Let’s have a real chat about something we all deal with: those nagging thoughts, fears, or even people that just hang out in our heads, rent-free. 🏡 You know what I’m talking about—the ones that drain your energy, kill your vibe, and make it hard to focus on the good stuff.
Shane Krider’s amazing three-part Facebook Live series tackled this head-on, and let me tell you, it’s a total game-changer. If you haven’t watched it yet, head over to the Prosperity of Life Facebook page and dive in. But first, let’s break it all down together. 🚀
Episode 1: What’s Taking Up Space?
First things first: figuring out what’s living rent-free in your head. And surprise, it’s not always a person! 🚫 It could be circumstances, your own fears, or that constant stream of monkey chatter that won’t shut up. 🐵 Any of these can chew up your mental bandwidth—the same bandwidth you need to grow, crush your goals, and live your best life.
Here’s how you start identifying the squatters:
Is there someone who’s wronged you and you just can’t stop replaying it? 🤔
Do you feel stuck on that one embarrassing moment or failure? 😑
Are there fears or doubts whispering “You’re not good enough” every time you try something new? 🙈
To go straight to Episode 1 of How To Stop Living Rent Free In Your Head
We’ve all been there. At one point, we were unstoppable—so full of energy and drive. Then, life happens. We take a hit, or maybe a few hits, and suddenly our confidence takes a backseat. ⚡️ The worst part? We let these squatters shift our focus from what we can control to what’s out of our hands. Shane calls this moving our locus of control from internal to external, and it’s a major reason we feel stuck. Don’t worry, though; Episode 2 dives into how to flip this around.
Episode 2: Reclaiming Control
Here’s where it gets juicy. 🍇 Shane talks about the difference between blaming external stuff and taking personal responsibility. This isn’t about guilt or shame—it’s about power. 💪 When you stop pointing fingers and start taking ownership, you take back control of your life. And let’s be honest, that feels pretty damn good.
One of the exercises Shane recommends is redefining your goals and what success means to you. Think about it:
What’s your big dream? ✨
How do you measure progress? 🔢
Are you seeing the silver linings in tough situations, or just focusing on the negatives? ☁️
It sounds simple, right? But the truth is, most of us miss opportunities because we’re too wrapped up in the drama in our heads. Once you shift your focus to what’s possible and take small, consistent steps toward your goals, you’ll start to feel the weight lift. It’s like cleaning out a messy closet—suddenly, you’ve got room to breathe.

Episode 3: Flying Above the Fray
This is hands down my favorite part. Shane introduces a concept called “Flying Above the Fray,” and it’s all about rising above the noise and chaos that can pull you down. Think of it like being the calm in the storm. ☀️
Here’s how to make it happen:
Stay focused on your values and goals, even when life throws curveballs.
Practice calmness and clarity, especially when things get tough.
Keep your perspective. Not everything deserves your attention or energy.
When you learn to fly above the fray, you’re not just surviving—you’re thriving. 🌟 And the best part? You’ll find yourself enjoying the process again. Remember when chasing your dreams felt exciting instead of stressful? Yeah, it’s like that.

🏡 With Real Estate prices soaring in most countries we need to pay attention who we are renting our space to!! The Real Estate in our mind is a precious commodity sort after by us and others. This 'mindspace' is our Bandwidth, it is up to us to protect and guard it so we are in control of running our own lives and Bandwidth. Shane and Rachel Krider's 3 Part Series on "How to manage the people that live rent free in your head," is a golden gem not to be missed in the current market.
Allowing ourselves to own it. Shane teaches in a way that speaks to the heart. Keeping it simple and allow big shifts to happen. This 3 part series hit home and actionable step to make the shift.
I don’t often comment on posts, podcasts or blogs, but for some reason I feel compelled to comment on Shane and Rach’s shares. 😁😁 It’s not just people, but your thoughts that can occupy valuable mental real estate. We can identify the freeloaders that shouldn’t be there and evict them. Our mind is a tool we can be in charge of. Learning that has been life changing. Loving my eight-year relationship with Shane, Rach and Greg. 🙂
I loved the 3 sessions - and relevant to me, in fact anyone who's had the 'monkey chatter' going on in the past... taking care of it, getting the internal dialogue handled are great skills to adopt in life - whether personally or professionally... is highly recommended. Great to see free livestreams like this on Personal Development - it's an ongoing gift to people from Shane and Rachel...
These renters keep returning and sneaking in through the back door - they're a pesky bunch! There's simply no room for them anymore and they've just got to go to make room for all of the positive affirmations that are in place these days. Thank you Shane, Rachel, and Greg.
