Why is it that celebrating our success can feel so hard?
The latest Coaching UnpACT podcast is about the art and science of celebrating success
This month's Coaching UnpACT Podcast is all about why we can struggle to share the things we are proud of.
In the spirit of being willing to step into discomfort, I'm sharing something I'm very proud of - completing The Northumbrian half iron distance triathlon on Sunday.
I talked on the podcast about why this was important to me. Hazel and I also talk about how difficult it can be to celebrate our success.
Why is it so difficult to connect with what we’re proud of? There can be social and cultural influences that lead us to downplay our achievements. In the podcast we delve into how our inner critic can block us, why self-compassion is key, and how to define success on your own terms. We also examine the tension between celebrating others and the trap of comparison.
This episode invites you to reflect on what you are proud of: So, what do you feel proud of, why, and how do you celebrate it?
