65. Stop living in your head, and follow this simple formula instead
In this mini episode, I’m sharing a little update on where I’ve been, what shifted while I was away, and why I’m leaning fully into the new name of the podcast: No Thanks, Unsubscribe.
This name has become more than a title. It has become my life’s motto.
While I originally took a break to find myself again, I ended up feeling even more lost for a while. But through ritual, reflection, and recommitting to myself again and again, I found my way back into deeper alignment.
In this mini episode, I talk about how easy it is to slide back into old habits, why so many of us are trained to live from our heads instead of our souls, and why I believe the real work is learning how to listen inward.
Because life gets a lot simpler when you stop outsourcing every answer.
The formula is simple:
If my soul says yes, I go in that direction.If it says no, I say: No thanks, unsubscribe.
In this mini episode, I share:
why the podcast name changed
why we need to keep recommitting to ourselves
how living in our heads disconnects us from our truth
why listening to the soul may be the simplest way to rebuild life from the inside out
when the next full episode is coming
TRANSCRIPT
0:00
Hey, hello.
How are you?
I'm back after a little hiatus and losing myself even further.
Even though I took this break to reconnect with myself and then finding myself again, reconnecting with myself.
0:22
I feel like that's maybe our life journey is losing ourself in the shoulds, losing ourselves in the half to losing ourselves in the rules, losing ourselves in what other people tell us we should do.
0:37
You know, we try and start something new, we look to the experts for advice and then we get caught up in the advice and all of that disconnects us from our soul, from our purpose, from Our Calling, from what we know inside.
0:55
Like if we can tune our internal compass, tune into our internal compass.
All the answers are there.
All the answers are there.
And I started doing that like five years ago and it's slow going because you live your whole life or you live the beginning of your life in your head because you're taught as a child to not listen to your own intuition, that you need to listen to the adults in your life, listen to the other people in your life, listen to what you're supposed to do in life.
1:31
So you quiet.
It's like you turn down the volume on your inner wisdom and you turn up the volume on your brain because your brain is what's giving you love and giving you survival because you have to do what the adults are telling you to do.
And if no ones going to tell you that you don't have to do that anymore, then you turn into me, an adult who is following their brain and is learning late in their late 30s, early 40s, how to listen to themselves for the first time in their life.
2:07
Because you hear all these people say, listen to your intuition, follow your gut, listen to your heart.
But if you don't know how to tap into that, how are you going to do that?
You know you're going to be stuck in your head and that's why, well, partly why I started this show through all its iterations, starting off as these Souls Journey soundtrack, turning into the inner sound check and then turning into my delulu life or that delulu life and then my delulu life.
2:44
I don't know.
All of it is in search of authenticity, really.
At the end of the day, I feel like our life's journey is to find listen to ourselves, obviously, like I said, but at the end of the day, listening to yourself is your authenticity.
3:03
It's listening to who you are inside, really.
And so that's why I really resonate with this phrase rebuilding my life from the inside out because I'm connecting with who I am inside and that is reflecting on the outside.
3:25
I've always been someone who advocates for finding the root cause of things like maybe you know this, maybe you don't.
I don't know if I've ever talked about this on the show that I have a certificate in nutritional therapy.
I went through a big part of my diet culture days was learning about all these alternative health strains.
3:49
And at the end of the day, I, I believed that things were being masked.
Like you have a headache, for example, and you take an Advil fine, but why do you have a headache?
What's the reason you have a headache?
The Advil is helping with the pain, but if you can find the root cause of the headache, maybe you can.
4:09
Like, let's say you have a headache because you have shoulder pain.
If you can relieve the the shoulder pain, you don't need the Advil.
So I've always been someone who loves like root cause things and helping the root cause.
And I believe a lot of our misalignment in life is because we're not tuned into who we fucking are.
4:28
We're not tuned into our soul and our soul knows you.
Call it your soul, call it listening to your heart, call it listening to your gut, call it listening to your intuition.
At the end of the day, you're listening to yourself.
I'm just going to say listening to your soul.
If you're listening to your soul, you can't go wrong.
4:45
If you're listening to your brain, you're stuck in your brain.
You can go wrong and I truly believe listening to your soul is the answer.
It gives you your life purpose, it gives you where you're going, it gives you what you need.
It literally gives you everything and you don't need to know why.
I don't know about you, but I often get caught up in the why.
5:04
Like someone hurts you, someone says something hurtful and you get caught up in why.
Like I still get stuck in that a lot of the times.
Like well, why did you say that?
It's like, well, does it really matter?
At the end of the day?
They said it and it was hurtful.
5:19
Maybe they didn't mean it, but it doesn't matter why it happened.
