Do you beat yourself up for avoiding or having trouble doing new or vulnerable things? Do you yell at yourself that, “this isn’t that hard, why am I overcomplicating it?!”

But, a lot of times it IS difficult and you’re NOT overcomplicating and you’re NOT overthinking it. It’s okay to feel that a difficult thing is difficult. Belittling and berating yourself doesn’t help, it actually makes it worse and perpetuates the vicious cycle.

In this episode we discuss:

  • how we often belittle our own feelings and experiences in a way that we would never do to others
  • how beating yourself up for “overcomplicating” things causes more damage
  • how asking “why is my inner voice being mean to me” is a question that can stop the negativity in it’s tracks
  • we all feel like an imposter when trying new and difficult things
