    Why Blame Used to Make Me Feel Like I Didn't Belong | Blame Series – Part 3 

    Ep 142: Have you ever found yourself apologising before you've even decided whether you've done anything wrong? Do you feel responsible for other people's emotions, explain yourself to avoid conflict, or worry that making a mistake means you'll be rejected? In this episode of The Self-Belief Podcast, Jenny explores the connection between blame, belonging, self-blame, people pleasing and fear of rejection, and how early experiences can teach us that being accepted depends on keeping other people happy. Through her own story, Jenny shares how awareness helped her move from reacting automatically to responding with choice, and why belonging should never cost you the right to be yourself. Why do I always blame myself when someone is upset with me? Why do I apologise even when I haven't done anything wrong? Why do I always feel responsible for other people's feelings? Why am I so afraid of disappointing people? Why do I explain myself all the time? Why does criticism affect me so much? Why does blame feel like rejection? How do I stop people pleasing? Why do I feel like I don't belong? What is the connection between blame and belonging? How does trauma affect the way we respond to blame? What is masking and why do people do it? How can I stop assuming everything is my fault? How do I know what I'm really responsible for? How can I build self-belief without changing who I am? Blame & belonging Fear of rejection Automatic patterns Awareness before change Choose yourself Remember: You can take responsibility for your actions without taking responsibility for everything. Belonging should never cost you the right to be yourself.  _____________________________________________________________ This episode continues a series exploring blame and how it affects self-belief.

    What Have I Done Wrong? Why Your Brain Jumps to Self-Blame | Blame Series – Part 1 ep 140

    Do you immediately blame yourself when something goes wrong, even before you know the full story? Jenny explores why so many of us automatically blame ourselves before we've even had time to understand what has actually happened in this episode of The Self-Belief Podcast.  She explains how our brains can quickly connect everyday situations to old experiences of blame, criticism, rejection or conflict, causing us to search for mistakes that may not even exist.

You'll discover the difference between blame and responsibility, why internal safety matters, and how learning to pause before accepting blame can help rebuild self-belief and protect your emotional wellbeing. If you've ever replayed conversations, over-explained yourself or carried responsibility that wasn't yours, this episode will help you separate facts from feelings and begin responding from what's actually true.

Why do I blame myself for everything? Why do I always ask what have I done wrong? Why do I assume people are angry with me? How do I stop blaming myself for everything? What is self-blame? What's the difference between blame and responsibility? Why do I feel guilty when I've done nothing wrong? Why do I overthink conversations after they happen? How does trauma affect self-blame?

    Could the lighting in your home be affecting your mood, sleep and nervous system more than you realise?  Many people think lighting is simply about making a room look nice, but for neurodivergent people it can have a huge impact on how the nervous system feels. In this episode, Jenny is joined by relationship coach Sarah Hurd and lighting specialist Sam Coles to explore how different types of lighting can affect people with ADHD, autism and sensory sensitivity. Together they discuss why some people feel overwhelmed by bright lights, how colour temperature changes the way we experience a room, why flickering lights can be exhausting, and how making small changes to your home lighting may improve sleep, reduce stress and support your overall wellbeing. Whether you've been diagnosed as neurodivergent or simply know that certain environments leave you feeling uncomfortable, this episode offers practical insights into creating spaces that feel calmer, safer and more supportive. Key Takeaways: Why lighting affects everyone differently, especially neurodivergent brains. The difference between warm and cool lighting and how colour temperature influences mood. Why flickering lights can increase overwhelm, headaches and sensory overload. How lighting impacts sleep, melatonin and your circadian rhythm. Practical ways to make your home feel calmer without completely redesigning it. In this episode I will cover the following questions: Why do bright lights overwhelm people with ADHD? Can lighting affect autism symptoms? What colour light is best for ADHD? Why do fluorescent lights cause headaches? Can lighting affect anxiety? How does blue light affect sleep? What is the best lighting for sensory sensitivity? Can changing light bulbs improve sleep? Why do some lights feel uncomfortable?

    What Happens When You Think Everyone Is Judging You | Fear of Judgement  ep 138

    Do you ever walk into a room and assume people are thinking something about you before anyone has actually said anything? Or stop yourself from posting on social media, speaking up, asking a question, or showing up because of what someone might think? In this episode of The Self-Belief Podcast, Jenny explores the difference between being judged and thinking you’re being judged and why that difference matters more than we often realise. Jenny shares how imagined judgement can affect mental health, confidence, decision-making, and the way we show up in everyday life. From replaying conversations and overthinking messages to avoiding visibility and changing yourself to feel safer, this episode looks at what happens when your brain starts reacting to fear rather than evidence. Jenny also reflects on her own experience of holding herself back because of imagined reactions from other people, and explains how awareness can help you separate what is actually happening from what your mind is expecting to happen. Key Takeaways: • The difference between real judgement and imagined judgement• Why your brain can react to fear of rejection as though it has already happened• How fear of judgement can affect confidence and mental health• Why overthinking, masking and people-pleasing can become exhausting• The link between rejection sensitivity, past experiences and self-protection• Questions to help you notice whether there is actual evidence or an old fear showing up If you’ve ever found yourself changing who you are, staying quiet, or holding yourself back because of what people might think, this episode offers a chance to pause and notice what is really happening underneath. In this episode I will cover the following questions: Why do I always think people are judging me? How do I stop caring what people think? Is overthinking linked to fear of judgement? Why do I imagine people are talking about me? What causes fear of rejection? Why do I avoid posting online? Can trauma make you fear being judged? What is rejection sensitivity? Why do I replay conversations in my head? How do I stop changing myself to fit in? 💜 Something special is here!

    Why You Judge Other People (And What It Says About You)  | Self-Judgement ep 136

    Why do certain people bother you more than others? Why do some comments or behaviours seem impossible to ignore? In this episode of The Self Belief Podcast, Jenny explores how judgement often reflects our own experiences, beliefs, insecurities and attempts to feel safe. This isn’t about feeling guilty for judging people. It’s about becoming aware of what those thoughts might be showing you. You’ll hear:• Why judgement often happens automatically• How your mind looks for evidence to confirm what you already believe• Why comparison can create temporary relief• How awareness creates space for different choices Because not every thought you have about someone else is actually about them. Key Takeaways Judgement often starts as protection, not cruelty Your brain is constantly trying to work out where you fit and what feels safe. What you notice in others is often connected to what’s happening inside you Your experiences and beliefs shape what stands out. Judgement doesn’t always feel like judgement It can feel like “just noticing” or “being realistic.” Awareness creates choice When you notice a pattern, you gain the opportunity to question it. Changing judgement isn’t about suppressing thoughts It’s about understanding where they came from. In this episode I will cover the following questions: Why do I judge other people so much? What does judging others say about you? Is judging people a defence mechanism? Why do people compare themselves to others? Why do certain people trigger me? How do I stop judging people? Is judgement linked to self-esteem? Why do I care what other people think? What is projection in psychology? Can becoming more self-aware reduce judgement? 💜 Something special is here!
