Episode 123: How to Break the Vicious Cycle of Should-ing On Yourself

Mindset, Podcasts

I hear all the time from my clients, “I should have…” over and over. The truth is we don’t know what we don’t know until we know it. We all have blind windows. So when you start telling yourself you should have done this or that, it’s an opportunity for you to pay attention and look at the stories you’re telling yourself. In this short but sweet episode, I talk about why should-ing on yourself makes no sense and is actually detrimental to you.

2:25 – How should-ing contributes to criticism and self-abuse

5:44 – What to do in the moments when the “shoulds” show up
