    Overcoming Never Enough Syndrome: Meet Never Enough Nancy

If that just made you sigh, this episode is for you. Welcome back to Thinking Out Loud! I’m Lexie Loman, licensed therapist, and today we’re diving into the third gremlin in our Gremlins & Goats series: Never Enough Nancy. Nancy is the shame gremlin who convinces you that peace, contentment, confidence, and worth are always just one more achievement away. Every time you check the box (lose the 10 pounds, get the certification, find the partner), she quietly raises the bar higher — leaving you stuck in an endless cycle of “never enough.” In this episode, we explore: How Never Enough Nancy shows up in everyday life (deflecting compliments, skipping celebrations, feeling “basic” after big purchases, and more)Why chasing the next goal will never fill the internal holeThe simple, powerful Gremlins & Goats practice: Bleat “Shaaa-ame!” then drop one big truth bomb to starve the gremlin and feed your peaceMy personal story of battling Nancy through college, grad school, certifications, and material milestones — until I finally learned I was enough exactly as I wasYou don’t have to stop growing — you just get to stop growing from lack.

    Imposter Irving: The shame gremlin that keeps high achievers small

    Ever lay awake at 3 a.m. convinced that any day now everyone is going to finally figure out you have no idea what you’re doing? That tomorrow someone will expose you as the fraud you secretly believe you are? If that voice just whispered “yep, that’s me”… this episode is for you. I’m Lexie Loman, licensed therapist, and several years ago I was having the exact same imposter-syndrome conversation with client… after client… after client. Then I realized I was saying the same things to myself every single day — even after the master’s degree, the license, the private practice, and the glowing testimonials. Enter Imposter Irving: the shame gremlin in the tiny detective hat who screams “Who do you think you are?” on repeat. In this episode you’ll discover: Why the higher you climb, the louder the fraud alarm getsThe 4 everyday moments that prove Irving is running your lifeMy ridiculously effective (and hilarious) mindfulness tool: the GOATHow to bleat “Shaaa-ame!” out loud and watch shame melt in secondsThe truth bombs that actually make the voice go from scream to whisperPlus I’ll walk you through the exact exercise I use with clients so you can try it right now (yes, even in the car… people might stare, but it works). If you’re a high-achiever who looks unstoppable on the outside but feels empty and terrified on the inside — you are not alone, and it does NOT have to stay this way. You are already enough.
