in our first conversation together, i take you on a journey through the pervasive feeling of not being good enough, tracing its roots to childhood conditioning and societal expectations. i emphasise the importance of recognising your inherent worth(!), distinguishing it from self-esteem, which is often tied to external validation. through personal anecdotes and insights, i share my journey of overcoming limiting beliefs and the inner critic, offering practical steps for you to cultivate self-acceptance and liberation from the cycle of comparison and self-doubt.

some takeaways

feeling not good enough is a common experience.

this feeling often stems from childhood conditioning.

society rewards productivity over inherent worth.

self-worth is inherent; self-esteem is performance-based.

high achievers often struggle with feelings of inadequacy.

transforming limiting beliefs requires awareness and compassion.

the inner critic is a protective mechanism, not an enemy.

success without self-worth leads to emptiness.

it's essential to redefine worth beyond achievements.

practical steps can help break the cycle of not enoughness.
