Listen "I Don't Feel Good Enough… Why Do I Keep Comparing Myself to Other Teachers?"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, I dive into the self-doubt and comparison trap that many educators, both new and experienced, find themselves stuck in. If you've ever wondered why your brain zeroes in on what you're lacking and why you keep comparing yourself to other teachers, this episode is here to help. Here's what you'll learn: Why comparing yourself to others is normal but unhelpful. Practical strategies to shift from 'I can't' to 'I'm learning,' and how to consciously take steps toward confidence and competence. Why focusing on what you're doing well and celebrating your growth can help you rewrite your inner narrative. The importance of bravery in rewriting your story and stepping into your power.
