Do you ever look around and feel like everyone else got a script for life that you missed? It is so easy to compare ourselves to others and suddenly feel like we are falling short.
That uneasy feeling usually happens when we lose sight of our core values.
Think of your values as your personal compass—the things that keep you grounded and true to yourself.
This happened to my client, Maya, (name changed for privacy) after a corporate retreat.
While her peers bonded over expensive wine and luxury vacations, Maya felt totally out of place. She does not drink and cares very little about social status.
Because of that, she left the weekend battling a massive wave of imposter syndrome.
Everything changed when we looked at what she values versus her peers.
While they seemed to value luxury, status and competition, Maya realized her true core values were authenticity, integrity, and family.
She realized that she did not need to fit their mold. She was happiest sitting in the bleachers watching her son play baseball.
With that single insight, the comparison completely vanished.
Maya stopped trying to fit in and successfully refocused on delivering quality work, offering strategic advice, and keeping her family first.
She figured out what truly mattered to her, and that is how she finally claimed her space–professionally and personally–with total confidence.
I created my self-paced workbook, Naming and Claiming Your Values to help you do this, too.
https://jennyremington.com/values
From the very beginning of the workbook, you are guided to reflect and discover the unspoken rules that guide you.
This insight sets the stage for uncovering your values.
When you know what you stand for, you can walk into any room and stay true to yourself—so you can stop performing for others and finally just breathe.
