BIG truth moment, friend. I've got some questions for you. Answer honestly please.
Do you ever find yourself thinking things like...
"I can't do that! I would disappoint ______" (fill in the blank with: my parents, my friends, my partner, etc.)
"I wonder what _____ thinks about me" (fill in the blank with: a new friend, an ex, people from high school, a family member, or even a total stranger)
"Will I get judgement or negative feedback if I speak up in this moment?"
"Will people like this photo if I post it?'
Do you ever find yourself consciously or unconsciously trying to change yourself to fit the mold of what OTHER PEOPLE want for you?
I hate to break it to you, but if you said yes to any of the above, you care what people think of you.
The good news is, you are far from alone here. I haven't met a single soul who doesn't care about what others think of them….until they learn otherwise.
Because caring about what others think of us is part of our DNA.
The bad news however is that caring what others think about you is weighing you down. You're likely focused on pleasing others and holding yourself back from being the person you were meant to be. This is costing you precious time, energy and fulfillment in your life.
This unconscious (or conscious) fear of being judged, talked about and unliked by others is primal. We need connection to survive and thrive in our world around us.
However, when does that need for connection go too far? When does that fear start to consume our life and make it miserable? Today on the show you'll find out.
In this throwback episode from my previous podcast, Life Luvers Radio, I interview the incredible Julia Wells about how to stop caring what other people think about you.
Julia is a Women's Business Coach who helps women create and build businesses in their feminine power. In her once popular "Zero Fucks" challenge, she taught women how to live a life where they feel free from the misery of what others think of them. In this Become an Unstoppable Woman episode, she's giving you a taste of how to do that for yourself too.
IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL HEAR:
...And so much more
Not only is this a fun and entertaining episode, but it's oh-so-important (so much so that I am airing it for a second time). Until you care less about what others think of you, creating the life YOU love is going to feel hard, if not damn near impossible.
