We all do it—spend way too much time thinking about what others might be thinking about us.
It sneaks into our mindset in so many ways:
Fear of judgment
Self-doubt and imposter syndrome
Holding back on goals
Playing small instead of showing up fully
But… We can’t control what anyone else thinks of us. And more importantly, what they think has nothing to do with us.
In this episode, I break down:
The Mind Reading Fallacy – Why we assume we know what others think (but we don’t).
The Reality Check Question – If someone does judge you, does it actually change anything?
How to break free from fear of judgment and start making decisions for YOU.
Real stories from athletes who almost let judgment hold them back—and what happened when they let it go.
If you’re holding back in training, racing, or life because of what other people might think—this episode is for you.
Key Takeaways:
You have never and will never control what others think of you. People are already judging you—so why not just live the life you actually want?
You can’t read minds, so stop assuming what others might think and do what matters to you.
Make decisions based on YOUR values, not fear of judgment.
