Are you chasing highs?

Mindset has become mainstream, that's for sure. For today's Monday Momentum I am talking about chasing highs, particularly among women, as they seek external validation and emotional validation. I discuss the psychological toll of award culture and the impact it has on peoples sense of self worth, and fear of failure and how it activates the comparison trap. I used to live from the outside in - always (unknowingly) needing external validation and approval instead of from the inside out - deciding what In want and going for it without worrying what people think of me. I outline 3 steps in this episode that you can take to see if you are falling down the rabbit hole of chasing highs and the importance of emotional regulation - as well as the importance of letting your emotions fully peak! Its a really useful chat that I know will help you to immediately shift your mindset. So get it into your ears, while on your coffee break, out for a walk or on your drive home, Thank me later :) Share your thoughts afterwards if you like - virginia@upsherises.ie

Mindset has become mainstream, that's for sure. For today's Monday Momentum I am talking about chasing highs, particularly among women, as they seek external validation and emotional validation.

I discuss the psychological toll of award culture and the impact it has on peoples sense of self worth, and fear of failure and how it activates the comparison trap.

I used to live from the outside in - always (unknowingly) needing  external validation and approval instead of from the inside out - deciding what In want and going for it without worrying what people think of me.

I outline 3 steps in this episode that you can take to see if you are falling down the rabbit hole of chasing highs and the importance of emotional regulation - as well as the importance of letting your emotions fully peak!

Its a really useful chat that I know will help you to immediately shift your mindset. So get it into your ears, while on your coffee break, out for a walk or on your drive home, Thank me later :)
