Holding Yourself Back Is Exhausting. So Why Do We Keep Doing It?

from Business Like a Mother · host Jen Morris

A short solo episode exploring something I've been exploring - how am I playing small...and why? I get into the podcast cover art I almost didn't change, what 15 years of rejection in the New York theater world actually taught me, and the exhausting reality of holding yourself back to stay safe. Plus: how women are conditioned to stay palatable, the specific moments worth paying attention to in your business, and why community is the thing that actually moves this needle.You should listen if:You've been sitting on an idea, an email, an offer, or a post you haven't sent because you're afraid of what people will thinkYou know you're playing small and can't quite figure out why you keep doing it anywayYou need someone to name the thing out loud so you can finally stop pretending it isn't happeningNew episodes every Thursday. If this got you thinking, leave a five-star review and share it with a fellow renegade who needs to hear it.More: www.renegademotherhood.com
