Your self-worth sets the tone for everything. From your relationships to your career. In this Encore Episode, I break down six powerful, science-backed strategies to help you raise your self-worth, strengthen your identity, and stop depending on external validation for confidence. Whether you’ve been stuck in cycles of comparison, people-pleasing, or self-doubt, these tools will help you build inner trust and finally feel good in your own skin.
We explore why self-worth is different from self-esteem, how your thoughts shape your identity, and what to do when you don’t feel “good enough.” You’ll also get actionable steps to start rewiring the way you see yourself without needing approval from anyone else. This one’s for anyone who’s ready to stop shrinking and start owning their space.

Do you find yourself obsessively replaying conversations, worrying about what you should’ve said, or overanalysing situations long after they’ve passed? You’re not alone, and your brain might be stuck in a loop it doesn’t know how to exit.
In this episode, I break down the psychology and neuroscience of rumination, why it happens, and how to stop the mental spiral before it drags you down. You'll learn the difference between productive reflection and toxic overthinking, and how to retrain your brain to let go.
Topics include:
Why the brain loves repeating negative thoughts
The role of your default mode network in overthinking
How to interrupt obsessive mental loops in real time
Cognitive strategies to move on and reclaim your peace
Simple tools to manage regret, self-blame, and “what if” thinking
If you’ve ever laid awake at night overanalysing a conversation or can’t seem to let go of something that already happened, this episode is MADE for you.

Are you holding on too tightly to outcomes and wondering why things keep slipping away? In this episode, I’m breaking down exactly why desperation leads to delusion and how to shift out of it. You’ll learn 9 powerful steps to detach with intention, stop sabotaging your own success, and finally become magnetic to the things you want most. Whether it’s relationships, career goals, or clarity in your life, detachment isn’t about not caring, it’s about choosing peace over panic.
I'll unpack the psychology behind why chasing can push things further away, how to rewire your need for control, and how to recognise the signs of obsession disguised as ambition.
If you’re tired of the constant overthinking, anxiety, or low-key obsession with getting it "right," this one’s for you.
Included in this ep:
The psychology of detachment
Why desperation warps reality
How to get what you want by caring less
9 actionable mindset shifts you can start today

Hi. Which city are you going to move to, if it's not a secret? I also recently moved my production facility, except that the usual movers weren't enough because of different conditions and circumstances. Thanks to an acquaintance, I was advised by Transload warehouse https://pnwwarehousing.com/transload.html, which moves products within the ports of Tacoma and Port of Seattle. The company itself is based in Puyallup, Washington. They moved everything as quickly as possible, so now I am already developing in a new place.
Thank you, I'm just about to move my business to another city.
Hello it’s about 1 week that I can’t play your podcasts any more! Is there any problem?

Omg majdub means crazy in arabic :(
Thanks for this! I definitely have some elements of imposter syndrome and am driven by a fear of failure rather than a need to succeed, even at this stage in my career where I should know better! This was super helpful and articulated some things that I can work on. PS. This was my first time listening to your show, I have a playlist full of your content to work through now!
