In this episode, I delve into the pervasive issue of extraversion bias and its impact on mental health. Many introverts grapple with a world tailored to extrovert ideals, often leading to feelings of misalignment and pressure to fit in. We know that this societal preference can significantly affect someone's mental well-being, leaving we introverts feeling inadequate at various stages of our life. I share my perspective on how aligning with dominant role models who exude confidence can exacerbate conformity bias and contribute to an environment that feels oppressive. I explore strategies for recognising these biases and avoiding 'comparison'-itis; the habit of unhealthy self-comparison that fuels anxiety. I then share why reciprocal support networks are important for maintaining our mental wellness.   *** Key Points *** Recognise Extraversion Bias Avoid 'Comparison'-itis at all costs Build intentional support network  #MentalHealth #Introverts #FlourishingIntroverts   *** Resources *** Visit https://hub.flourishingintroverts.com/resourcesp for tools and resources mentioned during the podcast.

Matt Church shares his revolutionary approach to building a fulfilling business centered around your unique expertise and preferences rather than chasing market opportunities. He explains why the "third choice" of running a practice (not just a job or business) creates more freedom, impact, and alignment with who you truly are. Key Takeaways You have three choices: get a job, start a business, or run a practice – and running a practice around what you know gives you more control and fulfillment Your differentiation comes from preference and selection, not trying to broadcast how special you are to everyone • Work from your essence, expertise, and experience to create something unique without the pressure of being completely different from everyone else The "vacation test" is brilliant: would you go on vacation with your clients? If not, they're probably not your ideal clients About Matt Church Matt Church is one of the world's leading strategic thinkers and speakers, known for helping people prepare for tomorrow by taking action today. As the founder of Thought Leaders™, he's dedicated to developing leaders who make a real difference. From his early days as Australian Fitness Leader of the Year to being inducted into the Professional Speaker Hall of Fame, Matt has consistently pushed the boundaries of what's possible.  He's a bestselling author whose work has been published in 5 countries, and he's recognized as one of the top 21 most influential people in the speaking industry globally.

It's a form of false humility and it's not what you were born to do. It is a privilege to be self-expressed and it's a privilege to do so in service to others." - Matt Church "Action precedes confidence. It's much better to launch, to ship, to put yourself on the other side of a declaration and then figure it out. Because we can spend a lot of time on this side getting it right, going ta-da! And it falls flat on its face." - Matt Church "The times we've been most successful is when we've been the most focused – on the audience, the product, the offer, the goal. It's easier to market.

Have you ever had a project derailed by a shame attack? Shame can sweep through, telling us we are not worthy, acceptable, or enough. It can be amplified by comparisonitis, where we judge our messy insides with our perception of other peoples' shiny exteriors. Val Nelson, a career and business coach, specialises in working with highly sensitive and introverted individuals. She wrote this article about dealing with comparisonitis and shame attacks, which I was excited to dive into with her. Many people have felt like black swans in a world that often fails to provide the right conditions for HSPs to thrive. While shame is not exclusive to quiet and gentle souls, it can be particularly challenging for those who have learned to view their natural needs and preferences as a problem to hide, dismiss, or overcome. So I invited Val onto The Gentle Rebel Podcast to explore how shame can cause us to shrink back and hide from their dreams, ambitions, and needs. I wanted to explore the words "comparisonitis" and "comparonoia," which can leave us feeling isolated and alone as we look at the world around us and tell ourselves unsupportive stories. In Our Conversation, Val and I Explore: The nature of shame attacks and the signs of one appearing How humour and playfulness are one of our most significant resources Why it's so hard to give ourselves what we need in the face of shame (even when we know what we ought to do) Personal experiences of shame attacks Val and I have been through recently How to listen to the message beneath the noise when we feel like things are not going to plan What it means to take ourselves less seriously (without undermining the integrity of our work) Over to You What are you taking away from this episode? Have you experienced a shame attack? I'd love to hear from you in the comments, via a message, or through social media.

If so, I would love to help you develop a strategy to use through a Pick The Lock call.

Comparisonitis is the thief of joy, it's the energy of unworthiness, as compared to others or to where we think we should be, and it's a huge problem when it comes to stepping forward into your power in life and business. We all do it - but what can we do about it? I'm talking this through because it's something I see in clients and women I have been journeying with in my own studies, and it's origin and impact can be subtle, yet run deep. It can stop us believing in ourselves, trusting ourselves, and fulfilling the soul purpose we're here to live out. It can keep us poor, stifled, unfulfilled, and afraid. And it's time we cut through the BS to be more of our wild, powerful selves, so we can be the leaders we need to be, and be supported to do what we're here to do. I'm talking through:Why we compare ourselves as a root cause and some of the common triggers that paralyse us,How it shows up in my menstrual cycle, and how I can watch out for this in my life and biz,The harmful effects of comparing ourselves to others, and the ways it keeps us small and scared, Embodied, cyclical and energetic strategies for breaking free from this energy when it strikes, so we can step forward and own our individual worth, magick and power. Tune in for a pep talk, self-awareness, and tools to shift from stuck to sovereign leader!LinksCyclical Business Mastermind Waitlist UK: Cyclical Business 1-day Retreat tickets (18th May 24)Class: Your Cycle, Your Business Super PowerFind the full show notes including links and  transcript here >Thank you for listening, it means such a lot to receive your ratings, reviews, and stories of how this podcast supports you.

