I'm Not Crazy, Right?

Why Is It So Hard to Trust Your Gut At Work?


Listen Later

Have you ever been totally confident in a decision… until everyone around you started weighing in? Suddenly you're second-guessing yourself, outsourcing your choices to anyone who'll give an opinion, and wondering how you got here.

This week, I'm joined by Fiona Simpson — corporate baddie by day, mindset coach and founder of Reflect Path by night — to talk about one of the most relatable struggles women face at work: losing touch with our own instincts. Enjoy!


We get into:

  • How to tell when you've stopped trusting yourself
  • The difference between helpful external feedback and just... noise
  • Why your gut feeling is never actually gone — it just gets quiet
  • How to build a track record so your coworkers trust your instincts too
  • The "hype file" hack that will change how you approach your annual review
  • The difference between risk and uncertainty (and why most decisions aren't as scary as we think)
  • When quitting your job might be exactly what your gut has been trying to tell you
