Episode 339: When Success Feels Scary
Description
Let's talk about something most people won't admit out loud…
Success feels scary.
You think fear of failure is what holds you back — but for many women, it's actually fear of success.
That quiet voice that says:
"If things are going this well, the other shoe's about to drop."
"If I relax, I'll lose it all."
"If I'm not fixing a problem… something must be wrong."
In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on my own experience with fear of success — how I caught myself inventing problems after selling out my mastermind and how I shifted out of it.
We'll talk about:
- Why your brain resists things going well
- How we subconsciously create "problems" to feel safe
- What to do when you can't fully enjoy your wins
- How to spot fear of success before it sabotages your next breakthrough
If you've ever hit a milestone and immediately started worrying something bad was coming next, this conversation will hit home.
