Here is what Michelle Obama, Maya Angelou and I have in common (NOT what you *think*)

Confession time: I frequently compare myself to people I admire. 

Especially Black women. Women of color who have faced deep levels of racism and sexism. Like Beyoncé, Michelle Obama, Maya Angelou...

I put myself down, and put them on a pedestal. And I think to myself: “I’ll never feel as confident as them”

Can you relate? Do you compare yourself? To that friend who seems to have it alllll going for them? Or that coworker who just always has it together. Like, do they ever get insecure or stressed? 

It’s hard not to compare yourself to people who are doing the things you want to do because in a way you feel like you want to be them. 

Here is the thing you need to know:

Michelle Obama feels UNWORTHY. Still today she shares how she deals with imposter syndrome (read that again if you need to - yes the former First Lady of the United States).

Maya Angelou felt INSECURE. Despite winning hundreds of awards, she thought her next book would be a failure.

The difference between you and the person you admire is that they dare to take a risk, and believe in themselves, even when they feel like an imposter.

Comparing yourself eats away at you. Your confidence deteriorates and you start to feel like a fraud. The limiting beliefs pile up and make you question what you're really capable of.

But here’s the thing, they’re all lies! The truth is, you already have everything you need to live your best life. 

Start seeing THE Maya Angelou inside of you! (or whomever you look up to)

If you’re comparing yourself, I’m sure it’s because you have a desire to be the very best you can be. You have a drive, a hunger to be successful not just in terms of a career, but the way you live your life. 

You own the rights to access your potential. 

Ready to end the comparison game?

Join me for a completely free Masterclass happening next Wednesday!🎉

As n’betweeners, the world is hard on us, but often we are harder on ourselves. 

We have to learn how to unlearn the harsh beliefs we hold of ourselves because they're holding us back. You can do the things that you watch others do. You can start your own business. You can make a million dollars. You can be an amazing friend, partner and parent all at the same time. You CAN.

If you realize at least part of what’s holding you back might actually be you, I know you’ll get enormous value from this free masterclass.

We’ll tackle 3 nasty mental habits that hold us back and drain our mental health. I promise you won’t want to miss it.

I want to share the secret that will lead to better mental health and a better life. I am so grateful for the opportunity to share this with you and I want you there.

Register now so we can tackle those intrusive thoughts next Wednesday, March 9th. I promise I’ll help get you there.

And remember, you CAN…and you will…and I can’t wait to see it all. 🔥

Until next week 💗

Nora
