Choose Happy with Marie – Overthinking, Self-Doubt, People-Pleasing, Trust Your Gut & Self-Trust

152 | The Habit of Saying Yes Before You’ve Checked in With Yourself

Tue, 09 Jun 2026 05:55:00 -0400

There’s a moment that happens every day that most people never really notice.

Someone asks you something — a favor, a plan, a request — and before you’ve even checked in with yourself, you’ve already said yes.

Not because it feels aligned. Not because you’ve chosen it. But because it’s faster, easier, and keeps everything moving smoothly.

And over time, these small moments start to add up in ways you don’t immediately see. You can end up feeling tired, stretched, or slightly disconnected from yourself — without being able to point to one clear reason why.

What’s really happening isn’t about overcommitment. It’s about a pattern of not pausing long enough to include yourself in your own decisions.

In this episode, we slow that moment down and bring awareness to what changes when you begin to stay with yourself before you respond.

Cheers,

Marie

Tue, 02 Jun 2026 05:55:00 -0400

Sometimes the life you want isn’t bigger — it’s quieter. In this episode, we explore what happens when you realize you don’t actually want more intensity, you want more peace, honesty, and space to breathe again.

150 | 3 Small Ways Your Life Changes When You Start Trusting Yourself

Tue, 26 May 2026 05:55:00 -0400

You don’t notice self-trust breaking down in real time. It shows up in overthinking, second-guessing decisions, and replaying conversations even when life looks fine.

In this episode, we explore 3 small ways your life changes when you start trusting yourself again: less mental spiraling after decisions, a calmer nervous system, and slowly feeling more like yourself in everyday life.

If you struggle with overthinking or self-doubt, this will help you see what begins to shift when you stay with yourself instead of leaving yourself.

149 | Self-Trust Affirmation for Overthinking & Second-Guessing Yourself

Tue, 19 May 2026 05:55:00 -0400

If you struggle with overthinking, self-doubt, second-guessing yourself, or replaying conversations in your head, you’re not alone.

In this episode, we’re looking at what’s happening when overthinking takes over and you start to spiral after simple everyday moments.

Because most of the time, it’s not that you don’t know what to do. It’s that you stop trusting yourself enough to stay with what you already know.

We also explore the subtle moment where you begin to leave yourself in your thinking and how that disconnect quietly fuels self-doubt and overthinking.

And I share the self-trust affirmation from the Choose Happy affirmation card deck that helps bring you back to yourself in those exact moments.

Cheers,
Marie

146 | Why You’re Still Second-Guessing Yourself (Even When You Know What You Want)

Tue, 28 Apr 2026 05:55:00 -0400

You’ve been doing the work … trying to overthink less, notice your thoughts, and trust yourself more … yet you still find yourself second-guessing almost every decision. From small everyday choices to bigger life direction moments, the pattern looks the same: hesitation, mental spiraling, and waiting to feel certain before you move.

In this episode, we explore why self-trust still feels out of reach even when you’re actively working on it, and how the real issue isn’t lack of clarity. It’s the habit of not trusting yourself until you feel sure.

You’ll learn why overthinking and indecision persist, what’s actually happening underneath self-doubt, and how to start building self-trust in real time through the way you choose and support yourself afterward.

If you’ve been stuck in cycles of second-guessing yourself and want to shift into clearer, more confident decision-making, this episode will help you see the pattern differently—and begin changing it.

Come on in, it’s time to choose your happy life.

Marie

145 | Why You Keep Letting Yourself Down (Even When You Really Want to Change)

Tue, 21 Apr 2026 05:55:00 -0400

Most people think they struggle with follow-through because they’re not disciplined enough, not motivated enough, or just need a better system. But that’s not actually what’s going on.

What’s really happening is a breakdown in self-trust that builds every time you don’t follow through on what you said mattered.

And if you miss this, you don’t just struggle with goals. You start to doubt yourself more and more, even when you do want things to change.

In this episode, we explore:

Why follow-through breaks down even when you’re capable and motivated
The hidden pattern that quietly affects self-trust
The small shift that starts rebuilding trust with yourself again

Every time you choose differently, you’re choosing your happy life.

