In this episode of The Inner Space, we explore a quiet pattern that shapes so much of our inner world — the feeling of not being enough.

Often unspoken and unnoticed, inadequacy can quietly influence how we think, feel, create, and relate. It shows up in perfectionism, procrastination, self-doubt, and the constant effort to earn approval or belong.

Together, we unpack how this sense of unworthiness forms, how it affects our mind, body, relationships, and work — and how it can begin to soften.

Drawing from research in psychology and real-life stories, Sriram explores:

• How inadequacy activates our threat response — and narrows our thinking
• Why the inner critic often replaces self-compassion
• The hidden emotional and physical toll of conditional self-worth
• How this pattern shows up in our professional lives, and how to reclaim confidence

This episode includes guided reflections, healing practices, and gentle prompts to begin loosening the grip of “not enough” — and to reconnect with a self-worth that isn’t earned, but remembered.

It’s not about becoming perfect.

It’s about reclaiming the parts of you that already know you are worthy.
