How to turn around negative self-talk, fear, and "Whatif Monsters" so you can authentically step into your confidence.

The best way to summarize this episode is by referencing a favorite children's book of ours called, "Jonathan James and the Whatif Monster", by Michelle Nelson-Schmidt. A story of a young boy who finds himself in a myriad of new and uncomfortable situations as he grows up. From trying new foods, to starting a new sport, or simply trying his first high dive jump at the pool. Whenever Jonathan James finds himself here, he hears his "Whatif Monster" asking all kinds of questions to stop him from trying something new: What if it's scary? What if they laugh? What if it's hard? Finally, Jonathan James has some questions of his own: What if they don't? What if it isn't? What then? What if none of that is true?We are all experiencing our own "Whatif Monster" everyday. And beyond that, we are faced with the familiar programming, the constructs, that have been formed from years and years of these installed beliefs of self. Tune into this week's episode to hear how we have faced our own monsters, turned those stories around, and how you can turn negative self-talk and fear into unshakeable confidence.Find out more about Owl & Key and Strategic Planning for Life:www.owlandkey.cowww.owlandkey.co/courselinktr.ee/owlandkeywww.instagram.com/owl_and_key/https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/unlocked/id1576289623
