Break the Loop of Self-Deception and Move into Empowered Trust: With Kat Kova, Psychotherapist
In this insightful episode, we're joined by Kat Kova, a registered psychotherapist at Kat Kova Therapy and PhD candidate at York University, for a deep dive into the complexities of mistrust, self-deception, and the importance of self-trust. As we navigate through challenging times, understanding our reactions to mistrust and how they shape our interactions becomes crucial.

From discussing the protective mechanism of dissociation to the nuances of self-deception and the empowerment of self-trust, this episode is a treasure trove of insights for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of human behavior and relationships.
Join us as we uncover:
The evolutionary basis of mistrust and its impact on our perceptions and actions.
The role of dissociation as a protective mechanism and its implications in our relationships.
The fine line between instinctive reactions and rational decision-making.
The power of conversation in breaking unconscious loops and fostering self-trust.
Practical tips for recognizing and nurturing our innate instincts for better decision-making and relationship dynamics.

In this MICRO BOOST episode of "The Conscious Loop," I dive into the profound truth that our thoughts shape our reality. Micro boosts are around 10 minutes and address one concept/or tool that will change your world.
This tool, rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy and widely used by therapists and coaches, reveals how internal experiences, not external events, guide our reactions and outcomes. We explore the sequence of events from a neutral situation to the stories we tell ourselves, and how these narratives trigger emotions and behaviors, ultimately leading to results that often reinforce our initial thoughts. Through real-world examples and insightful guidance, we learn to pause, question our stories, and choose better narratives for more positive outcomes.
Key Takeaways:
Understanding the impact of thoughts on reality.
The process from neutral events to personal stories and resulting behaviors.
Identifying and questioning internal narratives for accuracy.
Strategies for choosing more empowering stories.
The role of emotional reactions in reinforcing our thoughts.
