Podcasts about Aziz

Why do you avoid conflict, over-apologize, or say “yes” when you really mean “no”? In this powerful episode, Dr. Aziz unpacks the deeper reasons behind people-pleasing and “nice” behavior—and reveals what's really driving it. You'll discover that these habits aren't just random quirks—they're part of a system designed to keep you “safe” by earning approval and avoiding disapproval. But this comes at a huge cost: your authenticity, your confidence, and your freedom. Dr. Aziz shares key signs of hidden people-pleasing and offers a compelling invitation to look at what you're really afraid to feel. Once you understand the emotional root of these patterns, you can start breaking free—not by fixing a dozen behaviors, but by going straight to the source.

Afet zararlarını azaltmak, afetlere hazırlık yapmak amacıyla örgütlenen mahalleleri, bu tür faaliyetlere öncülük eden muhtarları tanıtmak amacıyla gerçekleştirdiğimiz programlara devam ediyoruz.  Konuklarımız İstanbul Üsküdar İlçesi Aziz Mahmut Hüdayi Mahallesi Muhtarı Aliye Serin ve Ankara Çankaya İlçesi Çiğdem Mahallesi Muhtarı Özlem Argon Cerit ile afet önlemlerinde mahalle örgütlenmesinin önemini, Aziz Mahmut Efendi ve Çiğdem Mahallelerinde yürütülmekte olan afet zararlarının azaltılması ve hazırlık çalışmalarını, mahalle muhtarlarımızın bağlı oldukları Kaymakamlık ve Belediyeler ile ilişkilerini konuşuyoruz.

Do you worry you're coming off as too needy—in dating, friendships, or business? In this episode of Shrink for the Shy Guy, Dr. Aziz breaks down what “neediness” really is, why it's often just fear in disguise, and how to shift from anxious grasping to calm confidence. You'll learn how to spot the difference between healthy desire and emotional urgency—and what to do when you feel that panicky “I need this to go right” energy.

Bu bölümde işlenen ayetler:30: Şehirde birtakım kadınlar, “Aziz'in karısı, (hizmetçisi olan) delikanlısından murad almak istemiş. Ona olan aşkı yüreğine işlemiş. Şüphesiz biz onu açık bir sapıklık içinde görüyoruz” dediler.31: Azizin karısı, onların gizliden gizliye dedikodu yaydıklarını işitince, onlara davetçi gönderdi ve onlara mükellef bir sofra hazırladı. Her birine bir bıçak verdi, beri taraftan da Yusuf'a "çık karşılarına" dedi. Görür görmez hepsi onu gözlerinde çok büyüttüler ve (şaşkınlıkla) ellerini kestiler. Dediler ki: "Hâşâ! Allah için, bu bir insan değil, olsa olsa yüce bir melektir."32: "İşte" dedi, "bu gördüğünüz, beni hakkında kınadığınız (gençtir). Yemin ederim ki, ben bunun nefsinden yararlanmak istedim de o, namuslu davrandı. Yine yemin ederim ki, emrimi yerine getirmezse, muhakkak zindana atılacak ve kesinlikle zelillerden olacaktır".33: Yusuf dedi ki: "Ey Rabbim! Zindan bana, bunların beni davet ettikleri şeyden daha sevimlidir. Eğer sen, bu kadınların tuzaklarını benden uzak tutmazsan, ben onların tuzağına düşerim ve cahillik edenlerden olurum".34: Bunun üzerine Rabbi, onun duasını kabul buyurdu da ondan onların tuzaklarını bertaraf etti. Muhakkak ki O, evet O, hakkıyla işiten, hakkıyla bilendir.35: Bu kadar delili gördükleri halde, sonra yine de Yusuf'u bir süre için zindana atma düşüncesi ağır bastı.Kurantime olarak daha kaliteli çalışmalar yapabilmemize destek olmak isterseniz bize Gofundme üzerinden katkıda bulunabilirsiniz.https://www.gofundme.com/f/kuran-time...

This weekend on Smashi Business Show: Weekend Edition, we break down three major stories shaping the region. India moves to exempt Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund from key investment rules, paving the way for deeper financial ties and major capital inflows. In Dubai, property prices may drop by up to 15% as a record housing supply threatens to outpace population growth. And billionaire landlord Asif Aziz—who owns major parts of London's West End—is relocating to Abu Dhabi, joining a growing wave of wealthy individuals fleeing UK tax changes and investing in the UAE's booming real estate scene.Instagram: https://aug.us/4ihltzQNewsletter: https://aug.us/4jqModrWhatsApp: https://aug.us/40FdYLUTiktok: https://aug.us/4lnV0D8Smashi Business Show (Mon-Friday): https://aug.us/3BTU2MY

