Episode 107: Stop Saying No to Yourself Before You Even Ask

Too often, we shut down possibilities before we even explore them. We assume the job we want doesn’t exist, that we can’t negotiate for more, or that asking will only lead to disappointment. But that assumption is holding you back.

In this episode, I break down the ways microdosing disappointment can limit our opportunities, and how we unknowingly (or knowingly) say no to ourselves before we even try.

Here’s what you’ll take away from this episode:

  • How we try to avoid disappointment but end up microdosing disappointment which keeps us stuck in jobs and situations that don’t serve us.

  • A real-life example of my friend and fellow doctor who assumes her dream job doesn’t exist— before even looking.

  • How awareness of what you’re thinking and feeling helps you make better choices.

If you’ve been holding yourself back from asking for more, this episode will challenge you to rethink what’s possible.
