In this episode, we explore a common yet often private concern for professionals: worrying about what others think. In this episode we explore:

Why We Worry:
1. Social Nature: We’re wired to seek connection and acceptance, but has it gone too far?
2. Low Confidence Cycle: Excessive worry can be a sign of a wider issue within a low confidence cycle.
3. Fear of Rejection: Worry often stems from a fear of social or professional rejection; hear Anna grapple with a recent fear of rejection live.
4. Overestimating Judgement: An interesting research study indicates we tend to overestimate how harshly others judge us!

How to Stop:
1. Identify Patterns: Take The Confidence Assessment to see if this is part of a larger issue.
2. Verbalise: Acknowledge your actual fear to get understanding and perspective.
3. It’s Not You, It’s Me: Determine if your worries are theirs, or yours?
4. Cut The Crap: Find out how one client used a daily limit on how much she’d worry, helping her break the habit!