Aquest diumenge 1 de juny, Barcelona celebrarà la seva primera cursa antiracista, organitzada per Top Manta. El que va néixer com una marca de roba social i solidària ha evolucionat, i ara, coincidint amb la primera dècada de la seva fundació, el sindicat de venedors ambulants promou un esdeveniment que fusiona esport i lluita política. Les inscripcions estan exhaurides des de fa setmanes. Els cinc-cents dorsals d'amplicació que van aconseguir després de negociar amb el districte també van volar en un tres i no res.La societat ha respost a la crida antiracista, i de fet les aficions de tres clubs populars i tradicionals de Barcelona (els Desperdicis del Sant Andreu, els Eskapulats de l'Europa i el Reducte GrisGrana del Júpiter) malgrat arrossegar una rivalitat històrica, han unit forces per la cursa de diumenge. Juntament amb Héctor Bellerin, ex-futbolista del Barça, convoquen una grada d'animació comú i antiracista perquè en formi part tothom que no s'hi hagi pogut inscriure, és a dir, que no pugui córrer per deixar els discursos d'odi enrere. Aziz Faye, portaveu de Top Manta, ens rep al taller tèxtil ubicat a Can Batlló a primera hora, abans que arrenquin les màquines, pocs dies abans de la data senyalada. Pòdcast.cat de Núvol

In dieser Episode ist Aziz Ait Ben Omar zu Gast – er ist aktuell U17 Trainer bei den Sportfreunden Baumberg. Wir sprechen über Lösungen im Aufbauspiel und Spiel gegen den Ball. Wie können wir Rondos gezielt nutzen und wie lösen wir bestimmte Problemstellungen. Wir reden drüber!

Aziz was more than an interpreter for our guest Chad Robichaux, a Force Recon Marine, during his eight deployments to Afghanistan. He was a teammate, brother, and friend. More than once, Aziz saved his life. And then he needed someone to save him. When President Joe Biden announced in April 2021 that the United States would be making a hasty withdrawal from Afghanistan, our guest knew he had to get Aziz and his family out before Taliban forces took over the country. Join us to hear a gripping account of two heroes and a daring mission that put human hearts and names alongside the headlines of one of the most harrowing moments in our history.

It's extremely difficult to move past anger and hurt driving you towards revenge. War, violence, and suffering are driven by that cycle of emotions. Palestinian author, peacemaker, and entrepreneur Aziz Abu Sarah knows the feelings well, but from his own life experiences, he shares his belief that peace is achievable and another way forward is possible. In this episode, Aziz tells his story and explains his work to bring even the most seemingly intractable conflicts to a resolution that allows for justice, reconciliation, and safety for all.This episode originally aired September 9, 2024.For the full text transcript, visit go.ted.com/BHTranscriptsWant to help shape TED's shows going forward?

In this eye-opening episode of Shrink for the Shy Guy, Dr. Aziz introduces what might be the most underrated yet transformational key to building confidence and reducing social anxiety: expanding your capacity. It might not sound glamorous, but this principle is the real “magic juice” for lasting confidence. Dr. Aziz explains that every person has an emotional and psychological threshold for discomfort—whether it's rejection, conflict, criticism, or awkwardness—and those with social anxiety often have a lower capacity in these areas. The breakthrough? Confidence grows not by avoiding discomfort, but by intentionally leaning into it. By reframing your experiences as opportunities to expand your capacity rather than threats to avoid, you open the door to extraordinary growth. Whether it's speaking up at work, handling rejection in dating, or saying what you really think in a group—these are not scary “failures” to avoid but moments to train your emotional muscles. Dr. Aziz shares stories from real client breakthroughs, including one man who concluded after a single awkward phone call that he should “never talk to a woman on the phone again.” Through humor and insight, Dr. Aziz reveals how easily we draw limiting conclusions and how much power we reclaim when we choose to stay in the discomfort zone just long enough to grow.

In this refreshing episode of Shrink for the Shy Guy, Dr. Aziz dives into a deceptively simple question with massive implications: “Are you apologizing too much?” Most people don't even realize how often they say “sorry”—not just in words, but in their tone, posture, and energy. If you constantly feel responsible for other people's reactions, discomfort, or expectations—even when you didn't do anything wrong—you're likely trapped in a loop of unconscious over-apologizing. And that loop isn't just exhausting—it's eroding your confidence and subtly reshaping your relationships. Dr. Aziz breaks down how unnecessary apologies stem from overactive guilt systems and people-pleasing conditioning, often developed in childhood. You'll discover how to recognize the difference between healthy, empathy-based apologies and guilt-driven ones that actually weaken connection. Plus, you'll learn a simple internal filter: before apologizing, pause and ask yourself, “Did I actually do something wrong?” Then, try this bonus lens—what would I tell a friend to do in this situation?

In this episode, Nina Aziz Justin discovers how, like nature, what breaks often leads to new growth, dan apa yang hilang membuka jalan untuk sesuatu yang baru bersama Refie Redzuan. They dive into the timeless truth behind “Yang Patah Tumbuh, Yang Hilang Berganti,” a reflection on how brokenness can be the beginning of something stronger. The conversation explores how loss and letting go, though painful, can ultimately lead us to a clearer sense of self. From grief to growth, heartbreak to healing, HE shares how sitting with discomfort and trusting the process can uncover unexpected strength.

