UFOs, Fishing, And Why Your Bait Is Expectations
Feb 19, 2026 • S03 E13 • 01:01:07
What if the scariest part of your life isn’t a ghost, a glitch, or “AI taking over,” but the labels and expectations you repeat without noticing? We follow a trail from a morning coffee chat and The Island to a conspiracy-tinged documentary and land on a practical truth: words direct attention, attention sets frequency, and frequency trains results. Rename a thing and you can dial fear up or down—UFO to UAP is a public example. Inside your own head, “narcissist,” “always,” and “never” are the same trick, shrinking your field until your body starts shouting what your beliefs refuse to update.
We unpack this with real stories and tangible tools. A client stuck in a hot-flash spiral wasn’t reliving menopause; she was burning energy under a fear template. A business leader couldn’t trust a solid proposal because an old wound kept pattern-matching the wrong face. Then we go simple: a fishing parable where belief is the bait and expectation is the spot. If you only trust one lure in one cove, a single doubt creates split energy and empty nets. Go broader—expect to catch fish, then adjust the bait—and results return. The same move unlocks money, relationships, and health: release rigid outcomes, widen your intent, and let feedback guide the next right action.
Along the way, we challenge the fear of technology by naming the convenience we already embraced: debit cards, smartphones, voice assistants, even medical devices. The pattern is the pattern—spoon-fed change until panic cools. The antidote is inner maintenance. Schedule belief updates like software patches. Ask: What template is running? Does it still serve? What’s a more generous expectation I can stand behind today? With practice, awareness gets fast, boundaries get clean, and your script stops looping.
Subscribe, share this with a friend who needs a belief update, and leave a review with one label you’re ready to retire. Your next chapter starts when you choose a better line.
