Summary
Self-sabotage was the big buzzword a few years back when everyone started to believe that they were to blame for all the things that had gone wrong in their life. And while self-sabotage is definitely a real thing, our understanding of the term is inherently flawed.
Self-sabotage isn’t necessarily a bad thing - and that’s why, in this episode, Kristen is talking about why it’s important for you to understand self-sabotage so that you can begin to move past this behavior and work towards your goals.
Here are a few key points:
- The true definition of self-sabotage
- Why you need to learn to sit with what makes you uncomfortable
- The importance of giving yourself permission to experience rejection
- How harmful rhetoric can sabotage your leadership abilities
- Why self-awareness should become your leadership superpower
With a little understanding and a whole lot of self-compassion, you can take what was once perceived as a negative into something positive. Understanding why your brain goes into ‘sabotage’ mode can help you to navigate through those troubled waters. So the next time you feel like you’re sabotaging your results, take a step back and give yourself a little grace.