In a controversy that seems to have divided the art world in India, Mumbai-based poet-activist Aamir Aziz has accused well known artist Anita Dube of using his poem without his consent, and profiting from it without giving him credit or compensation. The poem in question is ‘Sab Yaad Rakha Jayega', which became an anthem of the anti-CAA protests and later a global phenomenon after English rock musician Roger Waters read it out at an event in London. While Dube has admitted to an “ethical lapse” and reportedly offered some remuneration to Aziz, the dispute has acquired a legal dimension, with Aziz sending her a legal notice. What does the copyright law say in a case like this – where an artist may feel she has the right to ‘fair use' of a text, but another artist feels that his copyright has been violated? Guest: Shantanu Sood, a lawyer who specialises in intellectual property-related issues. Host: G.

“Peygamberlerin, sıddıkların ve salihlerin geniş ve doğru yoluna nasıl girilir? Dünya âhirete perdedir. Ahirete dalmaksa dünya ve öbür âlemin sahibine perdedir. Yaratılmışlara dalmak, Yaratan'dan ayırır. Hangi yaratılmışa gönül kaptırırsan, ruh pencerene perde çekmiş olursun. Halka [yaratıklara] bakma. Dünyaya, kalpten sevgi gösterme. Hakk'tan gayri şeylere iltifat etme, onun kapısına varıncaya kadar böyle devam et. Sır adımlarını aç. Zühd hâlini geliştir. Her kötü histen soyun. O'nun varlığında hayran ol. O'ndan yardım iste. O'na sığın., O'na bak. Geçmişteki İlâhî bilginin hükmünü gözet. Kalbini O'na vardırmaya çabala. Sırrını O'na ilet, bunu gerçekleştirdiğin an, O'nun yakınlık eli seni tutar, kendine çeker. Yeni hayatla tevhid verir ve kalpler üzerine sultan olursun. Kalp âlemi tüm emrini senden alır. Hastalığı olursa şifasını sen verirsin, işte bundan sonra dünyaya bakman caiz olur. Bu üstün hâlleri benliğinde topla, sonra dünyaya dön...Velayet hâlinin işareti vardır; o işaretler velîlerin yüzlerinden okunur. Onu anlayış sahipleri sezer. O işaretler velayet hâlini anlatmaya yeter; dile ne hacet...Ruh esenliği dileyen, nefsini atsın... Malını kalbine koymasın... Neyi varsa Hak uğruna harcasın. Hamurdan ve sütten kıl alırcasına dünyayı iç âleminden atsın. Âhireti de aynı şekilde yapsın. Hakk'ın gayri şeylerden üryan olsun, işte o zaman her şeyin hakkı verilir. Dünya ve âhiretten gelecek şeyler gelir. Sen onların peşine koşmazsın. Dünya, yerinde otururken yanaşma; onu ayağa kaldır. Tepsiyi başı üstüne aldır; sonra al ye! Hakk'ın kapısına durana böyle hizmet edilir; çünkü büyüktür. Nefis, önünde el pençe divan duranı zelil eder, perişan eder. Nefse hâkim olanların hemen hepsi, istiğna sahibidir. Nefse ihtiyaç arz etmekten beridirler.İman yolcuları dünyayı yitirmeye gönüllüdür. Allah'tan her zaman hoşnut olurlar. Allah onlardan razı olduktan sonra âhiret onlara göre hiçtir. Onlar Allah'tan, Allah'ı talep ederler. Dünyalık şeylerin taksimli olduğunu bilirler; bu sebeple ona kalplerini kaptırmaktan vareste olurlar. Öbür âlemde vaad olunan cennet ve nimetlerin, sahipleri için ayrılmış olduğunu bildiklerinden onun da peşine düşmezler. İşleri O'nun içindir; O'nun zatından öteye bir talep sahibi değillerdir.Faraza onlar bir gün cennete girseler. Hak nurunu göremeyince hiçbir yere bakmazlar. Kalbinde maddî varlıklar besleyen, yalnız kalmayı ve huzura dalmayı elde edebilir mi?.. Halkı ve sebepleri tesirsiz görmeyen, peygamber kervanına katılamaz. O büyük zincire halka olamaz; olmak dileyen azla yetinmeli. Çoğu, kader eline bırakmalı. Dünyalığın azı da yeter. Çok malın olsa, çok mu yiyeceğini sanıyorsun? Rahat mı bulacağını ümit ediyorsun?..Çok şeyleri bulmak için taarruza geçme; yıkılırsın. Çok mal istenmeden gelirse iyi olur. Onun saklanması da kolaydır. Giderse üzülmezsin. Gece sabahlara kadar mal hesap edip uykunu kaçırmazsın, rahatın bozulmaz.Hasan-ı Basrî (Allah ondan razı olsun) şöyle der: “İnsanlara sözünle ve işinle öğüt ver.”Ey vaiz, iç âlemin temizliği ile insanlara öğüt ver. Kalbini nurlandır. Ve onun nuru ile halka nasihat et. İçin kirli olduğu zaman dışın süsü ile onlara öğüt vermeye kalkma. İman sahiplerinin kalbi yaratılmadan imanları yazıldı. Bu geçmişin bilgisidir. Bunun üzerinde durmak caiz değildir. Ona dayanarak hüküm yürütmek doğru olmaz.Kalplerimiz iman nuruna ermek için gayretli olursa, Rabbimiz bize onu verir. Dilerse, çalışmadan da... O bizim çalışma ve yorulma hâlimize acır ve nurunu nasip eder. Utanmaz mısınız; nasıl tevil eder, tebdile uğraşırsınız?.. Mevlâ, zâtını vasfetmiş; onu başkası ile değiştirmek sizin ne haddinize?.. Sizden önce gelen sahabeye ve onlara uyanlara yeten bir din, size nasıl yetmiyor? Aziz ve Celil olan Rabbimiz, yaratıcılık sıfatını Arş'da yerleştirmiştir. Bunun şekli ve benzeri yoktur; yokluğu da iddia edilemez.

