The Pressure To Prove Yourself Put Into Words

In this episode Georgie and Engrid are discussing the situations where we feel pressure to prove ourselves. This feels especially noticeable in newer relationships or group dynamics. The gals explore where this comes from, who it shows up around and how their need to prove themselves has changed over the years.  The gals also share from listeners who wrote in to on Instagram to share about their experiences with situations where they felt like they needed to prove themselves .

IN THIS EPISODE:
In what situations do you feel like you have to prove yourself? What does “proving yourself” look like for you? How do you feel after an interaction where you felt like you had to prove yourself? How does it feel to meet someone or be around someone where you DON’T feel pressure to prove yourself? Where do you think this feeling/impulse comes from? How do you THINK you come off in first impressions? Do you assume most people like you? Or that most people don’t like you? (has that changed over the years?)  
MORE IDEAS WE DISCUSS:
Group dynamics (one upping) Assuming people won’t like you unless you prove yourself The way you feel about yourself being projected onto others - and that energy impacting how they see you
