Ep. 80 | How to Stop Giving Away Credit for Your Own Wins

from The Daily Ascent · host Molly Carmel

In today's episode, I'm talking about something a client wrote to me that made me realize how often we give away credit for our own wins.  I share the story of a client who thanked me for "saving her" when she was the one who took the action, and why I wrote back to remind her that she did that, not me.  We'll explore why taking ownership of your wins isn't arrogance - it's how you build self-trust. Question to carry into your day: Where in your life have you been giving away credit for something you actually did - and what would it feel like to own that win as yours?
