  EP36 | Practice It Before You Live It

  Aug 12, 20268 min

  You don't control everything that happens. You can practice how you want to show up when it does. Your brain doesn't fully know the difference between doing something and vividly imagining it. That's not a motivational quote — it's neuroscience. And it means you're already rehearsing something in your head, throughout the day, whether you mean to or not. The hard conversation you're dreading. The mistake you keep replaying. The moment with your kids you're bracing for. The question is: is what you're rehearsing helping you, or hurting you? In this episode, Coryne breaks down visualization — the mental skill athletes use before every big moment, and one you're likely already using without realizing it. You'll learn how mental rehearsal engages many of the same neural pathways as physical practice, how it quietly builds real confidence (not the "everything will go perfectly" kind — the "I know how I want to show up" kind), and how Coryne uses it herself as a mom to respond instead of react. This week's MVP Challenge: catch what you're rehearsing, once a day — and start practicing on purpose.

  That’s Just Who I Am… Or Is It?

  Aug 4, 20269 min

  The stories we mistake for facts can become the labels that limit us. Have you ever said, “That’s just who I am”? Maybe you’ve told yourself you’re not a patient person, you’re just anxious, you’re not creative, or you’re simply not good at something. But what if those aren’t facts? What if they’re stories you’ve repeated so often that they started to feel like your identity? This episode started with a message from a Mindlete team member who wrote one sentence I couldn't stop thinking about — and answered it herself. It sent me down a path I didn't expect: not about whether we're capable of change, but about why we convince ourselves we're not. In this episode, I'm breaking down two thinking traps — labeling and overgeneralization — that quietly turn single moments into permanent identities. We'll dig into Carol Dweck's research on fixed vs. growth mindset, what a real growth mindset actually requires (hint: it's not just "trying harder"), and I'll share my own story of the label I carried for years before I let a friend teach me something I'd already decided I couldn't do. You’ll learn how to catch the moments when “I am” becomes “I can’t,” replace identity labels with more accurate stories, and take one small action that creates new evidence for what you're capable of. Because one moment isn’t a life sentence. And an old label shouldn’t get to decide what's possible for you.

  Don’t Start Over. Recommit.

  Jul 21, 20268 min

  Why progress doesn’t require perfection—and how to keep choosing what matters when life changes. Have you ever started working toward a goal, missed a day, hit a setback, or entered a new season of life and convinced yourself you had to start over? In this episode, Coryne explores why the real skill isn’t starting over—it’s recommitting. You'll learn how all-or-nothing thinking can quietly keep us stuck, why perfection isn't required for progress, and how one small step can help you regain momentum. Coryne also shares her own experience stepping away from her business after having kids and how recommitting helped her build something that fit the season of life she was actually in. Because growth isn't about getting everything right the first time. It's about continuing to choose what matters, one step at a time.

  Are Your Goals Aligned With Your Values?

  Jul 14, 202610 min

  Are the goals you're chasing aligned with what matters most to you? We're halfway through the year—the perfect time to pause, reflect, and check your direction. In this episode, Mental Performance Coach Coryne breaks down the difference between values and goals—and why confusing the two can leave us feeling stuck, discouraged, or questioning why we're chasing certain goals in the first place. Using the simple metaphor of a compass and a destination, she shares how your values provide direction even when your goals change, why fulfillment doesn't have to wait until you reach the finish line, and how staying connected to your why builds lasting confidence. Coryne also shares a personal story from a recent 12-week fitness journey, illustrating what it looks like to stay aligned with your values even when the outcome doesn't go exactly as planned. This episode includes a practical challenge to help you identify your top 10 values so you can make decisions, set goals, and live with greater intention. Your values are your compass. Let them guide where you go next.

  Planning Isn’t Progress

  Jul 7, 20267 min

  Have you ever spent so much time planning that you never actually started? In this episode of Everyday MVP, we're talking about one of the biggest reasons we stay stuck: confusing planning with progress. Planning has its place, but it can also become a safe place to hide from fear, uncertainty, and growth. You'll learn why our brains crave certainty, why waiting to feel "ready" keeps us stuck, and why action—not perfection—is what builds confidence. Coryne also shares the story of an actress who thought she had writer's block but discovered it was really fear holding her back. If you've been putting off a project, a difficult conversation, or the next step toward something that matters to you because you're waiting for the perfect time, this episode is for you. Planning isn't progress—action is.
