Description

Cindy Esliger talks about second guessing ourselves at work. Are things said to us just annoyances to dismiss or are they things to take seriously? Or are we beginning to think everything is a sign? Cindy wants to address how making career decisions out of fear leaves us susceptible to gaslighting. 

What’s said to us is often neutral but we interpret the words with our own emotions based on past experiences. Cindy notes that this makes us create our own limitations which opens us up to the form of workplace bullying known as gaslighting. We question our ability to do the job that we know we are more than capable of doing. 

Cindy advises us to maintain a true, balanced, compassionate view of ourselves. She offers three steps to shifting our mindset: 1) notice our subconscious programming, 2) increase our awareness, 3) create a new belief system. She explores each of these in depth and shares stories from her career that relate in a powerful way. Cindy urges us to remember that we are not someone else’s opinion of us.