How to cure comparisonitis starts by understanding the cause and that this isn't just a “you” problem. It's something that impacts you, your confidence, your sense of self, and your well-being, so it feels deeply personal. Since it's internal, comparisonitis feels like a habit of comparing yourself to others in one or multiple areas. It's usually triggered in an area that already feels endangered in some way – often things like financial success or belonging. It turns into a cycle of validation seeking where you feel inadequate or less than, doubt yourself and your abilities and seek validation from others which tends to further erode self-esteem. It's also framed as an individual issue even when noted as being exacerbated by things like social media. But you can tell there's more to it both in what feels threatened and how it's exacerbated.In this episode of Unlimited, I'm exploring the causes of and how to cure comparisonitis.Some of what I'll cover in this episode include:Losing my self and self-trustSacrificing authenticity for belongingSurvival mode upholds societal normsEngaging individual and collective healing4 steps to recalibrate your inner compassThank you for listening!

My students are the best testament to its success.   So I invited 3 of them on to share their stories with you in bonus episodes throughout the weekend! Yesterday, you heard Aliya's story and today, we're turning it over to my client, Ashleigh.   Ashleigh enrolled in my now retired Wardrobe Refresh Program (which followed the same step-by-step framework as HER Style Collective in a DIY format) a little over a year ago while she was pregnant with twins and juggling her sweet toddler, married life, working from home and all the things. It was a big leap for Ashleigh to invest in herself and take on this program. Since then, we've been able to design the perfect Personal Color Palette for her as well and it's been a joy to see her success in implementing what she's learned.   Listen in today as Ashleigh shares about her struggles to adapt her style after transitioning to motherhood and working from home, having a lack of confidence in her wardrobe, and a pretty common case of comparisonitis. You'll also get to hear about how she learned to trust her style intuition, reworked her wardrobe without having to buy lots of new pieces, and finally stopped buying the same black t-shirt over and over and started shopping with strategy and intention!   I know you're going to love this conversation, friend.

The timing of this episode is pretty ironic. I was walking home from dropping Vinnie off at school this morning and couldn't shake this ominous, anxious feeling. I was thinking about some projects I have coming up and had these little wee bits of self-doubt creeping in. Then I popped on to social media to see that the entire rest of the world 100% had their lives figured out on this Monday morning and my wee bits of self-doubt blossomed into a rapid onset of Comparisonitis. A few hours later, I sat down to look at my content calendar and see that I'm supposed to talk to you all about positive thinking today. Haha. I see you Universe - just smiling down on me…  So, here's the thing. Positive thinking is a critically important coping skill and the advantages of positive thinking cannot be overstated. But those of us who tout it certainly are not incapable of waking up with a case of the Mondays, as I did today. The power of positive thinking is that you can use it as a tool to navigate a tough moment or as a way to ground yourself #everydamnday. It can be a cornerstone of your life if you so choose.   When it comes to the long-term integration of positive thinking as a coping skill, the advantages of positive thinking become glaring and beautifully evident. In fact, there are 5 advantages of positive thinking that are especially impactful across your lifetime.  5 Advantages of Positive Thinking: Resiliency and grit More rewarding personal and professional lives Enhanced relationships and kindness toward others Improved physical health, esp heart health and immunity Decreased symptoms of depression and anxiety* *This is definitely not to suggest that positive thinking is a treatment for clinical depression or anxiety. We talk this through in the episode. If you are experiencing symptoms of depression or anxiety, please talk to your doctor.  In this episode, I talk you through 5 advantages of positive thinking and 4 ways to use positive thinking as routine coping skills in your daily life.  Thank you to our sponsors this month: Fearless Finance: Get on-demand, comprehensive financial planning by the hour without all the headaches, high fees, and commitments that come with traditional financial advisors. Go to fearlessfinance.com and use the code SHAMELESS to save $50 on your first planning meeting.

The first step to self-acceptance is to STOP unhealthy comparison. As humans we are going to compare ourselves to others. It is in our nature to watch others. This is how we learn. But, if we look long enough, we will find someone who has done more, who has more & who seems to have it all together.  In the eating disorder world, comparing your journey to someone else's does NOTHING but rob your TRUTH. In today's show, I discuss 6 strategies to help you stop the comparisonitis, so that you can start showing up & comparing you vs. you. You have so much to give to the world. When you are captivated with purpose, you won't be stuck in comparison. Do you need a break-up with social media, so you can experience a breakthrough in your recovery?! If so, this could be your saving grace.
