[Intro]

Hey everyone, welcome back to Glowhood Podcast! It's Danielle Maame and I’m so excited you’re here today because we’re diving into a topic that can truly change the way you show up in your life—rewriting your inner narrative and aligning with your purpose through discernment.

Have you ever caught yourself saying things like, “I’m not good enough,” “I’ll never get where I want to be,” or “Nothing ever works out for me”? The way we speak to ourselves shapes our reality. And if your inner dialogue is full of doubt, fear, or negativity, it can pull you out of alignment with who you’re meant to be.

But here’s the good news: you have the power to rewrite your story. You don’t have to be a prisoner of old thoughts and limiting beliefs. You can step into alignment and start making decisions with discernment that lead you toward your purpose.

Before we dive in, take a moment and ask yourself:
 ❓ What’s one negative thought you’ve been telling yourself lately? Write it down or just say it in your mind.

Now, let’s get into this conversation.

[Segment 1: Why Your Inner Narrative Matters]

Let’s start by talking about your inner narrative—the story you tell yourself about who you are and what you’re capable of. It’s that voice in your head that either pushes you forward or holds you back.

Now, let’s make this interactive:
 ❓ When you think about your goals and dreams, what’s the first thing you say to yourself?

• Is it positive and uplifting like, “I can do this”?
• Or is it filled with doubt like, “What if I fail?”

I want you to really think about that because your words have power. What you tell yourself shapes your reality. If your inner dialogue is negative, you’ll start making choices that reflect that belief—playing small, procrastinating, or even sabotaging opportunities.

But the opposite is also true—when you shift your narrative to align with faith, purpose, and possibility, doors begin to open.

[Segment 2: Recognizing When You're Out of Alignment]

Now, let’s talk about alignment. How do you know when you’re out of alignment with your purpose? Here are some signs:

1. You’re constantly doubting yourself – You feel unsure, second-guess every decision, and fear making mistakes.
2. You feel frustrated or stuck – You know there’s more for you, but you don’t know how to access it.
3. You ignore your intuition – You get nudges, but you push them aside out of fear or logic.

Let’s reflect:
❓ Have you ever felt stuck in a situation and later realized you ignored your gut feeling?

This is where discernment comes in. Discernment is your ability to see clearly—to separate what’s for you from what’s not. When you’re in alignment, discernment helps you make decisions with confidence. But when your inner narrative is clouded with fear, you start moving in the wrong direction.

Faith-Based Tie-in:
There’s a scripture that says, "Death and life are in the power of the tongue." (Proverbs 18:21) That means what we speak—even to ourselves—has the power to bring life or destruction.

So, let me ask you this:
 ❓ If your inner thoughts were broadcasted on a loudspeaker, would they inspire you or tear you down?

[Segment 3: How to Rewrite Your Inner Narrative & Realign]

Okay, so we’ve talked about the problem—now let’s get into the solution. How do we rewrite our inner narrative and step back into alignment?

1. Identify the Lies

• What are the limiting beliefs that have been shaping your story?
   ❓ What’s one belief you’ve held onto that you know is holding you back? (Think about it—where did it come from? A past failure? Someone else’s words?)

2. Replace with Truth

• If God, the universe, or your highest self could rewrite your story, what would they say?

Speak affirmations rooted in truth:

• “I am exactly where I need to be.” 
• “Everything meant for me is already aligning.” 
• “I have the wisdom to make the right decisions.”

3. Tune into Alignment

• Spend time in stillness—prayer, journaling, meditation.
• Listen to signs and synchronicities. The right path often reveals itself when you slow down and pay attention.

❓ Have you ever had a moment where things just “clicked” and you realized you were exactly where you were meant to be? What did that feel like?

4. Make Discerned Decisions

• Stop forcing what’s not meant for you. If you have to beg, chase, or shrink yourself to fit, it’s not in alignment.
• Discernment helps you know when to move and when to wait.

❓ What’s something in your life that you’ve been forcing, but deep down you know it’s not aligned?

[Segment 4: Walking in Alignment Daily]

Now that you know how to rewrite your story, how do you keep yourself in alignment? Here are some small daily practices:

1. Check your self-talk – Notice when negative thoughts come up and replace them with affirmations.
2. Journal – Write out your vision and reflect on the thoughts that need to shift.
3. Seek divine guidance – Pray for clarity and trust that the right answers will come.

💡 Final Reflection:
❓ If you could rewrite your story starting today, what would the first sentence be?

Remember: Your story isn’t set in stone. You have the power to rewrite it, to align with your highest purpose, and to walk in discernment every single day.
