Are you self-sabotaging? You might use food, alcohol or shopping to feel better but afterwards end up feeling worse about yourself and still have that empty feeling inside. You might let people get away with things, you don’t step in when you should, or you feel helpless to control situations which then perpetuates your own unhappiness and frustration.

 

Do you wish you could be more authentic and speak up for yourself? You might be able to assert yourself in business or at work but when it comes to speaking up for yourself personally, it’s hard and feels safer to stay quiet. You don’t have your own back, you put others first, you can’t ask for what you want, you’re not clear on what you want or what you need. You defer to others, you can’t make up your mind.

 

Do you crave deeper connection? You have so much to give but you can’t open up and share your true self. It’s hard to be authentic and feel relaxed in your own skin. Your emotions get in the way of opening up. You feel disconnected from yourself and those around you. And you feel so alone, even when surrounded by a partner, friends or family.

 

Do you want to feel good about yourself? You are constantly judging yourself. You’re unsure of whether you did it ‘right’, how you look, how you act and behave and whether you fit in. You feel awkward at times. You wish you felt more confident, secure in yourself, in control of your life and capable.
