Episode notes
What does it actually mean to be good enough? It's something we battle with and hear constantly, but when I sat back with that concept I realized I didn't even really know what that meant to be "good enough". What I did know is I allowed the constant need to feel good enough to play too much of a negative role in who I was and how I was showing up in my life. In order to make any progress on a certain area we first need to understand what it is, where it came from and why it's happening. That is what we are covering in this week's episode. I break down all of the areas we have been exposed to throughout our lives that have contributed to our feelings of not enoughness and the psychology that plays into the topics. I cover self esteem vs self worth, perfectionism, and research from child psychoanalyst Donald Winnicott. And of course we discuss how to flip the question of "am I good enough?" to something that stops us from constantly auditioning for worth. If you've ever wondered when you'll finally feel you're enough, this conversation is for you.
