Listen "how and why we self sabotage + what you can do to prevent it"
Episode Synopsis
Send us a textWelcome back to The Girls Classroom. This week we talk about the quiet destroyer - self sabotage. What undermines our growth, joy, and potential from the inside out, often without us even realising it.• Self-sabotage can be conscious (procrastination, avoidance) or subconscious (self-doubt, perfectionism, fear of success)• It often stems from limiting beliefs formed in childhood: “I’m not good enough,” “If I fail, I’ll be rejected,” or “I don’t deserve this”• We self-sabotage by delaying goals, rejecting healthy love, downplaying our achievements, or staying in comfort zones that feel safe but stifle us• It’s not laziness—it’s protection. The brain tries to keep us safe by avoiding risk, rejection, or emotional exposure• The difference: sabotage says “it’s safer to stay small” while self-worth says “even if I fall, I’ll grow from it”• Rewriting the pattern starts with awareness—naming the fear underneath, being kinder to yourself, and taking action in small, brave doses• The limits we feel often aren’t walls—they’re stories. And we get to rewrite themSupport the showText someone right now and share this episode if you found it helpful.
