Unmasking the Power of Core Beliefs

Sabrina shared a powerful insight: our core beliefs – often rooted in childhood experiences – shape our thoughts, actions, and emotions. For many, these beliefs might be "not good enough," "not important," or "not valued." These beliefs can manifest as anxiety and hinder our ability to reach our full potential.

The Impact of Over commitment on Our Core Beliefs

We often overcommit ourselves, trying to be everything to everyone. This can reinforce those negative core beliefs. Sabrina emphasizes the importance of self-discovery and identifying our values to build a strong foundation for our identity.

• Become aware of your anxiety triggers: Recognize patterns and identify subtle signs of anxiety.

• Create a plan: Address potential challenges proactively by creating a plan of action.
• Challenge negative thoughts: Question the validity of anxious thoughts and replace them with positive affirmations.
