    Rewriting the Script on Self-Doubt

    Are you really ready to break free from the cycle of self-doubt that's been holding you back? In the final episode of Tied to Metrics Season 1, Kat Sosnick dives into how high performers can overcome the grip of self-doubt and step into their full potential. With years of experience in finance and coaching, Kat shares her personal insights and practical advice to help you break free from the productivity-killing traps that keep you stuck. Key Points: Self-doubt is a productivity killer - It's not just an emotional setback—self-doubt erodes confidence, crushes motivation, and keeps you from taking the bold risks that lead to success. The real challenge isn’t, can I do this? It’s will I let self-doubt talk me out of even trying? -  The first step to breaking free is recognizing when self-doubt shows up and choosing to push forward anyway. The trick isn’t to silence self-doubt, it’s to recognize when it’s feeding you a bad script - Kat shares how she learned to spot self-doubt's disguised voice of "practical thinking" and how you can do the same. Success should feel like success, not just a moment of relief before the next stress cycle -  It's time to stop tying your worth to your latest achievement or setback, and start creating a sense of confidence that lasts. You don’t have to stay stuck -  The change starts with shifting your mindset and retraining your brain to stop letting self-doubt control your decisions.

    Let Go of Perfectionism

    Are you tired of feeling like you're just one step from burnout despite all your hard work? In this episode of Tied to Metrics, Kat Sosnick shares insights on how high performers can break free from the cycles of self-doubt, perfectionism, and overthinking that often lead to exhaustion and burnout. Kat challenges the idea that happiness and success come from constant hustle and teaches how the right mindset shifts can lead to a more confident and productive life. Key Points Nothing changes until you decide to change - Change begins with a decision. You don’t need more willpower; you need a new approach to break free from overthinking and self-doubt. Happiness isn't the destination. It's the byproduct of growth - Chasing happiness keeps you stuck. Instead, focus on growth and embrace discomfort as the key to real success and fulfillment. You can either spend your energy trying to control everything, or you can use it to move forward - Perfectionism and controlling outcomes hold you back. Let go of the need to control everything and use that energy to propel yourself forward. It’s not your talent that’s keeping you from the next level. It’s your mindset - Self-doubt and hesitation are the true barriers to success. Shift your mindset, and you'll find the confidence to make decisions and take risks. Stop trying to do it all alone - The most successful people don’t go it alone. Get the support you need to accelerate your growth and break free from limiting thought patterns.

    From Reaction to Intentional Action

    From Reaction to Intentional Action Are your reactions running the show—or are you in control? We all have moments where we let emotions take the wheel, only to regret it later. But what if you could shift from knee-jerk reactions to intentional responses? In this episode of Tied to Metrics, Kat Sosnick is breaking down the mindset shifts and strategies that help you stay in control, even in the heat of the moment. Key Points: "When you react, emotion leads. When you respond, intention does." Learn the key difference between reacting and responding—and why mastering this skill changes everything. Confidence isn’t built on perfection. True confidence comes from knowing you can handle failure, rejection, and setbacks without spiraling. Shrink the change to stack the wins. Big transformations happen when you start small. Learn how micro-adjustments create massive results over time. If I didn’t belong here, I wouldn’t be here. Overcoming imposter syndrome starts with shifting your self-talk—here’s how to rewire your inner dialogue. Reaction keeps you stuck. Response moves you forward. Learn the exact strategies to pause, reframe, and respond with clarity instead of regret. Resources Kat Sosnick on LinkedIn | Greene Street Coaching

    Confidence Through Specialization

    Are you letting feedback define your self-worth? In high-performance industries like finance, it’s easy to mistake professional setbacks for personal failures. But the key to long-term success isn’t just intelligence or skill—it’s learning how to separate your identity from your work. In this episode of Tied to Metrics, Kat Sosnick unpacks why taking things personally can hold you back and how to shift your mindset for confidence and growth. Key Points: Separate your work from your self-worth - High performers often tie their value to metrics, but true success comes from detaching your identity from real-time results. Confidence comes from knowing something better than most - You don’t need to master everything—specializing in one area builds credibility and authority. Feedback is just another data point - Instead of seeing criticism as a personal attack, use it as a tool for improvement. Prove yourself somewhere, not everywhere - Focusing on a niche makes you indispensable and accelerates career growth. Adopt a beginner’s mindset - The best leaders never stop learning—stay curious, ask questions, and evolve with the industry. Resources Kat Sosnick on LinkedIn | Greene Street Coaching

