Summary
We first released this episode almost two years ago. But women are still apologizing for their existence and saying sorry way too often. We are still people pleasing and putting ourselves down when we make a mistake. So we thought you should hear this again. Apologizing is a learned behavior and being able to recognize it is the first step towards improving your self confidence. If you feel the need to make other people more comfortable, listen to some things to say instead of sorry. Because you deserve to take up space. In this episode, we help you identify when and why you are unnecessarily apologetic and help you decide if it was truly worthy of an apology. Your brain is listening. So no more harmful language about yourself. Let’s stop being sorry together.
