal, and aligned action to rewire your story.
  • You don’t have to feel ready—you just have to choose.

Hey Best Friend with Dr. Britt
45- It’s Time for a New Story: You Can Re-Author Your Life

Have you ever caught yourself saying, "This is just how I am," or "My life will never get better"? In this powerful episode, Dr. Britt invites you to challenge that narrative and introduces the life-changing concept of Re-Authoring Your Story. Through the lens of positive psychology, NLP, and Hope Theory, you'll learn how to rewrite the scripts that no longer serve you and create a life filled with strength, joy, and purpose. It's not about having a perfect past—it's about choosing to create a hopeful future.


💡 In this episode, we talk about:

  • Why your narrative = your identity—and how that shapes your beliefs, behaviors, and even what your brain looks for
  • How Hope Theory (Snyder, 1994) helps you reframe your life through:
    • 🎯 Goals
    • 💪 Agency
    • 🧭 Pathways
  • How to identify the old script you’re stuck in—and whether it’s even yours
  • What positive psychology has to say about rewriting our stories with strength, growth, and meaning
  • How unprocessed emotions become the fuel for limiting beliefs—and how you can release them
  • The power of language, your inner coach, and simple shifts that lead to major life changes
  • How to write a new story using tools from NLP, MER, and the science of meaning-making


✨ Your New Story Formula:

"I used to believe ____, but now I know ____. So I choose to live as the kind of woman who ____."

Example:

"I used to believe I had to be perfect to be loved. But now I know love isn't earned by performance—it's received in presence. So I choose to live as the kind of woman who brings her full self to the table."



💭 Reflect & Reauthor:

  1. What story have I been living in that no longer fits who I’m becoming?
  2. What belief or emotion is fueling this story—and where did it begin?
  3. What strength did I use to survive that chapter, and what does it say about me?
  4. What would my life look like if I believed something different?
  5. What bold or simple action could I take today that reflects my new story?


📌 Take It Deeper:

  3. What belief might be hiding underneath my sabotage? Where did it come from?

✨ The Science of Gratitude – Studies show that gratitude lowers depression, anxiety, and even PTSD while improving relationships, trust, and emotional resilience.
✨ How to Practice Gratitude Daily – Simple but powerful techniques like gratitude lists, meditation, reframing challenges, and behavioral expressions of thankfulness.
✨ The Link Between Gratitude & Sleep – Negative thoughts before bed lead to poor sleep, but gratitude rewires your brain for better rest and a happier mindset.

Powerful Reflection Questions:

2️⃣ How has my mindset about gratitude been shaped by my past experiences?
3️⃣ What is one difficult situation in my life that I can try reframing with gratitude?

38- The Art of Not Getting Offended

In this episode, Dr. Britt breaks down a topic that affects all of us—offense. Have you ever found yourself instantly irritated, frustrated, or hurt by something someone said or did? Maybe it was a comment, a look, or just being left out of something. Offense can feel automatic, but here’s the truth—offense is optional.

When you stop taking things personally, you step into a level of emotional freedom that most people never experience. In this episode, Dr. Britt explores:
✅ Why offense affects you more than you realize (hint: it’s rewiring your brain!)
✅ What offense actually is—a perceived hurt, not always reality
✅ How to stop taking things personally and handle offense like a pro
✅ How your unconscious mind reinforces offense (and how to stop it)
✅ The power of reframing, asking better questions, and choosing a higher perspective

Because, bestie, life is way too short to collect offenses like they’re trophies.


Reflection Questions:

📝 What types of situations tend to offend me the most? What does that reveal about me?
📝 How do I typically respond to offense? Do I react, hold onto it, or let it go?
📝 Is there a past unresolved hurt making me more sensitive to certain situations?
📝 What belief do I need to adopt to be less offended and more at peace?
📝 How would my life change if I stopped taking things personally?

37- The Secret Sauce: Your Unconscious Mind

Bestie, today we’re diving into one of the most powerful forces in your life—your unconscious mind. It’s like your secret superpower, running 95% of your daily actions, storing every memory and emotion you’ve ever had, and shaping the way you see yourself and the world.

In this episode, we explore:

  • Why understanding your unconscious mind is crucial for growth and healing.
  • How it organizes memories, creates habits, and stores emotions.
  • How to rewire your unconscious programming to work for you instead of against you.
  • How Biblical principles align with the unconscious mind and how God designed it to serve you.

