Denial. It’s not something that anyone wants to talk about, right? But we all have experience with it. That’s why I’m so excited to introduce you to Dr. Jane Greer. Dr. Jane Greer is a Marriage and Family Therapist, Psychotherapist, author, radio host, and creator of “SHRINK WRAP,” the popular commentary on what we can learn from the trials and triumphs of not only celebrity but all relationships. Through her media collaborations and professional insights, Dr. Greer is recognized as a leading national expert in love and relationships. She’s the author of six books, including her latest, Am I Lying To Myself? How to Overcome Denial and See the Truth.
My conversation with Dr. Greer was super enlightening. She has a really interesting perspective on denial and why it can hold us back, especially when it comes to confidence.
In this episode of the Contagious Confidence Podcast, we talk about:
- What is denial?
- How we can recognize denial in ourselves and others
- How to handle someone who is in denial about a problem or bad behavior
- How denial impacts our confidence
