The Hidden Beliefs Quietly Holding You Back at Work

The podcast explores the concept of "blocking beliefs" and how they can limit personal and professional growth. Muriel Wilkins, executive coach and author of "Leadership Unblocked," discusses how these beliefs, often rooted in past successes, can become obstacles as individuals advance in their careers. One common belief is the need to have everything done immediately, which can lead to burnout and disengagement among team members. Wilkins advocates for expanding one's range of beliefs rather than eliminating them, allowing for greater adaptability and agency. The conversation also addresses the limiting belief of not belonging, particularly in the context of systemic challenges and societal conditioning, and emphasizes the importance of reframing personal narratives to foster a sense of belonging.
