ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Ep69: How to Quiet the Voice That Says "You Haven't Done Enough" | Hardcore and At Ease - powered by Others Over Self®
You hit the number, and the bar moves. The voice that says "you haven't done enough" usually started with someone else, and you quiet it by practicing how you answer it.
Host Shelly Rood talks with Carylyne Chan about where that voice comes from: a former boss, a relationship that ended, a drill sergeant who set your standard from a distance and never stopped. Carylyne shares the sentence she uses when anxiety speeds up and how she built the habit of saying the direct thing out loud until it stopped feeling like a risk.
Shelly closes with the rule underneath the voice, "if I can, I should," and how Lived Authority replaces the old habit of waiting for a sign-off that never comes.
