Kuvaus

This week, we are talking about something that I genuinely think is shaping our careers, our creativity, our relationships, and our confidence more than we realise, which is the fear of being cringe. I did a bonus episode on this over a year ago now and it got such a huge response, and since then I’ve come to genuinely think the main thing that holds most people back is not lack of talent, not lack of ideas, not even lack of discipline. It’s fear of what other people think. So this episode is basically me unpacking all of that, the psychology behind why we care so much about what people think, why we massively overestimate how much people are paying attention to us, and the practical things that have genuinely helped me stop letting fear of perception make my decisions for me. + CHAPTERS 0:00: Intro 1:34: The Context 7:29: Step One: Shrinking the audience 14:38: Step Two: Redefining the evidence 17:01: Step Three: Putting it into practice 19:12: Looking back + SIGN UP TO THE WORKING HARD NEWSLETTER: https://graceb.myflodesk.com/k0sfhlac34 + SOPHIE TEA'S EPISODE: https://youtu.be/o-G4jPyLNWA?si=E_X7Dq-I18o4Zx2j EMMA'S EPISODE: https://youtu.be/mPn1JFfwfSE?si=5ZTOxFZM5LIFfmKK + FOLLOW THE PODCAST Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/workinghardpod/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@workinghardpodcast + DILEMMA SUBMISSION If you'd like to submit any dilemmas to the podcast to be answered in the bonus episodes, please send them to podcast@grace-beverley.com with the subject beginning DILEMMAS or DM us @workinghardpod on Instagram! + MY LINKS: https://gracebeverley.komi.io/ + RETROGRADE, SHREDDY, TALA and THE PRODUCTIVITY METHOD are my own businesses, therefore any mention of them - whilst not being a sponsorship - is monetarily endorsed.

How to get out of your mid-year slump (& set yourself up for the next 6 months)

Today’s episode is for anyone who started the year feeling very organised and possibly even slightly insufferable about their goals, you might have even listened to our full new year series and is now mid-year and in a big fat slump. We're going to get you out of it here & now!

How to Build Wealth in Your 20s & 30s Without Giving Up the Life You Want

This episode is a guide to building financial freedom and being radically transparent about how to do it. Today I'm joined by Mia McGrath, who you’ll probably know from her super transparent money journey online, she went from earning a starting salary in her junior fashion job to being on the road to her first million, and she's documented every step of the way, super transparently. She has a fascinating story and was so open as to how that's impacted her life and her attitude to her finances.

Why your life hasn't changed (no matter how hard you've tried)

Now I LOVE personal growth, I’m very aware that I have built my career on talking about systems and habits and discipline. But I also know firsthand how frustrating it is when you follow all the steps and nothing really changes at the level you hoped it would. So today I want to go past the ten step lists, not because they are useless, but because they are incomplete on their own, and I want to talk about why your life might not have changed even though you have genuinely been trying really hard. Thank you so much to the brilliant John Amaechi for being my expert for this episode, if you haven't watched our episode from two years ago, it's here: https://youtu.be/Yp5omd2s6Yo?si=eQ1rI7O_hDNAGM9B You can buy his book and read his substack here: https://linktr.ee/itsnotmagic + SIGN UP TO THE WORKING HARD NEWSLETTER: https://graceb.myflodesk.com/k0sfhlac34 + FOLLOW THE PODCAST Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/workinghardpod/?hl=en TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@workinghardpodcast + DILEMMA SUBMISSION If you'd like to submit any dilemmas to the podcast to be answered in the bonus episodes, please send them to podcast@grace-beverley.com with the subject beginning DILEMMAS or DM us @workinghardpod on instagram! + MY LINKS: https://gracebeverley.komi.io/ + RETROGRADE, SHREDDY, TALA and THE PRODUCTIVITY METHOD are my own businesses, therefore any mention of them - whilst not being a sponsorship - is monetarily endorsed.

A step-by-step guide to finding your dream life and actually making it happen with Simon Squibb

I wanted to talk to Simon, because his whole thing isn’t really “quit your job and become a millionaire”, it’s much more about building a life that actually feels like yours and being honest about the fact that most people already know what they want, they’ve just convinced themselves they can’t have it. We had some really interesting debates around work, money, privilege, purpose and what actually makes a “good” life, which made the whole conversation feel much more honest and nuanced and hopefully makes you question whether the thing you keep putting off is maybe the exact thing you should stop ignoring. I hope you enjoy listening!! + SIMON SQUIBB His book, What's Your Dream: https://l1nq.com/b4lo0n3 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/simonsquibb/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@simonsquibb + SIGN UP TO THE WORKING HARD NEWSLETTER: https://graceb.myflodesk.com/k0sfhlac34 + FOLLOW THE PODCAST Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/workinghardpod/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@workinghardpodcast + DILEMMA SUBMISSION If you'd like to submit any dilemmas to the podcast to be answered in the bonus episodes, please send them to podcast@grace-beverley.com with the subject beginning DILEMMAS or DM us @workinghardpod on Instagram! + MY LINKS: https://gracebeverley.komi.io/ + RETROGRADE, SHREDDY, TALA and THE PRODUCTIVITY METHOD are my own businesses, therefore any mention of them - whilst not being a sponsorship - is monetarily endorsed.
