284 // How to be Less Self-Conscious

RACHAEL KABLE
About this episode

Hello and welcome to episode 284 of The Mindful Kind podcast. 

In this episode, you'll learn about The Spotlight Effect and how it can amplify feelings of self-consciousness. You'll also discover three strategies to help reduce the impact of The Spotlight Effect, including:

  • Remind yourself about the real impacts of The Spotlight Effect
  • Change your perspective by asking yourself, "Will this matter in 5 years?" 
  • Take a look around and acknowledge that the majority of the people will be experiencing The Spotlight Effect, too, which means they're much more preoccupied with their own mistakes and flaws than paying attention to yours.

Thank you to BetterHelp for sponsoring this episode of The Mindful Kind podcast. Head over to betterhelp.com/themindfulkind to receive 10% off your first month. 

Thank you for listening and I hope you have a wonderful week, Mindful Kind.
