You get accolades from co-workers and supervisors, but you still question your work.
Thoughts like, “Did I do enough?” and “Did I say the wrong thing?“ race through your mind as you drive home.
You not only question your performance at work but also other parts of your life…like how you are as a mother, a friend, a daughter…..all the things.
You look like you have it all together on the outside, and you do, but you have this relentless inner critic that doesn’t stop criticizing you and lowering your self-esteem. It makes your thoughts race and sometimes keeps you up at night. You constantly question yourself.
You so desperately want to enjoy this beautiful life that you’ve worked so hard to create, but you can’t.
You know how to strive and work hard. But, you struggle to relax and enjoy your days off. To savor today and enjoy the little moments in life.
I understand where you’re coming from.
