For seven days, I tracked the voice in my head. I wasn't trying to fix it yet. I just wanted to hear what it was saying, when it spoke up and how it steered my choices.

In this episode I share the results of my 7-Day Inner Voice Audit: the patterns I noticed, the moments it was loudest, and what surprised me about how much it shapes my day.

I also cover what's next. In the next experiment, when the "What would they say?" thought shows up, I'll run it through four questions based on 2 Corinthians 10:5, "take captive every thought," and write down what I do about it.

This podcast is a day-by-day record of my own growth. It's for me, for my son and for the man I'm becoming. If you're listening, I hope it helps you start hearing your own voice more clearly.

What if some of the things holding us back aren't happening around us—but are happening inside our own heads?

In the first episode of Defeating the Inner Voice, I introduce the idea behind this podcast and why I'm starting this journey. I explore the internal dialogue we all experience, how our thoughts can influence our beliefs and actions, and why we often accept our thoughts as facts without questioning them.

I'll also share why this journey is personal for me, how my faith connects to the process, and why I believe awareness has to come before change.

I'm not creating this podcast because I've defeated my inner voice.

I'm creating it because I'm learning how.

Welcome everyone to Defeating The Voice where I share insights on what i do to defeat the monologue I have on a day to day basis to become 1% better each day.