Welcome to today's episode of Shrink for the Shy Guy with Dr. Aziz! If you've ever felt stuck, procrastinated, or told yourself “I should…” but still didn't follow through — this episode is for you. Dr. Aziz reveals the three powerful secrets to breaking out of avoidance and finally taking the action you know will move your life forward. Whether it's social confidence, career growth, health habits, or daily routines — it all comes back to one key truth: Confidence is a byproduct of action. In this episode, you'll discover: Why resistance, groaning, and procrastination are totally normal (and how to break through them) The surprising way your identity story might be keeping you stuck How to use pain as powerful leverage (yes, really!) The missing piece that makes it way easier to follow through Why pleasure in the future is the key to taking action today Dr. Aziz also shares his personal story of emotional pain, transformation, and how one pivotal night in his 20s changed everything. If you're ready to overcome avoidance and create a life that energizes and fulfills you, this episode will give you both the mindset and momentum to start now. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Do you often find yourself stuck in the cycle of procrastination, avoiding tasks that you know could improve your life? Whether it's taking social risks, having difficult conversations, or simply getting things done, we all face moments when it feels impossible to take action. In this post, I'm going to reveal the three secrets to breaking free from inaction and boosting your confidence. Secret #1: Recognize the Pattern The first step in overcoming procrastination and avoidance is to recognize the cycle you're in. It often starts with the feeling of fear—fear of failure, fear of judgment, or fear of discomfort. You know you should act, but instead, you avoid the task. You tell yourself “I should,” but you don't follow through. This internal tension leads to resistance, and eventually, you may find yourself stuck in a negative identity—thinking of yourself as someone who just can't follow through or is too scared to act. The first secret is to notice this pattern. Acknowledge that you're caught in it and make the decision to do something different. The more you notice it, the more you can break free from it and start acting from a place of empowerment, not fear. "Confidence is a byproduct of action. You won't feel confident until you take action." — Dr. Aziz Secret #2: Use Pain as Leverage Pain is one of the most powerful motivators for action. In fact, research shows that we are twice as motivated by pain as we are by pleasure. The key is to leverage pain in a constructive way. Ask yourself: What is the cost of inaction? If you keep avoiding something, where will it take you? In the case of social anxiety, it might be loneliness or missed career opportunities. By focusing on the pain of staying stuck, you can create a sense of urgency and motivate yourself to act. However, it's essential to not get lost in despair when reflecting on this pain. Instead, take ownership of the situation and realize that you can change things. When the pain of staying where you are exceeds the fear of the unknown, you'll finally take the leap. Secret #3: Focus on the Pleasure of Action While pain can push you to act, pleasure is what will keep you going. We often resist action because we focus on the discomfort of getting started, but if you shift your focus to the benefits of taking action, you'll find yourself motivated. For example, if you're avoiding a workout because it feels hard to start, remind yourself of how good you'll feel afterward—the energy, the sense of accomplishment, the pride in doing something for yourself. By training your mind to see the pleasure on the other side, you'll feel more compelled to take action. "Are you willing to be uncomfortable now to experience the extraordinary in your life?" — Dr. Aziz Taking Action: Your Next Step Now that you know the three secrets to taking action, it's time to put them into practice. Start by recognizing the patterns that hold you back, use pain and pleasure to motivate yourself, and take action even when it feels uncomfortable. If you want to make real progress in your life, the key is consistent action. The more you act, the more confidence you'll build. It's time to break free from the cycle of procrastination and start living boldly. Remember, confidence comes from doing—not waiting for the perfect moment or feeling ready. Take action today, and watch your confidence grow! You are capable of so much more than you realize. Keep going, and you'll soon be amazed at how far you can go. 4o mini

