(#68) How to stop holding yourself back

from EmpowerHER · host Diana DeBolt

You are holding yourself back. Yeah, I said it. And I need you to hear me out.We reject ourselves before anyone else even gets the chance. We don’t apply for the job, take the next step, or put ourselves out there because we fear rejection. But here’s the truth: we are our own worst enemy.In this episode, we’re talking about the most common ways we hold ourselves back—fear of failure, perfectionism, imposter syndrome, overthinking, people-pleasing, and scarcity mindset. And more importantly, I’ll walk you through the mindset shifts you need to break free.Plus, I’m giving you a journaling exercise to help you start taking action this week.If you’ve ever felt stuck, this episode is for you.
