    Untangling Self-Worth from Results

    In this episode of Studio Hours, Hannah unpacks the cultural obsession with outcomes and how it can distort our sense of self-worth—especially in a tough market for businesses and job seekers. Drawing from her past life as a competitive Muay Thai fighter and inspired by great athletes like Kobe, Serena, and Muhammad Ali, she explores how focusing on the process, preparation, and mental stamina helps us endure uncertainty. She also weaves in lessons from Annie Duke’s Thinking in Bets to remind us that results are often about probabilities, not personal value. If you’re job searching, building a business, or navigating a hard season, this episode is your reminder to focus on what you can control—and to be proud of your effort, not just the outcomes.