In today's episode, we continue the powerful conversation on overcoming the illusion that you're "not where you should be" in life. Dr. Aziz shares the fundamental error that keeps you stuck in feelings of inadequacy and pressure—and reveals a new way to free yourself from that cycle. You'll discover: -Why your circumstances don't have to define your happiness-The key shift that allows you to feel fulfilled now instead of waiting for external success-A powerful action step to release the pressure and step into self-compassion This episode is about reclaiming your confidence, finding peace in the present, and fueling sustainable success from a place of self-acceptance.--------------------------------------------------- Do you feel like you're stuck in a rut, endlessly comparing yourself to others, convinced you're not where you should be in life? If so, you're not alone. In this episode, Dr. Aziz shares some life-changing insights that will help you stop feeling inadequate and reclaim your peace of mind. The Illusion of "Where You Should Be" Many of us are burdened by a feeling that we're not living up to some societal standard. You might think: “I should be in a relationship by now,” or “I should have more money, a better job, a better house.” These thoughts weigh heavily on your self-esteem, leading you to feel less than, inadequate, and even ashamed. Dr. Aziz calls this the “fundamental error”: thinking that in order to feel okay, something in your life circumstances must change. “The solution is not in the circumstances. It's not out there. It's inside you.” This erroneous belief that something outside of us needs to change before we can feel peace is a major source of unnecessary suffering. When you feel like you're not enough as you are, you either shut down or try desperately to change everything all at once—and it still doesn't bring the fulfillment you seek. The Real Problem: Self-Gaslighting You might not even realize it, but when you feel like you're not where you should be in life, you're often gaslighting yourself. Dr. Aziz describes this as a cycle of comparing yourself to others and convincing yourself that you're not enough. Your inner “safety police” tells you to stay small to avoid risk—fear of failure, rejection, or criticism keeps you paralyzed. “I need something to be different right now in order to feel okay. But what if you don't?” This thought trap is designed to keep you from taking risks and living authentically. The truth is, nothing will change in a lasting way until you shift your inner dialogue and stop waiting for circumstances to be perfect before you feel okay. The Answer: Self-Compassion and Present Awareness How can you break free from this cycle? The solution lies in self-compassion. It's essential to start being kind to yourself and slow down. Take a moment to tune into the feelings of frustration, inadequacy, or longing—and be curious about them rather than trying to eliminate them. “Move towards the pain with curiosity and compassion. That's the key to healing.” When you can sit with your discomfort without judgment, you begin to fill the inner void that you've been desperately trying to fill with external circumstances. It's about becoming your own best friend, your own inner champion. The Action Step: Challenge the Stories Here's your action step for today: Start noticing the stories you tell yourself about what you need in order to feel okay. Ask yourself, “Is it true that I need this specific thing in my life to feel happy?” What if, just for today, you let go of the need for perfection and simply embraced where you are? By practicing this, you will slowly dismantle the false belief that you need something external to feel worthy or fulfilled. And when you do this consistently, you'll start to feel empowered to take action from a place of self-acceptance, rather than desperation. Final Thoughts: Freedom Awaits You don't have to wait for the perfect life circumstances to feel at peace. When you practice self-compassion and shift your mindset, you open the door to greater confidence and the ability to create the life you desire. You are already worthy. Start taking small steps today, and before you know it, you'll be well on your way to living the life you deserve. Remember: You're awesome just as you are.

Do you ever feel like you're behind in life? Like you're not where you should be? In today's episode, Dr. Aziz dives deep into the unconscious programming that fuels this feeling and how to break free from it. You'll learn: Why we constantly feel like we're falling short How societal and personal conditioning shape our expectations The key to shifting your mindset so you can feel good right now—without waiting for external success This episode is all about reclaiming control over your life, challenging the "drummer in the back of the bus," and finding joy before you reach the next milestone. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Have you ever felt like you're not where you should be in life? Like there's a destination you're supposed to reach, but no matter how hard you try, it feels out of your grasp? You're not alone. Many of us have faced these feelings of inadequacy, discouragement, or frustration when we feel that we haven't achieved everything we thought we would by a certain age or stage in life. In this episode, we'll explore why that happens and how to break free from these limiting beliefs to get to where you want to be—both in life and in your inner world. The Unconscious Forces at Play We often think we're in control of our lives. After all, we make decisions, set goals, and take action. But have you ever caught yourself doing something you didn't plan to do? Maybe eating something late at night you didn't even want, or acting out of frustration when you didn't mean to? If you've experienced this, you've been influenced by unconscious forces that are driving your behavior without you even realizing it. Carl Jung famously said, “Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.” This means that the patterns, beliefs, and conditioning we've developed throughout our lives are often controlling us, guiding us in ways that might not be aligned with our true desires. The Drummer in the Back of the Bus Think of your life as a bus, and you are the driver. But here's the catch: you're not driving alone. There's a whole group of characters in the back of the bus, influencing your decisions. These characters are your unconscious programming—the messages you've absorbed from society, family, and past experiences. Some of these voices might tell you that you're not good enough, not successful enough, or that you're falling behind in life. Imagine one of the voices on the bus is the "drummer"—the voice that constantly beats the rhythm of what's wrong, what's missing, and what you should have done by now. It's the voice that says, "You should have achieved more by now" or "You need to be in a relationship to be happy." The problem is, these unconscious voices drive us to make decisions based on fear and inadequacy. We feel the pressure to be perfect and chase after what society says we should want, but often, these desires are culturally conditioned and not entirely our own. Shifting from Fear to Freedom How do you break free from the constant chatter of this internal drummer? The first step is awareness. You need to listen to the voices that tell you you're not where you should be, and ask them questions. What do you want me to do? Why do I need to achieve this specific thing to feel okay? By bringing attention to these voices, you start to question whether they are truly yours, or if they're just a product of your upbringing or societal expectations. Once you understand these voices are not the truth of who you are, you can begin to quiet them. And here's the key: true freedom comes when you recognize that you don't need to achieve or have everything in place to be happy. The pressure to be perfect, to meet certain external standards, is what keeps you stuck in a cycle of self-criticism and frustration. Your Action Step This week, take some time to listen to the drummer in the back of your bus. Pay attention to the voice that tells you you're not enough. Write down what it says. Then, question it. Challenge its validity. Is it really true? Can you still be happy without meeting those external standards? The more you do this, the more you'll create space for your true self to emerge. You don't need to meet every external expectation to feel worthy. True growth comes from aligning with your authentic desires, not from chasing what others expect of you. In the next episode, we'll explore how to liberate yourself from this inner conflict and step into a life filled with joy and authenticity. Stay tuned for more!

