___________
Do you ever feel like you're never good enough? You're not alone-97% of people in a recent poll admitted they sometimes, often, or always feel this way. While it's a common struggle, it doesn't have to be your reality, and changing this mindset isn't as hard as you might think.
In this video, we'll explore what "good enough" really means and how you might be setting unrealistic standards for yourself. We'll delve into how comparing yourself to others, chasing perfection, and waiting for external validation can keep you stuck in a cycle of self-doubt. Instead, we'll discuss practical steps to help you start building a strong foundation of self-worth-think of it like constructing a house, one brick at a time.
Join me as we uncover how to shift your perspective, embrace your own journey, and find the courage to be imperfect. It's time to stop letting these feelings hold you back and start recognizing your inherent value. Remember, being "good enough" is a decision you can make today.

When she’s not helping her clients and students increase their emotional intelligence and mental strength, she’s out on some kind of adventure with her three children in Vancouver, Canada.
Thank you for talking to us for free, some of us don’t have access to free therapy or can afford one. So thank you. I really needed to hear these things! I do want help! That’s why I am here.
The Yoga Class example is very relevant. It is not a competition. Each student is there to improve him/herself.
Yessss! If only we approached more of life like that.
My thoughts and notes on Julia’s UA-cam video (10/25/24):
Feel Like You’re Never Good Enough?
One thing that I want to work at is my belief in my ability to travel the world, and specifically to make it to Canada someday so that I could make it to a Big Shift Live event. I don’t have to have it all figured out right now, I just need to take one step at a time, like one brick at a time. It is okay that I never traveled alone before or flown in an airplane before or rode in a train before. That is part of the learning experience. Yes, there are other things that it takes. It takes money, time off, organizational skills, passport...etc...
It is understandable that I would want to learn this because I never had the opportunity before or reason to travel. Yes, earlier this year, I wanted to try and put myself out there and make a first step towards to see if it was at all possible to go to Canada this year, but life can also throw us a curveball and my dad’s health took a turn for the worse and I needed to be there for him and for my family. I lost his him this year and I needed to be around for my mother and to take care of things around here. That’s okay. I wanted to be here.
So, letting go of my imperfection, sharing this here, and say, yes, I don’t know how to travel or have the expense to travel someday, but it is in my awareness and when that moment comes, I can try and take that first step again.
Here are my notes:
Feel Like You're Never Good Enough?
*What are the criteria to feel good enough? Do you even know what it takes to be good enough?
*Feeling good enough isn't define but unachievable or undefine goals.
*Feeling good enough is like laying one brick at a time to build a beautiful brick house.
*Ask questions "What does it mean to be good enough and what does it take?"
*You can decide to feel good enough.
*We are worthy because we were born and that is the only criteria required.
What prevents us from feeling good enough?
*Comparison
*Marketing & advertisements
*Social Media
*Parents Expectations
*Perfectionism.
What can we do?
*Audit your social media consumption.
*What are you consuming?
*How much are you consuming it.
*How do you feel when you go away from consuming it?
*Take stock at where you are instead of looking at where you are not.
*Having things or being at a certain place doesn't make you feel good enough. Good enough isn't a destination. Not "When then…I'll feel good enough."
*Look back at how far you have come.
*Who you are from the inside and showing up on the outside.
*Where you are and who you are now.
*Keep your eyes on your own journey. Don't diminish your own journey by comparing yourself to others journey.
*Invest yourself into the things you value, and you love.
*Catch those comparison thoughts and bring them back to your values.
*You don't have to be perfect.
*You don't have to be a perfect adult, athlete, student, worker parent…etc…
*Just start and don't worry about being good at something at first. You start as a beginner. You put the effort in, and you learn and grow.
*Not going for perfect, we are going for good enough.
*Let yourself fail then get back up and try again.
*Just show up and try.
*You can be imperfect, make mistakes and fail.
*Failing doesn't make me a failure.
*Letting good enough be good enough.
*Don't focus only on the outcome.
*It is not about the destination; it is about the journey.
*Good enough is not a destination, it is a decision in this moment.
Inspirational Quote:
" The most important courage that we can get, is the courage to be imperfect." - Alfred Adler.
Good enough equals acceptance by others (external validation). The problem is that you can't control how others think or feel. I suggest internal validation (self esteem?). Don't settle. Break the cycle. Rebel (individuate). We got this. Let's go! 😉
I want to be as Wise as You !!!
You can be, you just have to study psychology incessantly for 15 years. lol.
Thank you, Julia! I feel like I need to listen to this on repeat. I truly appreciate you sharing your wisdom and encouragement. 💕🙏
I'm really glad this one connected Cheryl. And thank you for your generous words.
I feel like I understand this topic so much better!
I'm so glad to hear it. Thanks for watching.
I have a history of feeling like I'm not enough and it came from others who didn't think I was. They didn't phrase it that way but the message got received. Here's something I learned from people like this: You can return the favor. You don't owe it to them to treat them like they're enough either. You also don't need to keep them in your life.
Former gold shifter here. I became single at age 40 and stayed that way for 20 years. An old friend reached out to me after she became single. We dated (long distance) for six months before falling apart. I joined the shift society and through that realized I was a people pleaser. Working through the courses helped me change that behavior and realized that I'm good enough for me.I'm content and happy with myself and my life. I tried dating a couple of other women (no intimacy) but it seemed I was not good enough for them. I canceled all of my social media accounts and just stopped dating altogether. At 66 I'm satisfied with my life alone. I do miss having someone to share my life with but I'm only occasionally lonely but I refuse to trade my peace for the inevitable drama that comes with trying to have a relationship.
I have been feeling this way at my workplace for a few weeks now. I am so glad you posted this video. Thank you, Julia!

U talk about things that so many people haven't been allowed to .A man who goes without a woman is a cursed man. Take my word for it.
Same
Can you say more about that? I'm not quite following.
I am afraid to start a new personal relationship. And not being good enough. 😢
Can you make a video about emotional pain due to being left/break up? I struggle a lot with it and wish there was a way to alleviate the pain. My self esteem is shattered because he wanted sb else
I don’t try anything new that people see me do. Because I’m terrified of being made fun of.
Becca, have you been made fun of often?
