#43: Escaping the "not enough" trap with Jack Chivers

from Humaning with Rick Watson · host Rick Watson

Most of us don’t realise how much of our life is built around one quiet belief:“I’m not enough.”In this conversation with Jack Chivers, we unpack the performer pattern - the part of us that learned to earn love, approval and belonging through being impressive, capable or strong.For a while, that strategy works.It builds careers, it builds reputations and it even builds identity.But over time it can also lead to burnout, resentment and relationships built on unsustainable foundations.We explore:Why performing can feel safer than beingHow burnout can be a signal not a weaknessThe link between anger in the body and unspoken pressureThe core belief sitting underneath many of our patternsAnd what changes when we replace self-attack with “that makes sense”This isn’t about becoming a better version of yourself. It’s about noticing the ways you learned to survive… and gently stepping out of the trap of proving your worth.If you’ve ever felt like your value depends on how well you perform, this one’s for you.Jack's website and instagramRick website and instagram