Are you constantly worried about hurting other people's feelings? Does this fear keep you from speaking up, setting boundaries, or asking for what you really want? In today's episode, Dr. Aziz breaks down how this pattern of over-cautiousness can actually be harming you—and how to shift into a healthier, more authentic way of being. You'll learn the crucial difference between hurting and harming others, how to release unnecessary guilt, and why disappointing people is a normal and necessary part of life. If you've ever struggled with people-pleasing, this episode is your invitation to break free. -------------------------------------------------- Today, we're diving into a fear that many of us struggle with: the fear of hurting others. Whether it's in relationships, work, or social settings, many people worry about causing discomfort for others, and in doing so, end up hurting themselves. Let's explore how this fear works and how to break free from it to become more authentically you. The Difference Between Hurting and Harming It's natural to care about how others feel and want to avoid causing harm, but we often confuse hurting someone with harming them. Hurting is an emotional reaction—someone might feel upset or disappointed by something we say or do. Harming, on the other hand, is when we intentionally cause damage, like bullying or being cruel on purpose. For example, in a situation where someone misses a deadline at work, saying something like, “You were supposed to get this to me by Thursday. It's now Friday, and it's not up to standard,” might cause them to feel hurt, but it's not harmful. It's an honest expression of what happened. But many of us avoid doing this because we don't want to hurt someone's feelings. The Fear That Holds Us Back The real issue comes when we fear causing any discomfort or disappointment in others. We avoid honest conversations because we think it might hurt someone's feelings, and in the process, we become stuck in a cycle of people-pleasing. This happens often in romantic relationships. You might avoid telling your partner what you truly want to do on the weekend because you don't want to disappoint them. Maybe you say yes to something you don't want to do just to keep the peace. But in the long run, this doesn't serve anyone. You're suffocating your own needs while sacrificing your well-being to avoid a moment of discomfort for the other person. The Myth of Perfection in Relationships A significant part of this fear is rooted in the belief that we must always keep others happy. This stems from an unrealistic expectation that we should never disappoint or upset anyone. However, the reality is that healthy relationships—whether romantic, platonic, or professional—are built on honesty and boundaries, not on never causing anyone any discomfort. I once had a client who feared expressing his needs to his spouse because he didn't want to hurt her feelings. This fear ultimately hurt him and their relationship. He wasn't able to share his preferences and, in turn, felt like he wasn't being true to himself. And the irony is that when we deny ourselves, it doesn't lead to harmony—it creates inner resentment and can damage relationships in the long run. Shifting Your Perspective Here's the truth: you don't need to be afraid of causing discomfort. Discomfort is a natural part of any relationship. It's a signal that we are growing, evolving, and being real with each other. Instead of fearing it, we need to embrace it. When you stop overthinking and start being honest, you allow space for true connection and authenticity to thrive. Your Action Step: Embrace Discomfort Your action step is to start small. Identify one thing you've been holding back—something you've been avoiding because you're afraid it might hurt someone's feelings. Maybe it's a boundary you need to set or a desire you haven't expressed. Whatever it is, take that step today. If guilt arises, that's okay. Remember, you're not trying to harm anyone. You're simply honoring your own needs and feelings. The more you practice this, the more natural it will become. You'll begin to realize that it's not about being mean; it's about being true to yourself, and this leads to stronger, more authentic relationships. By shifting your mindset and embracing your true self, you'll create deeper, more meaningful connections and start living with freedom. You're allowed to take up space, express your needs, and set boundaries without feeling guilty. Start today and watch the transformation unfold.

