#70: How to Be Yourself Beyond the Expectations and Stories You Inherited

Have you ever stopped and asked yourself: is this actually me, or was I taught this?Most of what we believe about ourselves including what we deserve, how we’re supposed to act, what’s possible for us, etc…  didn’t come from us. It came from family, school, workplaces, society, and a thousand small moments where we absorbed other people’s expectations without realizing it.It’s called conditioning. And in this episode, the second in the Summer of the Self series, we’re looking at where it comes from and how to start spotting it in your own life.From money beliefs passed down from parents, to workplace rules about emotions, to the pervasive idea that taking time for yourself as a mother is selfish, conditioning is everywhere. The good news is that awareness is the first step to moving beyond it.This week’s reflection prompt: pick one belief you’ve been carrying for a long time and ask yourself… where did it actually come from?
