The "I'm Not Good Enough" Lie - Stories We Tell Ourselves (Part 2)

Have you ever stopped to notice the stories playing in your mind, the ones shaping your choices and fueling your actions every day? This is part two of our deep dive into the stories we tell ourselves. If you missed part one, go back and catch it—it’s worth it!




Today’s episode is recorded from an airport, and I’m taking you on another adventure as I share real stories, insights, and a bit of travel excitement.


In part one, we uncovered the belief that we need to earn rest, and now we’re exploring the deep-rooted narrative of “I’m not good enough.” Whether it’s a big goal like losing weight, overcoming chronic pain, or landing a dream job, the surprising truth is that when we finally achieve it, many of us feel like we don’t deserve it.


It’s wild how this feeling creeps in, affecting everyone from athletes to everyday folks chasing their dreams. It’s time to rewrite these narratives. You’ve worked hard, you’re enough, and you deserve to celebrate every win. I’m sharing a few stories from my clients and personal experiences, unpacking why it feels like reaching the goal doesn’t bring the satisfaction we expect, and how to start embracing your success.


I’m also touching on why we care so much about other people’s opinions and how to break free from that mindset.


Remember: you’re good enough, you deserve to feel joy, and it’s okay to celebrate yourself without guilt.


I’d love to hear what stories come up for you—drop me a message on Instagram or TikTok.

Our success in our healing journey, whether pain or chronic illness, starts with our mindset. Be careful of the things you tell yourself.


Butthole Breathers, you are enough and you deserve to live your best life.