Let's move on.
And I'm not saying dismiss like big pain and stuff.
I'm just saying don't get caught up in the why because I've been there, been there, done that.
5:37
No thanks.
Don't want the T-shirt, don't wanna go back, don't want the souvenir, don't send a postcard.
So as we know, I've always been on this show questioning stuff.
And so this is just a little teaser trailer to kind of let you know that like the show staying the same.
5:56
I'm still tuning into my soul, still tuning into that.
I still believe in my my methods and everything.
I'm just giving you a little update and to let you know that the show is coming back in July 2026.
I am going to have a full length episode on July 7th, Tuesday, July 7th.
6:15
You can look out for that.
This is just a fun little teaser on the way there.
And to show you that I have changed the title you again, because if you've been around for a while, you know that I always say no thanks, unsubscribe.
So why not lean into that, make the show that because like, that's what I talk about anyway.
6:33
I'm unsubscribing from listening to living in my brain.
I'm unsubscribing from doing things just because I was told to do it that way.
I'm unsubscribing from a lot of things in my life and we're exploring those things together on this show.
I'm sharing my journey.
6:48
I'm sharing how you can do it too if you resonate with that.
And basically learning how to listen to myself later in life and letting go of the brain of all of the things that have been implanted in my brain by decades of listening to society, like hearing things.
7:10
You know what?
I'm not going to get into it.
I will tack on the new intro that's already recorded at the end of this and you can hear I talk about the, you know, the things that we all hear growing up and those are the things that keep us stuck.
7:26
Those are the they suck.
They absolutely suck.
I'm so fired up today.
Today is the full moon on June 29th and I did my full moon ritual last night and I've previously said I disliked the word ritual but I'm leaning into it because I looked at the definition and it really applies so I will lean into it.
7:52
It's a ritual.
I cleared things up.
I am so realigned with myself today and I'm so glad because I really felt so sad for a while.
I felt like I had lost myself and I wasn't.
I was reading books for a while.
I haven't really been reading.
8:07
I haven't been doing this show.
I haven't been all the stuff that I did love.
I felt like I lost myself because I backslid into my old life.
And the whole point of this show and the whole point of this empire that I'm building is to help you remove the things that are in your way, like living in your head or carrying around these old beliefs that are not serving you so that you can live your dream life.
8:32
At the end of the day, I want that for you.
I want that for me.
I'm experimenting it.
I'm finding things that work.
These rituals fucking work for me.
And I really believe that recommitting to yourself daily or like regularly, you have to recommit.
8:49
It's so easy to go through your life the way you have been because like how old are you?
You have that many years of experience living some type of way and if you don't want to live that way anymore, you now have 0 years experience living your new way and you have to continuously.
9:10
It's so much work, but it is so worth it at the end to continuously be reminding yourself, this is what I'm working towards.
This is the person I would rather be.
This is who I'm becoming.
And you have to keep winding yourself until that becomes your new habit.
9:26
And I don't know what happened for me, I lived that way for years and then I like stopped.
I don't know.
I don't even know how it happened.
I stopped.
I did my morning meditation every single day, while most days, every single most day.
And I did all that I did.
9:46
I had a nighttime ritual, I had a morning ritual and I did my moon rituals and all that stuff.
And then I just stopped.
And then I started doing the moon rituals again and then I stopped.
And like, we have to be continuously recommitting to our goals.
10:01
And these rituals are ways that I can recommit to myself.
So I'm making a public declaration right now to you.
Thank you, dear listener, for being here.
My public declaration is recommitting to myself right now and recommitting to checking in with myself for everything and not doing things just because the people in my life want to do them.
10:26
And like if someone asked me to do something and my intuition says no, I'm not doing it and I don't care why.
So welcome to the new No Thanks Unsubscribe podcast where I am rebuilding my life from the inside out and questioning everything I was taught along the way and inviting you along for the ride.
10:50
So without further ado, also, I look forward to seeing you at a full length episode next week, a Lesco.
And without further ado, here is the new revamped but same music intro to the all new but very same show that you know and love, just renamed with a new intro to the No Thanks Unsubscribe podcast.
11:17
What if you could answer every question in your life with this simple formula instead of getting stuck in your head overthinking every little thing?
I believe life can be that simple and it's become my motto.
If you want more self-confidence, clarity on your life's purpose, and an easier time manifesting your dreams, this is the show for you.
11:39
Come along with me as I explore what to let go of, what to lean into and how to do it.
I'm your host Carolina.
I'm rebuilding my life using this simple formula.
If my soul says yes, I go in that direction.
If it says no, I say no thanks, Unsubscribe.