Feeling stuck, frustrated, or like nothing you're doing is working? Discouragement is part of every growth journey—but how you handle it determines whether you break through or give up. In this episode, Dr. Aziz reveals the hidden reasons why we feel discouraged and how your mind is wired to shut you down when challenges arise. Learn the powerful questions you must ask yourself to shift from discouraged to determined and keep making progress toward your goals. If you've ever felt like giving up, listen now—this episode could change everything. ------------------ We've all been there: feeling excited, optimistic, and ready to take on the world, only to face moments of discouragement. The truth is, on any growth journey, there will be highs and lows. The key to lasting success lies not in avoiding those lows but in how you handle them when they come. The Power of Staying in the Game Just like in investing, success in confidence-building isn't about timing the market—it's about time in the market. In other words, consistency is what matters. If you're committed to growing your confidence, it's not about doing something quickly and checking it off your list. It's about staying in the process, even when things get tough. But here's the catch: the more action you take, the more likely you are to face discouragement. That's by design. When you start actively putting yourself out there—whether it's in dating, your career, or speaking up more in meetings—you open yourself up to setbacks. And when those setbacks happen, that discouragement can feel like a ton of bricks. Why Does Discouragement Hit So Hard? Discouragement hits hardest when you start to face your fears and take risks. When you're playing it safe, like I did in my own life during my battle with social anxiety, you can avoid discouragement. But once you start stepping up, putting yourself out there, and truly engaging in the process, discouragement is inevitable. Why? Because there's a part of you—the safety police—that wants to avoid discomfort at all costs. When you try something new, especially if it's a risk, that part of you freaks out and says, Whoa, stop, stay small, stay safe. That's when the discouragement feels so intense. It's designed to make you stop, retreat, and never try again. Shifting Your Response to Discouragement Here's the crucial point: How you respond to discouragement will determine how far you go on your confidence journey. If you give in to it and retreat, you'll never see the growth you want. But if you can push through and keep going, that's when the real transformation happens. To break through discouragement, here's what you need to do: Name What's Happening: When you feel discouraged, recognize it for what it is. Acknowledge that the discouragement is real but doesn't define you. It's just part of the process. Get Compassionate with Yourself: Take a moment to connect with yourself. Put one hand on your chest, one on your belly, and take deep breaths. Acknowledge the discouragement with compassion—Yeah, it feels tough right now, but that doesn't mean I'm stuck. Then, shift your focus. Ask the Key Questions: Why do I want this? How bad do I want it? Am I willing to do what it takes to achieve it? The power of answering these questions lies in the fact that when you connect with your deeper values and purpose, your discouragement fades into determination. Your Action Step If you're feeling discouraged right now, perfect timing—this is exactly when you can apply these tools. Take a moment to ask yourself: What's a goal I really care about? Answer the questions above honestly. The more connected you are to your “why,” the stronger your resolve will be to push through challenges. If you're not feeling discouraged at the moment, think of a goal you've been working on, and run yourself through the same process. You'll be amazed at how clarity and determination come flooding back. The road to confidence isn't always easy, but when you stay in the game and choose to keep going, you'll look back and be amazed at how far you've come. Keep going, and don't give up—you're building something extraordinary.

What if the way you talk to yourself is the biggest factor in your confidence? In this episode, Dr. Aziz reveals powerful self-talk strategies to transform how you feel about yourself and how you show up in the world. Learn how to shift from toxic, self-critical thoughts to an empowering, unstoppable mindset. Discover the key to steering your inner dialogue and why the words you choose—both in your head and out loud—can radically impact your confidence, success, and relationships. If you're ready to upgrade your self-talk and unlock high confidence, listen now! ---------------------------------------------------------- Have you ever felt that rush of confidence, only to have it fade away when you stop doing the things that made you feel good? Maybe you're sleeping better, eating right, exercising, and suddenly—boom—you feel great! But then, when you let those healthy habits slip, your energy dips, and you wonder why you feel worse. The same thing can happen with one of the most powerful tools for confidence: self-talk. Today, we're diving into a simple but game-changing tool that many people forget to use or fail to use consistently. Ready to take control of your confidence? Let's get started. What Is Self-Talk and Why Does It Matter for Confidence? Self-talk is the internal conversation you have with yourself. It's what you say in your head when you face challenges, make mistakes, or take risks. Most of us experience this as a continuous stream of thoughts, some positive, but many negative, critical, and judgmental. The issue? Our self-talk shapes how we feel about ourselves and how we show up in the world. Negative self-talk—like “I'm not good enough” or “I'll never succeed”—leads to insecurity and low confidence. But here's the catch: You can shift this conversation. “The way you talk to yourself has a direct impact on your nervous system and your body. If you want more confidence, you have to talk to yourself differently.” When you replace negative self-talk with positive, encouraging thoughts, you'll start to feel more empowered. It's like having a personal coach who cheers you on every step of the way. And the best part? You have the power to be that coach for yourself. Why Do We Talk to Ourselves This Way? Have you noticed that most of the time, our self-talk is critical, especially when we're nervous or insecure? If you're about to speak up in a meeting, go on a date, or make a big decision, you might hear thoughts like, “I'm not good enough” or “What if they don't like me?” This negative loop is common, but it's not real. It's just your mind trying to protect you from potential failure or rejection. But here's the problem: that self-criticism doesn't protect you. It holds you back. It makes you play small and prevents you from taking risks or stepping into your full potential. The Power of Shifting Your Self-Talk The real magic happens when you consciously choose to shift your self-talk. Instead of listening to that harsh, toxic coach in your head, you get to take control and start cheering yourself on. “The only way to change your confidence is to change your internal narrative.” Here's how you can do it: Notice the toxic self-talk. Catch yourself when you're being overly critical. Challenge those thoughts. Ask yourself, Is this true? and How would I speak to a friend who was feeling the same way? Replace it with positive, empowering self-talk. Say things like, I've got this. I am enough. I am capable of handling this. The more you practice this, the more natural it will feel. It's like training a muscle—the more you use it, the stronger it gets. Take Action: The Key to Building Confidence Here's your action step: Pick a situation in your life where you feel insecure or lack confidence. Maybe it's a work presentation, a social event, or a tough conversation with a colleague. Step 1: Write down the default self-talk you have in that situation. What are you telling yourself? Step 2: Now, write down the optimal self-talk you'd like to have. What would a supportive coach or a good friend say to you? Step 3: Start repeating that new self-talk to yourself before and during the situation. Watch how your confidence starts to shift. The more you practice this, the more you'll notice a radical shift in how you show up in the world. Your confidence will increase, and you'll feel empowered to take on new challenges and opportunities. A Final Thought: You Are Your Best Coach You don't need to wait for someone else to validate you. You can be your own biggest cheerleader. Start speaking to yourself in a way that builds you up, and you'll start seeing powerful results in your life. Remember, confidence isn't about waiting for everything to be perfect. It's about taking action despite the doubts and fears. You've got this.

