Do you struggle to believe you are good enough? If so, you are certainly not alone. This belief seems pervasive among women and difficult to change. In this episode I explore how easily we can inadvertently reinforce this belief when we are tipped and the dangers and disadvantages of doing so.

While intervening when tipped can be challenging, preparing ahead of time can give us a better chance of not reinforcing a belief we are hoping to change.

In this episode I explore how uncertainty—whether resulting from being tipped from fear, overwhelm, relationships, or other triggers can lead to convictions or beliefs that feel factual and that lack the perspective and the critical thinking only possible when our whole brain is online.

I share examples from my own life and explore how this type of conviction puts us at personal as well as relational risk and offer suggestions for avoiding the certainty bound to develop in a tipped brain state.

In this episode, I share how my experience of being stuck led me to exploring the definition of inertia and to realize that the everyday use of the word differs substantially from its definition in physics.

If inertia is a law of motion, how can we possibly lack it? And if we can't lack it, how can we use it as a reason to blame ourselves?

Find out if understanding the definition of inertia can help you let go of self-blame and explore how you can use this information to change your direction when you are stuck.
