What sneaky belief is keeping you from sharing your light with the world?

Quiz Questions

• 1.
  A close friend gives you a compliment. You…

  • A.
    Smile and say "thanks." It feels good to make her happy. You feel reassured that she’ll stick around.
  • B.
    Glance side to side saying, “who, ME?!” — she MUST be mistaken because you don’t believe you ever do anything right.
  • C.
    Feel guilty and immediately want to shrink or slink away.
  • D.
    Say "Awww, thanks!" This brightened your day!
• 2.
  Something AMAZING just happened in your life. Who do you call first?

  • A.
    You keep it to yourself. You don’t want to bother anyone. Plus, it might make them feel bad about themselves when they hear about your success.
  • B.
    Your closest friends. You know they'll be excited for you.
  • C.
    You share your news online with a group of strangers. You desperately want to share it with your friends and family, but you think they’ll judge you for being full of yourself.
  • D.
    No one, because you’re embarassed. You don’t believe you deserve your recent success — so you don’t think anyone else will, either.
• 3.
  You’re struck with an idea that excites you. What do you do?

  • A.
    Write it in your journal and keep it secret — you’d rather skip the scrutiny you’d endure by telling your colleagues about your idea. You know they wouldn’t understand it.
  • B.
    You want to tell your colleagues, but you talk yourself out of it. You don’t think they’ll care. It’s probably a bad idea anyway…
  • C.
    You tell your colleagues about your idea in all of its beautiful glory!
  • D.
    You tell your colleagues, but you downplay the amazingness of your idea. It feels too extravagant to say it out loud.
• 4.
  You meet your co-worker for coffee. They kindly offer to pay for yours as a treat. You…

  • A.
    Politely decline. You feel uncomfortable and undeserving of such a kind gesture.
  • B.
    Say "thanks!" and appreciate their generosity and kindness.
  • C.
    Refuse. You’d feel selfish for accepting the offer when you can afford your own.
  • D.
    Say “no thanks” — you don’t want to burden them with the bill, so you decide you didn’t actually want coffee in the first place. You watch them drink their coffee while secretly wishing you had one of your own. Maybe you’ll grab one at the coffee shop on the way home after you part ways…
• 5.
  You’re invited to a party. What are you thinking to yourself?

  • A.
    “I’ll bring something store-bought to the party. I don’t want people to think I’m trying to show off by making something special.”
  • B.
    “How did I get invited to this? I’m surprised they want me around. They probably only invited me to be nice…”
  • C.
    “I wonder what I can bring to the party to help out… Maybe a dessert or two? And something else to snack on. And drinks, too — just in case they don’t have enough for me.”
  • D.
    "What on earth do I WEAR? Nothing too extravagant..."
• 6.
  You receive unexpected money. How do you react?

  • A.
    You feel grateful. You use the money to invest in yourself.
  • B.
    You treat yourself to something nice, but you don’t tell anyone about it. It feels too showy.
  • C.
    Give it to one of your friends who could really use it right now. You know she'll want to be closer with you once you prove to her how much you love and support her.
  • D.
    You try to figure out what you did to deserve it. You’re consumed with guilt and try your best to reject it.
• 7.
  Your family is visiting for the holidays. The group is trying to decide where to go for dinner. You…

  • A.
    Stay out of the decision. You don’t think anyone cares about your opinion anyway.
  • B.
    Suggest a reasonable option. Something quaint and not too fancy. You don’t want your family to get the impression that you’re living large and boujee.
  • C.
    Suggest your favorite restaurants. You'd love to share the local gems with your family.
  • D.
    Agree with everyone else’s ideas, even though you’d rather share one of your favorite new places with them. You don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings.
• 8.
  You’re presented with an incredible opportunity. You know it would launch your career into the stratosphere, but you hesitate to follow through. Why?

  • A.
    You want to think through the pros and cons first — to make sure your decision will benefit you in the long run.
  • B.
    You already have way too much on your plate because you’re taking care of everyone else in your life. You know you’d have to give up or delegate some of your other responsibilities in order to pursue the opportunity, and that makes you feel guilty. You’re worried that if you do, your loved ones will get mad and turn their backs on you.
  • C.
    Good things don’t happen to you. This must be a joke from the universe. You don’t want to get your hopes up, only to then be disappointed.
  • D.
    When you picture yourself at that next level — it feels too pretentious. That kind of success means more people would be listening to you, and it makes you uncomfortable to receive too much attention and be in the spotlight.

  You don’t think you’re good enough.From the moment your eyes open in the morning to the time you go to bed, your head is swirling with judgmental thoughts of not being “good enough” — at anything. And that harsh inner critic of yours? She’s relentless and unforgiving — constantly insisting you’re a sub-par professional, partner, daughter, sister, friend, mother, boss, business owner, woman… the list goes on.You’ve been letting her run the show because, deep down, you believe there’s something inherently wrong with you. And your inner critic has been validating the idea that you’re essentially a bad person and undeserving of anything good in life.So when something good does happen, this sneaky belief kicks into overdrive, and you end up sabotaging yourself. You subconsciously feel as if you must mess up to offset it — because good things shouldn’t happen to people who don’t deserve them. Sister, let’s face it… This belief is NOT serving you well! It’s keeping you hidden and forcing you to play small. As a woman, you were likely taught this damaging belief about yourself from day one. You learned there was something wrong with you — so now you don’t trust yourself to fully embody your gifts, talents, and desires. This fear feels very powerful and real. But it’s based on a belief that’s simply NOT TRUE. Once you develop awareness of it, it loses its power — which means you’ll be free to finally shine on! And can I let you in on a beautiful secret? You don’t even need me to tell you all of this about yourself. You already know!
