S3, Ep 33: Why Not Me? Rewriting the Stories Holding Highly Sensitive Leaders Back

In this week’s episode, I’m opening up about one of the sneakiest stories that can hold us back as sensitive leaders and entrepreneurs. It’s that quiet little voice that says: “They’re too successful, too confident, too much for me to measure up.” Here’s what I share inside:Why this hidden identity gap can keep us from stepping into our next role or opportunityHow we often make things about other people when the real story is about usPractical steps to shift your perspective and stop putting others on a pedestalJournaling prompts and reflections to help you rewrite the stories that are keeping you smallA powerful reminder that you don’t need to be “fully healed” or “perfect” to grow This conversation is all about finding the courage to see yourself as capable, ready, and worthy of the opportunities that are waiting for you. Kate Here are 10 powerful journal prompts your attendees can use to deepen this work:What stories do I currently tell myself about who my “ideal” clients are and who I am in relation to them? Where do I notice myself shrinking back, holding back, or making assumptions about what others think? When was the last time I doubted my offer, not because of its quality, but because of who I imagined would see it? If I fully believed I was “good enough,” how would I show up differently in my business today? What evidence do I already have that proves I am skilled, capable, and ready for bigger opportunities? Imagine a dream client approaches you — describe in detail how you confidently respond, using all five senses. What identity shift do I need to make to step into the next level of my business? Where am I waiting to be “fully healed” or “fully ready” before taking action — and how can I move forward now, as I am? What assumptions have I been making about others that might actually be holding me back?    10. Why NOT me?
