A 5-Day Challenge for Women Leaders & Founders Who Want to Stop Holding Back
From Holding Back to Taking Action:
A private podcast to help you be more courageous
Welcome to my private podcast, it's great to have you here!
Episode 1 is now available, scroll down to listen or download.
I'll be releasing a new private podcast on each of the five days. They form a step-by-step challenge, which has been designed to to help you stop holding back and start taking action towards your goals.
Rather than simply talking through psychological ideas, techniques and tools, I wanted to create this podcast as a gentle conversation with you. In each episode I'll be sharing my ideas as well as reflective questions for you to consider and a few stories from my own experience.
I’d like to invite you to listen when you have time to pause and think, because I know that many of the answers are already within you.
If any of the ideas resonate, or if you have feedback or suggestions, I’d love to hear from you, just email hello@borntobebold.co.uk.
About the Host
Hello, I’m Dr Rachel Lee and I'm a Consultant Clinical Psychologist. I created this podcast as a quiet, private space to explore courage. I believe that we all have a bold part of us, but that sometimes this part gets turned down or even blocked, often due to our life experiences and the reactions of other people in our lives.
These episodes are shaped by what I’ve learned over 20 years as a psychologist, plus my own experiences of being a senior leader and business owner. They’re offered as opportunities to slow down, pause and reflect, because I believe that the answers are often already within us.
Day 1: Spotting what's holding you back
This episode will help you to pause and reflect on the internal conflict that happens within you when you hold yourself back. The first step to overcoming our internal barriers is noticing them in a curious and compassionate way.
Day 2: Breaking unhelpful patterns
This episode will help you to break unhelpful patterns, whether you find yourself getting caught up in unwanted thoughts or negative self-stories or find yourself "polishing" your work due to perfectionism, procrastinating or avoiding the very actions that would help you reach your hopes and dreams.
In this episode I discuss the choice point, which is a simple model for making decisions. I've included an image of this below so that you can visualise it more easily.
