You are not your thoughts. Your thoughts are offered to you mostly by a primitive survival mechanism in your brain. And they're totally optional. You have choice and power in what you think. It's pretty amazing. Instagram: SabrinaPerspectiveDetective Book a coaching session with me: calendly.com

In this one I'm sharing my own experience with resentment and what I've done to self heal, as well as an example of how I'm working to change the set thought pattern (tracks) in my brain. Some key tools: learn to recognize the times you've made yourself a victim, step out of the situation and look at it from a different perspective. Then choose a new story. Gratitude. Always find ways to be grateful. This trick, which isn't a trick at all, never gets old. If you want help looking at a situation ...

"He who takes offense when none is intended is a fool. He who takes offense when offense is intended is a bigger fool." Here we talk about a victim mentality vs sensitivity and kindness. I defend the Dr. Suess Enterprises for discontinuing the publication of the 6 books with racist images, and Kamrah defends freedom of speech. I think we're both right. One of my favorite quotes she shares: “Stop validating your victim mentality. Shake off your self-defeating drama and embrace your innate ability...

Hello! I'm Sabrina de Jong, not a real detective, but someone who is curious about people and the way they view the world. I believe when we can see life from many different perspectives we increase our ability to be more generous and compassionate with others. This show will be full of real, raw and vulnerable conversations to allow us to see into one another's world and views so that we can broaden our perspective and practice less judgement.
