In this brief conversational short, two speakers discuss the habit of harsh self‑talk and its roots. Speaker A emphasizes the importance of honest self‑reflection on missed opportunities or mistakes without self‑blame. Speaker B expands on this by urging listeners to examine where brutal inner dialogue originates—often from family‑of‑origin influences—and to question whether that voice truly belongs to them. He challenges the audience to honor loved ones in healthier ways and proposes a light‑hearted coping strategy: playing reggae music, which he believes can lift mood and counter depression. The overall message encourages self‑compassion, awareness of inherited negative self‑talk, and experimenting with uplifting activities.

Maybe it's a failed business agreement. Maybe it's a failed relationship. Maybe it's just an argument that could have otherwise been avoided or money that didn't need to get spent. Correct. But that's such a good point of reflecting on what didn't I see or what did I miss and being honest and vulnerable enough with ourselves to have that conversation. That's fantastic.
Yeah. And I think that like you, you're spot on with what you're saying as far as like there doesn't need to be a reason to extra beat up yourself. Like that's not what we're looking for. That's not the purpose of, of the lens that I'm trying to share. Those of us out there who are listening listening to this who do have that self, you know, that really brutal self-talk, right? That's something to go figure out. Like, where is that coming from? And is that even my voice? Who did I inherit that from? And where did I inherit that from, right? A lot of times it's family of origin stuff, right? It's a parent or a grandparent in that regard. And I would challenge you to find another way to honor and show them love instead of having to do it that way, right? I have a going theory that you can't play reggae music and stay depressed. I think that's virtually impossible. So I'd be willing to test that there.
