play

08/21/23 • 23 min

Hi guys, in this week's episode, I wanted to talk about becoming a high-value woman and what that means. Being a high-value woman refers to embodying certain qualities and characteristics that contribute to your personal growth, self-confidence, and positive impact on your life and the lives of others.
It's important to note that being a high-value woman is not about perfection or conforming to a specific mold. It's about valuing yourself, your growth, and your impact on the world while staying true to your individuality. These traits can be cultivated over time through self-awareness, dedication to personal development, and a commitment to living a fulfilling and meaningful life.

play

07/29/24 • 23 min

In today’s episode, we explore self-doubt—its origins, manifestations, and how to handle it effectively.

Key Takeaways:

  • Understanding Self-Doubt: Often rooted in early experiences and can impact various areas of life.
  • Normalizing Doubt: It’s common and manageable; how you deal with it matters more than the doubt itself.
  • Personal Experience: Maria shares her own struggles with imposter syndrome and how past experiences shape her self-view.
  • Shifting Perspective: Use doubt as a growth tool; acknowledge it without resistance.
  • Building Confidence: Grow by taking action despite doubt; evaluate your ability to handle different outcomes.
  • Imposter Syndrome: It’s natural; overcome it by showing up as the person you aspire to be.
  • Self-Compassion: Embrace imperfections and use practices like journaling to reinforce your strengths.
  • Practical Tips: Journal your thoughts and consider hiring a coach if needed.

Embrace your journey—self-doubt is part of the process, but it doesn’t define you. Learn from it and keep moving forward with confidence.
