When we reflect back on our successes, it’s normal for our sense of pride to swell up a little.
It took hard work to get where you’ve gotten.
But there’s another element of every success story that doesn’t always get enough of our attention.
All of those good things that seem to happen without any effort on your part… the things that take place behind the scenes, you didn’t do them. But somebody did.
You see, the narrative we’re told about being “self-made”, well it just isn’t accurate. Because somewhere, someone did something to help facilitate the chain of “good things” that got us here.
This is how we open ourselves up to a better story—one of connection, gratitude, and the quiet support that makes the journey possible.
This week, Karlee emphasizes the importance of recognizing and normalizing the unearned gifts and support we receive from allies, mentors, strangers, and guides, seen and unseen. Because if you’re not telling the story of being self-made, you get to tell a story of appreciation. And that changes everything.
In this episode, you’ll learn to recognize the gifts, both big and small, that are available to you now and along your way. You’ll hear personal anecdotes and a handful of client stories that demonstrate how unexpected opportunities and moments of unearned goodness impact success stories. You’ll also get a simple prompt to help you reflect on when, where, and how the gifts you’ve benefited from have shown up in your life.
If you’re ready to start weaving more appreciation into your success story, then this episode is for you.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- (4:14) Gifts that deserve more recognition
- (7:08) The egocentricity of “self-made”
- (9:36) Considering your allies
- (11:32) Why success is a collective effort
