225. Overcome your fear of being perceived
Our fear of being perceived is more than just social anxiety, its a real phobia around being scrutinised, observed and primarily judged by others. It's also greatly limiting your potential and ability to be your true self. But there is a way through, there is a way to escape the constant fixation on what others are thinking about you. In today's episode, we discuss:
- The origins and effects of scopophobia
- How our fear of being perceived is both a social and specific phobia
- Why do we worry about what other people think?
- Perfectionism and our fear of being perceived
- The impact of early childhood experiences
- Three mental shifts to overcome your fear of being perceived
