The Tinkerbell Effect

In today's episode of Embracing The Gray, Vic and Kels deep dive into how our belief systems and the narratives or stories we tell about ourselves about ourselves can impact our feelings, actions, and results. You'll learn how 'woo' meets science with the Tinkerbell Effect and the Placebo Effect, as well as, how you can use both of these strategies to change the way you see yourself, how you show up for yourself, and the reality you create as a natural byproduct.
