Since it's Halloween, let's talk about the things that are really scary.
Scarier than ghosts, than Freddy Krueger in your dreams. Scarier even than Michael Myers chasing you with a knife...
..and likely the things that cause a stronger bu****le clenching reaction than the typical Halloween spookiness.
1. Imposter syndrome
I'm not good enough to... Who am I to... What if they all find out I don't believe in myself? We have all had situations where we have felt this way, felt like we didn't deserve what we have, that we were unworthy. 7/10 scary!
2. Fear of being seen
The fancy technical term is Scopophobia, and is incredibly related to #1 above. We hide our thoughts, our feelings and ourselves because we fear being judged negatively. 9/10 scary!
3. Overthinking
The rumination, runaway thoughts, sleepless nights because you can't let a thought go. It takes us away from being present with the people we care about, our work, and so much more. 10/10 scary!
Weird and Strong is changing to focus on helping people build Mental Strength to be strong enough to work with these fears.
We will still be coaching and competing in the sport of Weightlifting, and our primary goal is to help people build strength in all areas of their lives and make these three scary things something we laugh about.
Our first new program is Overcome Overthinking, and send us a DM to talk more about the details!
