Fear of Judgment: Rural Ireland & Social Media

"Who does your man think he is?” “Does your one think she’s an influencer or what?”   Phrases like these are still often heard in rural Ireland when people start putting themselves out there online - and for many, the fear of that kind of judgment can be enough to hold them back.   Today we’re joined by life coach Kirsty Phillips, from County Mayo, to talk about the challenges of showing up online when you’re from a small place where everyone knows everyone, and how that can amplify self-doubt and fear of what others might think.   We’ll also discuss why caring less about other people’s opinions can be a powerful mindset shift, and how stepping outside your comfort zone is often where real personal growth begins.
