The Judgment That Never Really Existed: Negativity Bias, Body Image & the 18/40/60 Rule


Listen Later

In this solo episode, I talk about something that’s ruled so many of our lives without us even realizing it: negativity bias.

I share a moment of looking back at old photos - ones where I used to hate how I looked - only to realise I never looked “bad” at all. It wasn’t my body that was the problem… it was the lens I was seeing myself through.

We dive into what negativity bias actually is - why our brains are wired to focus on flaws, threats, and rejection - and how that’s shaped the way we see ourselves, our relationships, and our worth.

From body image to social anxiety to fear of judgment, this episode is a reminder that most of the things we fear… aren’t even real.

And I share the 18/40/60 rule - a concept that might just change how you live your life.

If you've ever held yourself back because you were scared of what people might think, this one’s for you.
