#175: When It Feels “Too Good To Be True...

Mary Jelkovsky
About this episode

If you’ve ever felt like something or someone is “too good to be true” then this episode is for you. Mary talks about a model for strengthening your sense of self-worth, so that you finally feel worthy of things that are good AND true.

Remember: when what you WANT does not align with what you BELIEVE, you will experience an inner battle filled with doubt, fear, and self-sabotage. As you’re figuring out what you want, do not neglect the power of your beliefs.
