S2 E07: The Concept of Being Humble

This episode explores how the idea of being “humble” or a “good girl” can sometimes hold women back from reaching their full potential. The conversation highlights that while humility is often encouraged culturally, it can lead to downplaying achievements, avoiding visibility, and not speaking up for yourself, especially in professional and personal spaces.  

A key insight is that confidence and self belief are not negative traits, they are essential for growth and success. If you do not talk about your work, share your achievements, or step into visibility, others may never recognize your value. The episode encourages shifting from the belief that “my work will speak for itself” to actively owning and expressing your contributions.

The episode also reframes the idea of being “selfish” as something positive. Prioritizing yourself, your growth, and your needs allows you to show up more fully for others. By becoming aware of limiting beliefs around humility and consciously choosing to let them go, you can step into your power more confidently. Ultimately, success requires visibility, self trust, and the willingness to take up space without holding yourself back.
