The Voice That’s “Protecting” You Is Actually Sabotaging You. Why Fear Keeps You Stuck.

from Travel & Transformation

Have you ever felt afraid to do something… but knew you needed to do it anyway?In this episode, I’m sharing a few real experiences from my own life that all come back to one thing. Mindset.From going live on Facebook for the first time, to skydiving, to even just getting out of the house on a cold day. Each of these moments required courage, a shift in thinking, and a willingness to do the uncomfortable thing.I talk about what it feels like to face fear head-on. And how the first time is always the hardest. But once you do it, it gets easier. You build confidence. You start to trust yourself.I also share something we don’t talk about enough. The voice in your head.The loud voice that tells you:“You’re not good enough.”“You don’t know enough.”“Stay where it’s safe.”And the quieter voice that’s trying to guide you forward.How often are we listening to the wrong one?This episode is an invitation to start noticing those voices. To question where they came from. And to ask yourself if they’re actually true. Because sometimes, the very thing that feels like it’s protecting you… is actually holding you back.I also talk about what it means to pivot when things don’t go according to plan. Whether it’s a disrupted schedule or a delayed flight, you always have a choice in how you respond.At the end of the day, you can’t control everything. But you can control how you show up.If there’s something you’ve been afraid to do… maybe this is your sign to try it. Even if it’s just dipping your pinky toe in.TOPICS DISCUSSED:Facing fear and doing the uncomfortable thingOvercoming perfectionism and fear of judgmentWhy confidence comes after taking actionThe “loud” vs. “quiet” voice in your headHow limiting beliefs are formed and reinforcedReframing fear and excitementPivoting when things don’t go as plannedChoosing your response when things are out of your controlBEST MOMENTS:"When you finally do the thing that scares you the first time, each subsequent time becomes easier.""How often is the voice that is trying to protect us really sabotaging our progress?""You came into this world good enough."CONTACT THE HOSTWebsite |  www.thereikihealingcoach.com Instagram | @sophia_i_got_igInstagram | @createlifeyourwayFacebook | www.facebook.com/sophia.e.754LinkedIn | Sophia Elcock Hosted on Acast.
