Description

I'm sure I'm not the only one who has this tendency. When someone compliments your work or tells you they're impressed, I have the instinct to deflect. I might say, "I just got lucky," or "Anyone could have done it."

It's an odd thing—we've worked hard, made the right decisions, and stuck it out when things got hard, but we can't own it.

In this episode, I explore:

• Why deflecting compliments is often rooted in unworthiness, not humility
• The real cost of downplaying your success—and how it keeps you from stepping into bigger opportunities
• What true humility actually looks like (hint: it's not making yourself smaller)
• How owning your wins gives others permission to own theirs

Key Takeaway:
Humility isn't about making yourself smaller. It's about being honest about what you've done and what you've learned. It's acknowledging the work, the decisions, the resilience—and giving yourself credit for showing up when it mattered.
