KEY TAKEAWAYS

Practice Catch Yourself Thinking to recognize and interrupt negative self-talk.

Use visual or phone reminders (like "CYT") to build self-awareness throughout your day.

Apply the H+E+R+O formula—Halt, Event, Response, Outcome—to regulate emotions and reactions.

Confidence isn't about control—it's about trusting your ability to handle anything life throws at you

BEST MOMENTS

"You're not the kind of person that needs rescuing—you're the one who knows you've got this."
"Every time you pause instead of react, you're strengthening that beautiful muscle called self-control."
"Catch yourself thinking—because your inner critic doesn't get to run the show anymore."
"Be the calm in your own storm and turn it into a bright summer's day, one heroic response at a time."
