Why you never feel good enough: the neuroscience of self-worth
from Truly Well · host Nicole Brøgger-Mikkelsen
This is the most personal episode I've ever recorded so far. Because I'm talking about something I've carried my entire life: the feeling of never being good enough. No matter what I achieve, no matter how many people tell me I'm doing great, there's always this quiet voice underneath saying: no you're not. In this episode, I break down what's actually happening in our brain when we feel this way. And then even more importantly, the practical, science-backed ways to change it.I hope this episode is helpful for you wherever you are on this journey right now, and I'm just incredibly grateful you are giving me your time to listen to it. Thank you so much for being here ❤️CHAPTERS00:00 Intro01:50 Negativity Bias03:06 Core Beliefs08:38 Reticular Activating System (RAS)10:00 Confirmation Bias13:30 Finding the Source15:49 Evidence Journaling16:55 Self Deprecating Language20:28 What Does Enough Mean to You?24:24 Our Mental Environment27:19 Patience & Progress
