from Do You F*cking Mind? · host Alexis Fernandez-Preiksa - Neuroscientist and Mindset Coach
Stop playing small. In this episode of Do You F**ing Mind?*, I break down why so many of us keep setting the bar too low; in relationships, in our careers, and in the standards we hold for ourselves. Using psychology and neuroscience, we explore: Why your brain tricks you into settling for less than you deserve How low standards slowly kill your confidence and self-worth The hidden link between fear, comfort zones, and “just enough” living Practical strategies to raise the bar in love, work, and personal growth If you’ve ever asked yourself, “Am I settling?”, this episode will help you raise your standards, reclaim your confidence, and finally demand the life you actually want.
