Manage episode 508045668 series 3300163
Welcome to Get Obsessed, your go-to personal development podcast where we break through barriers and help you create the life you desire! In this episode, Mika dives deep into an essential mindset shift: "Proximity Doesn’t Equal Loyalty." Discover why the people closest to you—family, lifelong friends, or coworkers—aren't always your biggest cheerleaders when it comes to your personal growth and transformation.
Key Takeaways:
- Why Proximity Doesn’t Equal Support: Just because someone is part of your inner circle doesn’t mean they’ll cheer for your dreams or personal development.
- Spotting Hidden Doubt: Learn to recognize when doubt is disguised as love or concern from your friends and family.
- Common Patterns of Discouragement: Understand phrases and behaviors that subtly undermine your confidence, such as generalizing your identity ("You never follow through") or fixating on fears instead of possibilities.
- Protecting Your Progress: Mika shares three actionable steps to keep your momentum strong—naming the behavior, asking clarifying questions, and making small, low-risk bets to prove your naysayers wrong.
- How to Cultivate Real Loyalty: Build loyalty to your dreams and self, attract the right supporters, and set healthy boundaries with those who want to keep you playing small.
What You’ll Learn:
- How to detect subtle signals of sabotage—even from well-meaning loved ones
- Simple self-coaching strategies to reframe negative feedback and stay motivated
- How taking small actions builds unstoppable confidence and attracts the right people to your growth journey
