Breaking Free from the Grind
Ep #162 - How to take things less personally at work
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
You get one piece of feedback… and suddenly you’re questioning everything.
A colleague pushes back… and it feels like they’re undermining you.
Someone else gets promoted… and now you’re wondering if you’re falling behind.
Nothing actually changed except the meaning you made about it.
In this episode of Breaking Free from the Grind, I’m breaking down how to stop taking things personally at work so you can stay focused, clear-headed, and in control no matter what’s happening around you.
- The hidden reason high performers take things more personally and how it quietly turns you into a reactive (not effective) leader
- The 3 situations that trigger it most: negative feedback, pushback, and comparison, and exactly how to neutralize each one in real time
- The simple ABC framework (Awareness, Breathing, Change) to regulate your emotions, shift your mindset, and respond like a calm, locked-in leader
If you’re tired of spiraling, overthinking, or letting other people’s actions throw you off…
This episode will show you how to stay unbothered and lead at your level.
