The Kindness Extremist with Shola Richards

3 Uncomfortable Ways to Develop Self-Awareness That Actually Work


Listen Later

Most of us think we know who we are, until a moment of unexpected behavior, defensiveness, or discomfort reveals that something deeper is happening beneath the surface. In this episode, Shola Richards explores why so many of us move through life on autopilot and how a lack of self-awareness quietly shapes our reactions, relationships, and sense of authenticity. 

 

This episode gets into:

• Why you show up as different versions of yourself in different environments

 • What your defensiveness exposes about your identity and insecurities

 • The role of “past self cringe” and how it reveals your growth

 • How unconscious patterns can quietly create harm, even with good intentions


Plus, you'll learn three practical strategies you can start using this week to increase your self-awareness!

 

Listen in to discover the inner patterns shaping your outer world, and how self-awareness can help you create kinder relationships and spaces wherever you go.
