The Truth About Self-Awareness

In this podcast episode, Dr. Tasha Yurik discusses the concept of self-awareness. Only 10-15% of people are actually self-aware, despite 95% believing they are. Self-awareness is a learnable skill that can be developed to improve various areas of life. It involves understanding oneself from the inside out (internal self-awareness) and understanding how others perceive us (external self-awareness). Both types of self-awareness are independent and require specific approaches. The benefits of self-awareness include better performance at work, improved relationships, increased confidence, and greater happiness. Achieving self-awareness requires reframing introspective questions from 'why' to 'what' and seeking feedback from trusted individuals called 'loving critics'.
