In this episode, Colleen explores the powerful intersection of science and spirituality—from dopamine research and environmental design to Michael Singer, Don Miguel Ruiz, and Bruce Lipton. Drawing on both brain science and lived experience, she makes a simple but life-changing point: reality isn’t what’s “out there.” It’s what your brain chooses to notice.

Out of millions of possible inputs, your brain filters just a few—and those choices shape your emotions, your energy, and your life. Truth is not abstract dogma or moral code—it’s the felt sense that opens your heart and mind. When you learn to notice what you’re noticing, you reclaim the power to create a reality that feels expansive, joyful, and true.

🔑 Key Takeaways

• The brain processes 11 million inputs every second but only notices ~40—you get to influence which 40.
  
  

• “Truth” is felt in the body: it opens your heart and creates curiosity, hope, and creativity.
  
  

• The 3D world is neutral; meaning comes from how you interpret and judge it.
  
  

• Your focus works like an algorithm: whatever you attend to, you’ll see more of.
  
  

• Emotions aren’t nuisances—they’re invitations to examine what you’re projecting and receiving.
  
  

• Notice the “newsfeed” in your mind: what stories dominate, and how do they make you feel?
  
  

• By shifting attention toward what expands you, you rewire your lived reality.
