Looking At My Upbringing And My Self Sabotage

Your upbringing has a massive influence on your whole life. And in this episode I dig into my background and some of my thoughts on where my self-sabotage may have started.
The environment we grow up in and the lessons we learn from our parents shapes our lives.
Supportive and loving homes often help us develop confidence and good social skills.
However, my upbringing was nothing like that and now I'm uncovering issues that I hadn't even contemplated until recently.
My father was a petty criminal (not a very good one) and my brothers were both taken into care.
There was no moral compass and no guidance on what was right or wrong.
As a result I grew up not fully appreciating the consequences of my actions.
The upshot is that I've developed a self-sabotage approach to life.
