#8 When They Deflate You Like a Balloon
Manage episode 484245749 series 3655591
Ever felt like someone popped your dream balloon the second you said it out loud?
Let's unpack why people deflate your dreams, how to protect your energy, and what to do when someone says, “I hope that works out for you” (you know...with that tone...).
In this episode, we share our current struggles and heartfelt stories about what it’s like to share your dreams and goals with others only to be met with silence, skepticism, or unsolicited logistics. Whether you're leaving a stable career, moving cross-country on a whim, or starting your own podcast, this one’s for the dreamers who’ve felt the air leave the room when they spoke their truth.
We get into:
- Why people project their fears onto your dreams
- The #1 reason women abandon their dreams
- How to reinflate your energy balloon when it’s been stomped on
- What NOT to say when someone tells you a big dream: how you can be a dream holder for others
- Why validation and curiosity matter more than questions
- Your new weekly Tarot spread by Heidi
If you've ever wondered why it’s so damn hard to say “I want this” out loud—or if you’re feeling judged for wanting more—this episode will lift you right back up, or at a minimum show you that you're not alone!
Remember you don’t need a business plan to believe in your dream. If it feels aligned, that’s reason enough.
