188. How To See The Blind Spots That Keep You Overwhelmed And Stuck
You know what you want. You're doing all the "right" things. But somehow, you're still stuck in the same patterns—replaying decisions, second-guessing yourself, feeling like you're working harder but getting nowhere.
What if the thing holding you back isn't something you're doing wrong…but something you literally can't see? Your blind spots aren't obvious. That's the whole point. They show up as patterns you keep repeating, decisions you keep avoiding, or reactions you can't quite explain.
Today, I'm walking you through exactly how to spot what's been invisible to you—so you can finally move forward without the constant mental fog and decision fatigue.
In this episode, you'll discover:
- Why your blind spots keep you reacting instead of responding (and how that's draining your energy)
- The most common blind spots that stop ambitious women
- The exact questions to ask yourself when you feel stuck but don't know why (below!)
- How to stop overthinking every decision by seeing the pattern underneath it
- Why awareness alone isn't enough—and what to do after you see the blind spot!
After listening, you'll be able to recognize when you're stuck in a blind spot and know exactly what to do about it. No more spinning your wheels wondering why nothing's shifting.
The 5 questions to see your blind spot:
- What am I doing (or not doing) because it’s what I think I “SHOULD” do…and what is the ripple effect?
- Why is this pattern bothering you so much?
- By NOT doing the thing you want to be doing, what is this protecting you from?
- What do you actually care about in your business? What value is at the core of your business?
- What would happen if you prioritized the thing that you actually care about in your business?
