What the heck is Lifestyle Shaming?! Have you ever been pursuing a goal or challenge, and had someone tell you that you are LITERALLY doing it wrong?! Have you ever tried to research your goal, only to find that a hundred "experts" have a hundred "perfect" ways of accomplishing it?! Often, this is just hype to sell you a product or service, but sometimes it is a direct attack on our best efforts to achieve our goals! It belittles our self worth and discourages us from giving something our best shot. Worse yet, it can create a false sense of failure in our minds, because we are inundated with claims that our way is no good, and won't work. This week, we discuss the potential effect this can have on our attempts to succeed, as we seek out some effective strategies for defending ourselves against this unique type of criticism.