What if the way you see yourself—incapable, unworthy, not enough—isn't actually real? In this episode, Dr. Aziz exposes the greatest deception holding you back: the false identity you've been playing for years. Discover why you unconsciously cling to this limiting self-perception and how it's keeping you stuck in fear, self-doubt, and hesitation. More importantly, learn how to break free and start showing up as the confident, bold version of yourself—starting today. If you're ready to challenge the biggest lie you've been telling yourself and finally step into your power, tune in now! ------------------------------------------------------------- Have you ever felt like you're not good enough? Maybe it's in your career, in relationships, or even in social situations. That nagging voice in your head tells you you're not attractive enough, not successful enough, not worthy enough. What if I told you that this “not enough” story is a huge lie—and you're the one telling it to yourself? In this post, I'll reveal the biggest deception you've been playing on yourself for years, and how to break free from it to create a life where you show up boldly, confidently, and authentically. The “Not Enough” Trap: A Story You've Been Telling Yourself If you've ever felt like you're not enough—whether that's in terms of attractiveness, success, or social worth—you're not alone. Many of us have an internal narrative that says, “I'm not good enough, and I never will be.” This belief can show up in many areas: “I'm not good enough to be in a relationship,” or “I'll never be successful, so why bother trying?” I used to believe this story myself. As a young man, I thought, “I'm unattractive, and no one will want to date me.” I even told myself that I couldn't possibly be successful because I wasn't the kind of person who achieved big things. But here's the secret: That story was never true. It was a character I was playing in my mind, but it wasn't who I truly was. “You are convincing yourself that you are small, incapable, and not enough. And the truth is, that story isn't real.” Why We Keep Playing Small The big lie that keeps us stuck is that we need to believe we're not enough because it feels safe. If we can convince ourselves we're incapable, then we never have to take the risks that could challenge that belief. We avoid uncertainty and stick to the comfort of our “small self” identity. This is why many people avoid going after their dreams or speaking up in a room full of people. If you believe you're not worthy, you won't try to start that business, ask someone out, or create the content that could change the world. You stay small to protect yourself from failure and rejection. “The illusion of stability comes from avoiding uncertainty, but it's not real. It's only a safe feeling until it isn't.” How to Break Free from the “Not Enough” Story Here's the truth: The “not enough” story isn't serving you—it's keeping you from the life you're truly capable of living. To change this, you need to stop playing the character of small, incapable you. Instead, ask yourself: What would I do today if I truly believed I was enough? Let's say you believe you're not attractive enough. What would you do if you knew you were attractive and worthy of love? You'd put yourself out there more, right? You'd take more chances, go on dates, make new friends. You'd show up fully as yourself. That's the power of shifting your belief. “When you stop believing in the lie of not being enough, you'll start doing the things that prove you are enough.” A Call to Action: Start Living the Truth If you've been stuck in the “not enough” story for too long, it's time to rewrite it. Your action step is simple: Pick one area of your life where you've been holding back because you believe you're not enough. Then, ask yourself, If I truly believed I was enough in this area, what would I do differently today? Maybe it's stepping up in a meeting, asking someone out, or starting a project you've been putting off. Whatever it is, take that step. The more you do, the more you'll prove to yourself that the story isn't true—and the more confident you'll become. The truth is, you are enough. And it's time to start living like it.
