Chapter 1 - Know Your Co-ordinates

Episode notes

Hello there! In this episode, I read Chapter 1: Know Your Co-ordinates from my bestselling book, Inner Brilliance · Outer Shine: 10 Antidotes to Imposter Syndrome, Workaholism & Stress . I’m sharing all 10 chapters from my book as a way to support your summer growth and personal development. The goal of this chapter is to help you establish where you are right now, so you can start reflecting on what you’d like to change. In this episode, we’ll explore: How we get stuck in Groundhog Day with our stress patterns What burnout and stress really are Why moving beyond stress, workaholism, and imposter syndrome is an inside job - we have to take charge of our ‘ship’ Why reassurance-seeking doesn’t work to make us feel good enough How we shrink our space and limit ourselves What imposter syndrome is and how it connects to not feeling good enough Why denial only prolongs our suffering and how to break free I have permission from my publisher to read most of my book aloud. If you'd like to access the parts I’ve omitted, you can download them from my Workbook and Journal, which serves as a self-coaching model, available here: Here’s to your shining!
