Host outlines how the words people consume and inner self‑talk shape energy and clarity, leads a brief silent notice-of-voice exercise, shares facts about thought patterns, and invites the chat to post positive self‑statements.
The episode begins with a song snippet and the host welcoming participants, making introductions and setting a friendly, informal tone for the session.
The speaker offers two consistent reassurances about how viewers may be feeling and explains the Cadre Sphere as a community resource for support and well‑being.
The main topic is introduced: how our inner dialogue and the words we consume shape our energy and clarity. The speaker explains that many inputs are translated through words and highlights self‑talk as a primary source.
Viewers are invited to notice the voice inside their heads during a brief silent exercise, then learn evidence‑based facts: self‑talk is very fast, most thoughts repeat, and we have tens of thousands of daily thoughts.
The host prompts the chat to post positive statements, shares personal examples and encourages sprinkling more uplifting thoughts into daily self‑talk to change its tone and impact.
The speaker reiterates the main statistics about self‑talk, emphasizes realistic expectations (no quick fixes), offers ongoing support through the Cadre Sphere, and closes with a musical sign‑off.
It was a beautiful day Sun made down I heard the radio walk I was driving Trees went by Me and Dale were singing A little runaway I was blind Valerie, how are you doing, my friend? Jules, good morning, good morning. Nikki. How are we, Dream Big? Nice to see y'all today. Maffey. I'll hit the pause right there. A little Tom Petty to play us in on this Wednesday. Yeah, it's a good tune. Running Down a Dream kind of speaks to a week just like this. A week after, you know, a change, a shift. If we spent time together on Sunday morning for Cadre Today, it was one of those big in-between spaces.
Argert, it's nice to see you, my friend, Arberbs. I love y'all's names. Yes, happy hump day indeed. But yeah, this past weekend was the change of a month, the change of an unofficial season. The weather began to say, hey, the world is continuing to move. Which is why I always offer these two reminders. Number one, I hope you're doing great. But if you're not doing great, that's okay too. You have capacity to do, you have capacity to be Rose. whether you're feeling 100% or whether you're feeling 0%.
The second thing you'll always hear on Cadre today is that I'm glad that I'm here. I'm glad that you're here. I know what I know and I care about you. If any time you feel like any of those things are not true, jump back into the Cadre Sphere. If ever you feel like you're not seen, come back to the Cadre Sphere. If you ever feel like you're not cared for, jump back into the Cadre Sphere. If you ever feel like you don't know anything or that you're looking for answers and you don't know where to find them, come right back here.
The Cadre Sphere is this place where professionals and peers knit together resources in order to foster a community that will constantly remind you that there's lots of ways to be well. Today, I want to talk about if it feels like your world is running. If your world is running by and maybe you keep moving faster and faster, but you don't have the energy to do it. You don't have the clarity, you don't have the capacity, you don't have the desire to do it. Well, if we think about what fuels us, you know, how often do we hear things like mind over matter?
What goes on up here is really, really important. Hey Mel, good morning to you too. Y'all, I hope you see all the good energy that's flying into you right now. Whenever you see exclamation points or emojis, that's going to each of you. So what do we fuel our mind with? A lot of the time it's ideas or thoughts or inspirations or art or expression. But all of these things are transferred through the currency of language, of words. Like right now, we're communicating with a lot of things, with expressions, with technology which was created by humans.
But at the end of the day, the thing that all that transfers down to that we translate it through is words. And not only the words that are being said from our mouths or by typing on our fingers, But actually, the most words we consume come from the bucket of self-talk. So I'm gonna be quiet for like five seconds, believe it or not. And in this five seconds, I want you to listen to that voice inside your head. Ready? Three, two, one, listen to it. Okay. Can you hear that voice? Some people are really, really attuned to listening to their self-talk voice, like it's so loud you can't turn it off.
And other people go, What voice are you talking about? Do it again. Listen inside your head when I'm quiet. What do you hear? All right. When you get good at listening to the self-talk in your head, a couple of things start to happen. Number one, you realize that it's very, very fast. Science shows that self-talk moves seven times faster than spoken language. So the voice in your head is really, really fast. And you may think, JC, you speak really, really fast. Yeah, take JC times seven. That's the speed of self-talk in your brain.
Number two, 95% of our thoughts, 95% of the things that have words in them are repeated throughout the day. So if you have a thought right now, there's a 19 in 20 chance that it's going to be repeated at least once throughout the day. And we have about 70,000 thoughts a day. Think about the thoughts that you have in your head. How many of them are anxious or scary or negative or complex? And that's not, oh gosh, I need to stop having negative thoughts. No, no, no, no, no, that's not the name of the game.
The name of the game is acknowledge that you have thoughts, acknowledge the way that your brain, your body works, and then figure out how you can go ahead and maybe put a little bit more good, right? Right now, good morning, Luke, nice to see you, my friend. If we have 70,000 thoughts a day, 95% of the thoughts that we, or 95% of the thoughts that we have in a day are gonna repeat at least once, and that thought moves at a speed of seven times faster than our spoken language, so then it's really, really hard to even know that you're hearing it, it just starts sounding like noise.
there's something you can do, and that is sprinkling in a little bit more positive, a little bit more exciting, a little bit more love. So right now, everybody, can you go ahead and say something in the chat? That would be a positive thought, a positive thought for you, a positive thought for someone else. Go ahead and put in chat right now, a positive thought. I will, share this positive thought while you're typing yours. I didn't think of one, but this is sitting right here. So I got this little disco ball as part of a present along with this little art that says, let joy coexist alongside grief.
I got this from someone who wanted to give us a gift after our dog Hamilton died 10 days ago. I have them right here, this little disco ball and this little art, because I know it's going to keep going boop, boop, boop, boop, boop. So if you hear Luke saying, I'm going to have a great day, guess what? There's a 19 out of 20% chance that that's going to repeat in Luke's head today. Listen to what Andy Mack said, Today will be a good day. There's a 19 out of 20 chance that that thought's going to replay in your brain today.
Things turn out best for those who make the best out of the way things turn out. Mmm, I love that. Because, guess what? It's gonna go ahead and play in your head. Pat yourself on the back today for doing one kind thing. Mmm. Triple yell heart. Mmm. Speak wonder. Mmm. All these things are going to alter the way that your self-talk works. So again, I'm gonna say it again. Because this is a really good reminder as to why you need to think about your self-talk. Number one, self-talk moves seven times faster than spoken language.
I'm enough, I'm enough, I'm enough, Mel Myers. Number two, 95% of the time, a thought replays in your head at least once. So that means negative thoughts replay in your head, positive thoughts replay in your head. And 70,000 thoughts bump through your brain in a day. If the majority of them are left to their own dismay, you may end up going, Why do I feel so cruddy? Maybe because you're living in a really hard world. But guess what? The world is no harder today than it ever has been. And today is as slow as the world is ever going to move.
So if you ever want to experience peace, right now is your opportunity. Y'all, there's no magic pill. There's no quick fix. There's no, here's the problem. If we fix this, everything will go away. No, there isn't that. But there are things we can do, like jump right here into the cadre sphere. Y'all, have a good one. Little Tom Petty to play out. We'll see you tomorrow. Like anything is possible Like anything is possible This is a really good song for today, y'all. Give it a listen. Running down a dream, Tom Petty.
We'll see you later.
