Episode notes
Insecurity Is A Learned Protection
- Insecurity is a protection mechanism that learned to keep you from shame and poor treatment.
- It has value but becomes harmful when it dominates choices and shrinks life experiences.
How Insecurity Directs Decisions
- The voice of insecurity pushes you to play small, avoid risk, and repeat negative past patterns.
- It ties current choices to old shameful outcomes and concludes: don't do it.
Intuition Is Directional, Not Protective
- Intuition doesn't prioritize protection; it points you toward your fullest potential even if it's uncomfortable.
- It's directional and neutral, like GPS telling you the next move rather than warning of dangers.