Marie

98 | 3 Steps to Stop Feeling Guilty about Spending Money on Yourself When Negative Thoughts are Standing in Your Way

Tue, 18 Mar 2025 05:55:00 -0400

Hi!

Have you said to yourself lately, “I would really like to do ‘x’ “ but, your negative thoughts tells you not to? Why do we feel guilty when we spend on ourselves? Not all of us feel this way but for many of us, we’ve got that negative self-talk – a voice – a script that is on constant repeat - perhaps from your mother, grandmother, partner, etc, that tells us we shouldn’t spend on ourself.

In today’s show, I’m sharing with you my latest adventure as a solo traveler to an overnight destination spa a few hours from where I live. It sounds wonderful, doesn’t it? It was. But for me to get there, I had some negative self-talk that I had to overcome.

If you too struggle with spending on you, you’re in the right place. We are worthy of spending money that we earn on things that really matter to us. And I’ve got a positive affirmation you can use to help you reframe those thoughts and get you, finally taking action and doing the things you really want to do.

Let’s do this, it’s time to choose happy!

Cheers,

Marie

Hello,

Another day goes by, you’re lying in bed, and your mind starts thinking about everything you did and didn’t do – especially the didn’t do. Why do those stick out? Perhaps on your ‘didn’t do’ list, you didn’t get to do anything that would make you happy today. Instead, you responded to everyone’s request of you, and you couldn’t even take your lunch break (sigh). So many of us are just getting by. That’s not living a happy life. In today’s show, I’m sharing with you three reasons why you’re not living a happy life today. Yes, there are many reasons, but today, I’m going to focus on three that I hear a lot of from members of the show.

👉 TODAY’S QUOTE: “All big things come from small beginnings. The seed of every habit is a single, tiny decision. But as that decision is repeated, a habit sprouts and grows stronger. Roots entrench themselves and branches grow. The task of breaking a bad habit is like uprooting a powerful oak within us. And the task of building a good habit is like cultivating a delicate flower one day at a time.” (James Clear)

Hello,

Are you looking for an inspirational book – either for yourself or as a gift (maybe a graduation gift)? I’m sharing with you one of my personal favorite books that I own and have given to both of my kids upon their high school graduation. The Alchemist is a story about following our dreams. The concept of “personal legend” has stayed with me since being introduced to the book several years ago. And, it guides me in living a happy life. I hope this book review will inspire you to pick up the book the next time you’re looking for an inspirational book.

73 | 10 Negative Self Talk Examples that is Stopping You from Living a Happy Life

Tue, 16 Apr 2024 05:55:00 -0400

Hello,

A few weeks ago, I was re-watching the Queen movie on Netflix. And there was a quote said by Freddie Mercury that has stayed with me: “Good thoughts, good words, good deeds. Just like you taught me, papa.” When we have negative thoughts, we are already setting us up for negativity. Thoughts turn into words and then they turn into our actions – how we choose to live our life. In today’s show, I’m sharing with you 10 examples of negative self-talk that I have said myself or, that I’ve heard others say – including our listeners (those that have shared with me). I hope by bringing these words into the open and giving some reflection from a positive perspective can be helpful to you in case you are using these words in your life.

Marie

64 | Break Free from Remembering the Negativity of the Year: Journal Prompts for Self-Reflection ❤️

Tue, 26 Dec 2023 05:55:00 -0500

Hello,

In this week’s show, you will learn how to break free from remembering the negativity of the past year using something I call The Christmas Letter. It’s not the traditional letter that you may do now (or in your past) in which you send out a letter to loved ones with an update on your family. Rather, it’s a letter you write to yourself as you reflect on the year. I’ve been doing this the past few years and it has helped me end the year remembering and giving thanks to the good things that happened (instead of focusing on the negative things). I refuse to let the negativity bias take over my memories! I choose to remember the happy …. What do you choose?

THANK YOU - I am grateful to each and every listener of the show all around the world! Wishing you a beautiful ending to the year and I’ll see you in 2024! ❤️

Cheers,

Marie

46 | Shift Your Money Mindset from Scarcity to Abundance: 3 Tips for Creating a Positive Money Mindset [Money Affirmation] [Money Mindset Series – Part 4 of 4]

Tue, 22 Aug 2023 05:55:00 -0400

Hi! Do you want to know what makes one person successful with money and another not successful? It’s their money mindset.

