    177: Questioning the Comfort Zone: A Fresh Perspective

    In this episode, I delve into the widely accepted notion that staying in your comfort zone can be akin to stagnation or even a proverbial "graveyard" for dreams and ideas. But is it necessary to always step out of one's comfort zone to grow, or is there value in staying cozy and enjoying the comfort it offers? Join me as I explore personal stories of embracing challenges and rediscovering passions, alongside insights and theories from Gay Hendricks’ book "The Big Leap." We'll evaluate the concept of an "upper limit" and the idea of self-sabotage, questioning if pushing beyond what we know is truly the path to success. Reflect on your own comfort zones and examine whether staying within them is holding you back or keeping you content and happy.   Video on YouTube - Self Belief Unsquashed Channel More about 'Self Squashing' - trishalewis.com (Link to book and TEDx)

    174: Emotional Flooding: When Tears Take Over

    Do you sometimes feel overwhelmed by your emotions? Do you feel like a softie when you well up in the middle of a work meeting or social event for seemingly small reasons?  Do you suppress or release your crying?    Let's put 'crying' on the forensics table.  Not just any old crying - 'emotional crying'.   A little look at the science of crying and a real story to illustrate the potential embarrassment (and learning opportunities) of unbid and out of proportion 'emotional crying'.  Those waves of feeling that hit you without warning and quickly flood you - if you let them.   Is there a way to stop the tears? Do you need to? Are you being over-reactive or simply human?   This is not a sad listen.  This is about building a better relationship with your emotions.  Real stories, some brain/body stuff, and practical tips to try.   *******   Research for further investigation:   How Stuff Works - How Crying Works.   The Relationship of Gender Roles and Beliefs to Crying in an International Sample.     More 'Unsquashing' resources and links  - go to my website.   Follow me on Medium for all sorts of 'human' stories around the topic of 'self-squashing'.

    173: Is it stupid to feel like and impostor?

    This episode explores the complexities of imposter syndrome, a feeling of inadequacy despite evidence of success. We delve into the idea that instead of viewing imposter syndrome as solely a negative experience, you can reframe it as a catalyst for growth and learning. Could the feeling act as a motivator to push past comfort zones, embrace vulnerability, and acquire new knowledge. We consider the importance of self-awareness, a growth mindset, and finding supportive communities to overcome the debilitating aspects of imposter syndrome and harness its potential for positive change.   REFERENCES The first quote is from: The importance of stupidity in scientific research - Martin A.