    Data Without Context

    What happens when you trust data too blindly and forget to ask the right questions? In this episode, Kat Sosnick dives into the dangers of making decisions based on incomplete or context-free data. Data might seem like the holy grail, but without understanding the bigger picture, it can lead you straight into self-doubt and costly mistakes. Tune in to learn how to avoid this trap and sharpen your decision-making skills. Key Points: Numbers alone can mislead you - Without the full story behind the data, even the most promising metrics can lead to bad decisions. Great leaders don’t need to have all the answers - Admitting uncertainty opens the door for collaboration and better decisions. Experience can cloud your judgment - Overconfidence and the assumption that you "know it all" can lead to costly mistakes. What’s missing from this data? - Trusting data without asking this question can cause you to overlook critical factors that change the outcome. Don’t let ego guide your decisions - Learn from mistakes and move forward with self-discipline and a clearer perspective. Resources Kat Sosnick on LinkedIn | Greene Street Coaching

    Stop the Recency Bias Spiral

    What if your last mistake isn’t proof that you’ve lost your edge—but just a mental trap playing tricks on you? In this episode, Kat Sosnick dives deep into recency bias, the dangerous mindset that convinces high performers that one bad outcome defines their entire ability. Whether you're a trader, entrepreneur, or executive, this episode will show you how to break free from self-doubt and reclaim your long-term success. Key Points: Your last result is not the full story - Recency bias tricks you into overvaluing recent failures while ignoring a history of success. Self-doubt doesn’t just sit still—it spirals - Hesitation, overcorrection, and burnout are common reactions when high performers get stuck in this cycle. Zoom out before you spiral out - Listing past wins can help break the cycle of negativity and remind you of your true track record. One bad day doesn’t erase years of success - A single mistake doesn’t define your entire career or capability. Confidence doesn’t rebuild itself—you have to feed it - Simple strategies, like tracking micro-wins, shift focus from short-term setbacks to long-term progress.

    The Secret to Beating Burnout

    Have you ever felt like you're doing everything right—working long hours, hitting your goals—but still feel burnt out and stuck? Why does success often leave you running on empty? In this episode of Tied to Metrics, Kat Sosnick, founder of Greene Street Coaching, reveals the secret to unlocking your high-performance potential by rebalancing your energy across three key areas of your life.

    Build Your Confidence Bank

    Have you ever felt like no matter how much you accomplish, you're always just a few steps behind? What if the key to overcoming self-doubt wasn’t about achieving more success, but about changing the way you measure it? In this episode of Tied to Metrics, Kat Sosnick dives into the powerful concept of building your Confidence Bank—a strategy designed to help high performers break free from cycles of self-doubt, recency bias, and over-analysis. Learn how to shift your focus from fleeting metrics to a system that compounds over time, just like an investment portfolio. Key Points: Your last result is not your full story - Why recency bias tricks us into believing that our most recent failure is all that defines us, and how the confidence bank shows the bigger picture. Make deposits in your confidence bank, so self-doubt can’t bankrupt you - The importance of consistently reinforcing small wins, positive reflections, and daily progress to build lasting confidence. Confidence isn’t something you have or don’t—it’s something you build - The critical role of self-reflection and micro-wins in shifting your mindset from doubt to assurance. High performers don’t avoid self-doubt—they prepare for it - Why checking your confidence balance regularly is essential for staying grounded and not starting from zero every time you face a setback.

    Confidence Banking 101

    Are you letting one mistake define your entire track record? In the high-stakes world of finance, even the best investors wrestle with self-doubt. But what separates top performers from the rest isn’t the absence of doubt—it’s how they navigate through it. In this episode of Tied to Metrics, Kat Sosnick pulls back the curtain on the hidden struggles of high achievers and shares a powerful strategy to break free from the self-doubt cycle. Key Points: Even the best second-guess themselves. Legendary investors don’t operate with absolute certainty—they debate, analyze, and question their decisions just like you. Good decisions can lead to bad outcomes. Markets don’t reward intelligence alone. A perfect trade can still go sideways, and self-doubt can make it worse if left unchecked. The self-doubt trap is real. When one bad call shakes your confidence, you risk playing not to lose instead of playing to win. Confidence banking is your way out. Track your wins—big and small—to counter recency bias and build a reserve of self-belief. Trust the process, not your fear. The key isn’t eliminating doubt, but recognizing when it’s a distraction versus a signal. Resources Kat Sosnick on LinkedIn | Greene Street Coaching

    Self-Doubt on Wall Street

    Ever feel like you're the only one struggling with self-doubt while everyone else seems to have it all together? You're not alone. In this episode of Tied to Metrics, Kat Sosnick shatters the myth that high performers in finance never question themselves. She dives into how self-doubt impacts even the most successful individuals and why it's time to embrace the truth behind our insecurities. Key Points Self-doubt doesn’t mean you're underqualified. It means you care - Admitting self-doubt feels like a weakness in high-pressure fields, but it’s actually a sign you care and want to improve. No one has it all figured out, even the mighty minds - Most people in finance (and high-performance fields) secretly struggle with self-doubt, even if they seem confident. Recency Bias is a confidence killer - Giving too much weight to your most recent performance leads to over-analysis and a false sense of failure. Confidence isn’t about certainty - Realizing that everyone faces uncertainty can help break the cycle of self-doubt and boost your confidence.
