253. The Trap of “I Deserve More”
Description
There’s a quiet heartbreak that comes from doing everything right and still feeling overlooked. When the mindset of “I deserve more” creeps in, it can fuel bitterness, comparison, and self-doubt. In this raw and personal conversation, Anna shares the emotional toll of chasing recognition and what it took to reclaim her power through gratitude.
Join Anna and Tim as they unpack the difference between deserving and entitlement, what happens when hard work doesn’t pay off, and how to move forward when life doesn’t meet your expectations. This episode is an honest look at ego, effort, and what it really means to show up.
This Episode Covers:
- How “I deserve this” thinking breeds resentment.
- The difference between entitlement and earned pride.
- When putting in the reps still doesn’t get you picked.
- Anna’s vulnerable truth about podcast envy and staying grounded.
- The trap of comparing your path to someone else’s progress.
- Why gratitude builds self-esteem and entitlement erodes it.
- What it means to be entrusted rather than owed.
- Power moves to shift from deserving to receiving.
Until next time, here's to deeper connections and personal growth.
