Vulnerability Sucks! But I Gotta Keep It Trill
In this episode I share a part of my story. I discuss my battle with self worth, self doubt & self esteem, how it affected me at work and what I have learned so far in this journey.
I spent a lot of time wondering what’s wrong with me, why am I failing at this game and why am I not good enough… Not good enough to be elevated & sponsored, groomed for senior leadership, and promoted to the next level.
I put a lot of my self-worth and self esteem into what others thought of me at work. I was defining my worth by my career.
The result of my thinking……..
- When I was doing well at work, my life was good.
- When things at work were anything less than optimal, my life was living hell.
But I learned the hard way……
“If I didn’t define myself for myself, I would be crunched into other people’s fantasies for me and eaten alive.” ― Audre Lorde.
