About this episode
Ashley discusses how self-talk influences our lives and the science behind neuroplasticity.
The way you talk about yourself, your life, and your circumstances is either building you up or breaking you down and most of us aren't even clocking it. In this episode, Ashley breaks down the science behind neuroplasticity, why your words are literally rewiring your brain every single day, and why science and faith have been saying the exact same thing all along.
