  • 62. Why We Project Our Insecurities Onto Others

    Everyone knows what it's like to have their buttons pushed. When people say or do things that can trigger you to respond with contempt, it can be frustrating and sometimes embarrassing. You may ask yourself "What is wrong with them? Don't they know how (insert critical judgement here) that sounds?" The urge is to simply chalk up the incident as a "them" problem. But if you look deeper, you may discover that your reaction to their behavior was actually triggered by an insecurity that your are subconsciously trying desperately to keep discreetly hidden - even from yourself.

    We project some of our most sensitive yet hidden insecurities and envies onto others as a defense mechanism. In this episode I'll share why we do this and what we can do to break this cycle and begin to process these insecurities and envies in order to free ourselves from their growth-constricting grasps for good.

    Whether we'd like to admit it or not, our experiences and our fears shape our understanding of the world and how we expect it to behave. This is why it can be unexpectedly painful when someone you love, trust and/or look up to suddenly acts in a way that you never expected. You can feel shocked, angry, disappointed, and even betrayed.

    In this episode I will explain why living according to our values and beliefs leaves us particularly vulnerable in certain situations while simultaneously providing us with invaluable insight for further self discovery.

  • 60. 7 Tips to Help You Overcome Self-Destructive Behavior

    Everyone has times in their lives when their best intentions are suddenly at risk of being derailed. However, it's what happens next that is critical. Do you succumb to reacting by doing what will sooth your feelings of discomfort in the moment? Do you overreact and end up taking an action you'll later regret?

    Fortunately, there is another solution. In this episode I will share 7 Tips to help you face, process and overcome bouts with self destructive behavior. I'll share some strategies to help you better prepare for thwarting future self destructive behavioral tendencies as well.


    These 7 Tips are as follows:

    1. Focus on your breath with box breathing techniques

    2. Think of one person who loves you

    3. Think of 3 things you are grateful for in this moment and say them out loud if possible

    4. Think of 1 thing you can acknowledge yourself for in this moment

    5. Ask yourself how true is the negative story you are telling yourself right now

    6. Forgive yourself for having the negative thought

    7. Think of one thing you could do right now to get you back into a positive mindset. Execute


    Implement a forward-looking strategy before negativity strikes again by:

    1. Setting aside personal time for negative thought processing sessions

    2. Looking for patterns linked to times when or places where you feel more prone to succumb to negative thoughts and see what improvements you can make.