Every day, we make choices that either move us forward financially or set us back. Do you believe you can live a healthy financial life whereby you spend on what you want and save for what matters you and for your future?

There are too many of us who hit the snooze button when it comes to thinking about our finances and “hope” we will be ready to retire when the time comes to do so. Hoping is not a plan and it is not choosing happy.

In today’s show, I’m sharing with you 3 tips for creating a positive money mindset, including one of the three money affirmations that are in the Choose Happy affirmation card deck.

If you’re ready to change your scarcity mindset to one of abundance, this episode is for you!

This is the final part of the Choose Happy Money Mindset series.

Tue, 15 Aug 2023 05:55:00 -0400

Hi! Do you sometimes feel overwhelmed when you hear the words “budget” and “saving”?

Ever say to yourself: “I’m bad with money.” Or, “I know I should budget, but what’s the point? I’ll never afford “x” … i.e. .a house, car, vacation, etc.”

If any of the above sounds familiar to you, it’s your money mindset and it may be standing in your way of choosing happy for living a healthy financial life.

In today’s training, I’m sharing with you the money affirmation I authored that is in the Choose Happy affirmation card deck that helped me re-write the negative self-talk that was standing in my way of saving for what I really wanted for my future.

It’s time to ditch the negativity that is standing in your way.

In today’s episode, I am inviting you to think about what YOU want for Christmas AND to tell your family. I want you to imagine waking up on Christmas morning and there’s a gift there just for YOU that brings you SO much joy and happiness 🙂.

So, if there’s something on your heart that you really want for Christmas, this is your permission slip to speak up and tell your family.

And if it feels awkward for you to speak up, come listen to the episode 💗.

By making this small change – telling your family what you REALLY want for Christmas – you are choosing happy.

And, I share my top 5 ideas to help you come up with ideas for your list.

Let’s do this girlfriend, let’s write a Christmas wish list! 😊

Cheers,

Marie

06 | What are Affirmations 🤔 and Why Positive Affirmations Do Not Always Work?

Tue, 15 Nov 2022 05:55:00 -0500

Hi!

Now that you’ve gotten a taste of using affirmations – from the last episode (05. Trust Yourself: Tips and Affirmation You Can Use Everyday) and episode #1 (01. You are Worthy of Happiness), today we will briefly review what is a positive affirmation and we will also touch upon when affirmations don’t work.

This episode also contains an affirmation you can use before a job interview.

It’s time to choose happy, no more living on autopilot ✈️.

Cheers,

Marie

“Affirmations are our mental vitamins, providing the supplementary positive thoughts we need to balance the barrage of negative events and thoughts we experience daily.” - Tia Walker
"It's the repetition of affirmations that leads to belief. And once that belief becomes a deep conviction, things begin to happen."- Muhamed Ali

05 | Trust Yourself 💖: Tips and Affirmation You Can Use Everyday

Tue, 08 Nov 2022 05:55:00 -0500

Hello!

In today’s episode, I talk about how we can trust ourselves better, and I share a revelation I had during the COVID-19 pandemic and how it taught me to finally trust myself.

Building trust in yourself is key for improving your self-confidence which in turn can improve your decision-making skills.

Also in this episode, I give you the “Trust Yourself” affirmation from the Choose Happy affirmation card deck, and we say the affirmation together in a heart-centered way.

This is the first time I do this on the show and it truly touched my heart to do this with you 💕.

This positive affirmation for trusting yourself will help build your confidence and empower you as you make decisions for your everyday life.

If you’ve been finding you’re second guessing your decisions – turning to others for their opinions before you even know what YOU want to do – this episode is for you.

It’s time to trust your decisions and re-write negative self-talk standing in your way!

Cheers,

Marie

03 | Design Your Choose Happy Vision Board

Tue, 25 Oct 2022 05:55:00 -0400

In today’s episode, we talk about using a vision board to jump start our thinking of what makes us happy 🙂.

The board gives you a visual reminder of your intentions – in this case – of what makes YOU happy – and that can help influence your daily thoughts and actions that you take in living your life.

This has been a powerful tool in helping me find what makes me happy again. I’m excited to share it with you! 💕

Let’s start uncovering what makes YOU happy!

Cheers,

Marie