Your unconscious mind is waiting for direction—so let’s give it the right one!

  1. What unconscious patterns or beliefs might be running my life without me realizing it?
  2. What habits or thought patterns have I repeated so often that they now feel automatic?

34- Ask better questions, get better answers

Hey best friend! 💛 Have you ever caught yourself asking Why is this happening to me? or Why can’t I figure this out? 

Those kinds of questions can trap us in negativity and self-doubt. But what if I told you that a simple shift in the way you ask questions could completely transform your mindset, relationships, and success?

In today’s episode, we’re diving deep into the power of asking better questions to get better answers. Whether it’s self-reflection, improving communication with others, or breaking free from limiting beliefs, the questions you ask shape the quality of your life.

 

We’ll explore how to:
✅ Reframe self-talk and avoid disempowering “why” questions
✅ Ask powerful questions that unlock solutions and possibility
✅ Improve your relationships with deeper, more meaningful questions
✅ Use NLP techniques like the Milton Model & Meta Model to shift perspectives
✅ Harness the science behind how questions literally rewire your brain

 

So grab your favorite drink ☕ and let’s dive in!

 

Reflection Questions:

What is one disempowering question you often ask yourself? How can you reframe it? How can you ask better questions in your relationships to foster deeper connections? What’s one question you can ask yourself today to focus on solutions instead of problems?

 

Your Action Steps This Week:

1)        Reframe One Negative Question – Identify a question you often ask that disempowers you. Flip it into a more empowering “what” or “how” question.

2)        Practice Asking Deeper Questions in Your Relationships – Challenge yourself to replace surface-level small talk with meaningful, curiosity-driven questions.

33- Overcoming Burnout and Finding Balance

In this empowering episode, Dr. Britt dives into the pervasive issue of burnout—why it happens, how it affects us, and most importantly, how to overcome it. Sharing personal stories of her own struggles with burnout, Dr. Britt provides practical strategies and mindset shifts to help you create a life where rest and fulfillment are not luxuries but necessities. Whether you're a high achiever juggling countless responsibilities or a parent trying to do it all, this episode will give you the tools to find balance, reclaim your energy, and live more intentionally.

 

Key Takeaways:

Burnout Isn’t a Personal Failing: It’s a sign that something in your life needs to change. Rest is Productive: Embrace rest as an essential part of your well-being, not a luxury. Balance is a Practice, Not a Destination: Life may never feel perfectly balanced, but you can intentionally prioritize what matters most. Say No to Good, Yes to Best: Let go of activities that don’t align with your values or current season. You’re Not Alone: Burnout is common, but with the right support and mindset, you can overcome it.

 

Reflection Questions:

Where in my life am I feeling the most overwhelmed or out of balance? What is one thing I can do to create more space for rest in my life? How can I start setting boundaries that protect my time and energy? What practices or habits bring me true joy and restoration, and how can I make space for them? How can I shift my mindset from doing more to being more present?

 

 

Reflect on the questions above and choose one small action to prioritize today.

 

If you struggle with boundaries, this episode is for you!

32- Femininity Redefined: Embracing Your True Power with The Femininity Doctor

In today’s episode, Dr. Britt is joined by her brilliant and insightful friend, Keli Pitts, also known as The Femininity Doctor. Together, they dive into what it means to reclaim femininity in a world that often prioritizes masculine energy. As a sociologist, feminist scholar, and author, Kelly offers thought-provoking insights into the intersection of femininity, feminism, and family dynamics.

From understanding the roots of true femininity to navigating modern societal pressures, this episode is packed with wisdom for women seeking balance, purpose, and empowerment. You’ll hear practical tips on how to reconnect with your feminine energy, embrace strength in softness, and create harmony in your personal and professional life.


Reflection Questions:

How do you need to let femininity reign in your life as a woman? Is this where you’re supposed to be? Is this the creative work God has called you to do? How can you win in the feminine space while still honoring your ambitions?


Key Takeaways:

Femininity is a powerful and essential part of a woman’s design. Embracing it does not diminish ambition but enhances it. Asking yourself if you’re aligned with your purpose can help you shift into a more fulfilling and feminine way of living. Family and marriage play pivotal roles in personal happiness and societal strength. You can thrive in both professional and personal spaces when you honor your natural design.
