  • Episode 09 - You are allowed to fall apart - How to stop performing and start healing.
    Jun 20 2025

    If you’ve been holding it together for too long—this episode is for you.

    You’re allowed to fall apart. You’re allowed to stop performing. Because real healing doesn’t happen behind a mask.

    In this episode of My Mind First, I’m giving you 3 powerful mindset resets to help you step out of survival mode, stop pretending everything’s fine, and begin to feel human again—without guilt, shame, or fear.

    You’ll learn how to: • Stop chasing perfection and start feeling your truth • Reconnect with your own needs, even when the world’s still spinning • Take practical, gentle steps to begin healing from the inside out

    It’s raw. It’s real. And it’s here to remind you: You’re not broken—you’re rebuilding.

  • Episode 08 - You're Not who they Told You You were.
    Jun 17 2025

    You’ve been told stories about yourself your whole life — some loud, some silent. Some came from parents, teachers, partners, even society. But here’s the truth: most of those stories were never yours to carry.

    In this episode, I’m inviting you to break the false identity you’ve been handed — and finally meet the real you beneath it all. We’ll talk about how other people’s labels can trap you, how to begin seeing yourself differently, and why it’s time to rewrite the story in your own voice.

    This one’s for anyone who’s ever felt invisible, misjudged, or boxed in.

    You’re not broken. You’re just becoming.

    Let’s walk it together.

    🧠 What You’ll Get: • A raw mindset shift about identity and worth • A physical reinforcement moment to lock it in • A mission-driven reminder that it’s never too late to evolve

    📢 Push the Positive. Drop the Negative. 🎧 This is My Mind First — with Paul Cotton.

  • Episode 07 - You’re Ready. Stop Hiding. How to Build Confidence by Showing Up.
    May 25 2025

    Feel like you’re not ready? Still waiting for the right moment, the right energy, the right version of you to show up? Here’s the truth — you’re not stuck because you’re unprepared. You’re stuck because you’re still hiding.

    In this episode of My Mind First, Paul Cotton tears the mask off the most common lie that holds us back: “I’m not ready.” You’ll learn why confidence doesn’t come before action — it comes from it. Backed by real neuroscience, lived experience, and emotional fire, this 10-minute reset will help you: • Understand the psychology of self-sabotage and invisibility • Shift from perfection to presence • Rebuild belief through visible, physical action • Lock in the moment with a body-based step that changes your state • Stop waiting, and start showing up — today

    If you’ve ever felt like you were almost ready to become who you really are — this is your moment.

    This is the episode that moves you. If you let it.
