How to Stop Putting People on Pedestals (REPLAY)
241: Influencers, celebs and mega coaches are often treated as mythical Gods. We act as if they're untouchable, immune to the suffering life brings, and operate with zero worries in the world.But when we put them on pedestals, we dehumanize them. In the same vein, we make ourselves small. The automatic comparison and projection prompts self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and keeps us stuck in a constant cycle of feeling inspired, then comparing, sabotaging or worse, staying stuck and never trying at all.In today’s solo ep, Chelsea deep dives into this concept. Why do we put so much weight into social following? Why are we so quick to take IG photos as truth? Why don’t we use more discernment when making snap judgments?She also shares ways to take people off of pedestals so you can finally get out there and shoot your shot. Pitch that host.
