Choose Your Story, Change Your Life

Silence Your Inner Critic and Rewrite Your Life from the Inside Out

By: Kindra Hall

Narrated by: Kindra Hall

Read by the author.

The things we tell ourselves affect how well or poorly our path in life goes. It’s time to flip the script on the internal stories you tell yourself and live life on your terms.

Most of the “self-stories” you tell yourself - the kind of person you say you are and the things you are capable of - are invisible to you because they have become such a part of your everyday mental routine that you don’t even recognize they exist.

Yet, these self-stories influence everything you do, everything you say, and everything you are.

Choose Your Story, Change Your Life will help you take complete control of your self-stories and create the life you’ve always dreamed you’d have. Author Kindra Hall offers up a new window into your psychology, one that travels the distance from the frontiers of neuroscience to the deep inner workings of your thoughts and feelings.

In Choose Your Story, Change Your Life, Kindra will help you:

• Uncover the truth of how you have created the life you have.
• Challenge everything you think you know about how your life has been built.
• Uncover the clear steps you can take to create the life you want.
• Take control of your self-story to become the author of who you are.
• Live your life in a way you never have before.

This eye-opening, but applicable journey will transform you from a passive listener of these limiting, unconscious thoughts to the definitive author of who you are and everything you want to be.

Changing your life is as simple as choosing better stories to tell yourself. If you can change your story, you can change your life.

I'll never look at storytelling the same.

Everything is story. What a novel idea! And the author proves this point by retelling story after story as she makes it clear that your story dictates your life. Listen to this auido if you want to change the internal story you've been living. If it no longer serves you or wonder how to change it, this books teaches you how.

Excellent and well read

Wonderful read and articulated! So true and so helpful to help you slow down and choose your own story.

Best book of this kind

There are a lot of books out there that tell you to rewrite the stories we tell ourselves. This one stands out because the author is an expert in this field. She has degrees in the subject. She has done studies. She works with clients from individuals to high level businesses. She has developed thought out and tested methods for rewriting out stories. It’s also easy to listen to. The treatment of the topics does not feel dry or tedious. She is good at… storytelling! Her voice is upbeat and even when dealing with deep subjects she conveys compassion and positivity. Highly recommend.

Finally an approach to challenging my beliefs

I bought this book solely based on the fact that I loved Kindra's previous book on storytelling (Stories That Stick). While I expected more of Kindra's passionate and insightful teaching through storytelling, I don't think I was prepared to find a toolkit for challenging my beliefs. Kindra, how did you know I was searching for that??

Kindra not only tackles some of our life's most challenging stories, but she (once again) provides a structured way for us to be insightful about these topics and supports them with engaging, real-life, relatable examples (stories!). Inner critic? Me? How did you know I'm an Enneagram Type-One?

After only one time through I already expect this book to become a part of my rotation and one I come back to again and again as I continue to delve into, and re-write, my own stories.

To those who are critical about the length of the book and the necessity of such detailed stories, I propose that it's exactly this level of detail told through relatable stories that make the teachings more memorable. I believe my ability to recall the important aspects she teaches about storytelling directly results from Kindra's ability to teach through engaging storytelling. Highly recommended! Thank you again Kindra!!

Amazing!

Love this book! It’s a must read. We never think about the stories we tell ourselves and how they work against what we say we want. Thank you Kindra…for reminding us to look at and analyze the stories we tell ourselves and for teaching us how to introduce new stories when our old stories are triggered!

She always delivers!

I started this book thinking I wouldn’t learn anything from it that I didn’t already know, but as always, Kindra opened my eyes. The stories that I thought were ‘just who I am and I can’t change them’ suddenly became clear and my perspective immediately shifted. I now catch more of my icebergs than ever before. For that, I am forever grateful.

her stories

I have a lifetime of stories that I finally understand better as a result of this book.

Choosing my stories

it was an enjoyable experience. several case studies and all areas of life. I am excited about the stories that will transport me towards my desired goals.

WOW! Another amazing read that transforms my life

One of my favorite books is Kindra Halls's book Stories that Stick. When I saw this one on pre-order, I didn't hesitate to order it. I didn't even read what it was about because I can't get enough of her work. I am also an author and released my first book in October. Stories that Stick was a transforming read during my writing and the valuable lessons will be applied to my next writings.

I was on my way to a conference and it popped onto my list. I read the whole thing on the trip. WOW! I was not expecting a book that would help rewrite ME. It resonated deeply with some of my struggles with confidence and I will be rereading it more slowly while I implement her suggestions. Where one book helped write my book about the space industry, this one will help write my story about me.

I highly recommend any of her books including this one. Thanks, Kindra!

Enjoyed this book and found it helpful when thinking about ways to chase away negative thoughts/doubts. Cute personal stories made it easy to listen to. A bit repetitive, but worth listening
