52: Do You Actually Know Yourself? Seven Questions to Find Out.
from (re)Parenting Radio · host Lisa Watson
What if some of the things you've spent your whole life calling your personality are actually patterns you learned along the way?In this episode of (re)Parenting Radio, we're exploring what it really means to know thyself—not your personality type, favorite things, or labels, but the patterns operating underneath your behavior.Why do you interrupt? Rush? Over-explain? People please? Avoid conflict? Struggle to receive help? Need control? Feel uncomfortable when things get quiet?And perhaps most importantly: what happens when you stop judging those reactions and start treating them as information?We'll explore metacognition and self-awareness, why protective childhood adaptations can eventually feel like personality, the difference between information and instruction, how awareness develops from hindsight into real-time choice, and why understanding where a pattern came from isn't about blaming your childhood.I'll also share seven powerful questions for knowing yourself more deeply and identifying the patterns that may still be quietly running your life.Because you cannot consciously change something you cannot see.And once you see it, you don't have to hate it.You can understand it—and choose differently.You're not broken. You're patterned. And patterns can be changed. 🤍Send us Fan MailSupport the showCONNECT WITH LISA WATSONYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@reparent-yourselfTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@reparent.yourselfWebsite: lisa-watson.comLinkedIn: watsonlisakInstagram: @reparentyourselfFREE RESOURCES1.
