Most women are very good at giving others grace. And yet, we are very tough on ourselves.
In moments of doubt, we talk to ourselves in a really negative way. Almost as if we’re on a mission to uncover everything that’s wrong with us—especially when we’re going after something big.
But that’s not how we would talk to a friend, is it? So, what if we treated ourselves with the kindness and generosity we give others? What if we started being a best friend to ourselves?
On this episode of Career Confessions, I explain how to counter negative self-talk by being your own best friend, challenging you to be so infectiously positive that nothing stands in your way.
I explore why we take our strengths for granted and diminish our own accomplishments, reminding you that shining a light on your gifts can make a big difference in someone else’s life.
Listen in for insight on reframing the what ifs that hold you back and learn how to take the grace you give others and channel it internally!
